Message: [QUOTE="Waltdods, post: 2544745, member: 2932"] If an argument is based on part on the premise that Loyola Chicago has a more talented team than Syracuse, I think it needs some rethinking. Look, this is a great run. Boeheim is a great coach. But he was also a great coach when Syracuse crapped out early in 2010, and when he went four years without a tournament win in the mid-aughts. There is a lot of luck and contingency in small sample sizes, even when those samples come in the NCAA tournament. (And of course he missed the tournament last year, and barely made it in the other two years.) That's really all I'm arguing - not that he's anything less than a great coach, but that he's not the greatest (or better than K). [/QUOTE]
