It doesn't seem you bothered to read the link I shared or to think about anything I said. JB has made changes throughout his tenure in many aspects of what Cuse does. How do you think he's managed to outlast so many other coaches and win 1000 games? I never said he would or should "reinvent" the program. Those are your words. I said shift how we do some things. Those shifts can be subtle but impactful and they happen every season and fans aren't privy to everything going on behind the scenes. An example of a bigger move:  When recruiting slumped in the late 90s he took Fine off the road and made Troy Weaver and Hop his primary recruiters, which led to another sustained run of success. Sure, Boeheim also prizes consistency, but he's not afraid to change when change is needed. This recruiting class actually looks a lot like Jay Wright's first few classes after his move away from pursuing lots of McDonalds all American types who were only concerned with their draft stock towards more under the radar and program type guys. Look, I'm concerned about Boeheim being 72 and refusing to step away, and being set in his ways (he's ALWAYS been stubborn though). But these issues aren't black and white. ...The best way to sustain the success of the program (and to help Babers in his turnaround of football), imo, is to do a major renovation of the Dome and not cheap out on it.
