Fire Autry

I trust the opinions of former players and coaches over any of the rest of us. They know more and have better access to the facts than we do.

Maybe in 2017 but not anymore. This is a new era and requires new thinking.

You need clear coaching tactics, smart scouting to find transfer portal talent, $$$ when you need to break a deadlock for a player.

I would add that now they have to have some charisma/personality to be able to get the NIL money from the fans, community, and big-time donors.

Definitely. Gotta have some personality and conviction.
 
So you dont think the problem is coaching?
Not saying that, not saying in game coaching is the issue either. I know I have been watching SU since Boeheim was an assistant. Went to SU his first four years as head coach. I was a gym rat, spent time playing hoops with a lot of the players. Got to talk to Bernie Fine quite a bit and JAB a little. I have coached several youth teams. All that being said I know that most of our former players and coaches know more than we do. We might want to measure their opinions with our own. Their knowledge of a team with ours, and give those opinions a lot of credence. We are all disappointed

I quite frankly do not care about former players opinions, especially when it consists of former players that attack people like Dick Vitale for supporting Caitlin Clark.

Completely different subject and situation. Not at all germaine to the discussion regarding the decision to retain Coach Autry or to start over with new coaches and players.
