For all you guys who were gonna call in - JBs weekly show is now live

God forbid JB be realistic. Hope he never reads this forum after a loss.
 
Well I can tell you after we got smoked by Saint johns the show ended 10 minutes early after my call.

I just simply said I was confused how a team could beat us by thirtysomething points at home when NOT one player on St John’s we would recruit.... that’s all I can tell you
 
Syracuse should never be in the position of losing before the game even starts, against anybody. If you aren’t here to win, it’s time to call it a career.

He's being realistic and setting modest expectations for this fickle fan base.
 
Step up and ask your question, or stop begging others to do your dirty work for you.

Steve can word the question better than me. He is best suited given his relationship with JB as a regular caller.

There's no game this Sat so I am thinking a debate between you and Cuse Runner, we will pick 5 subjects and winner gets the Pfizer vaccine. Can't wait to get your take on the yankees payroll, lock down curfews, COVID in teens and young adults and Craft beer vs the blue collar beer, CR will be fired up to defend his Coors lights and White Claws.
 
Matt Park is a tough listen, period.

I like Matt as the bball radio guy, think he does a fairly good job. For football he's death, I defy you to listen to him and the other dude and have any semblance of what is happening, it's unlistenable. I haven't listened to the coaches show in decades but he's not the guy to play off of JB. He kept veering off into weird areas and bringing up stuff unrelated to the topic at hand. Brutal.
 
If only there was some advanced statistic that considers if a shot is a 3 or 2 and still showed that Buddy is much much below almost every member of the team.

I mentioned earlier in the week there are 116 D-1 teams that currently average more than what Buddy's career average is from three.
 
A few counterpoints to Mr. Statistics Jim Boeheim:

- Buddy Boeheim's eFG% is 44.2%, 50th of the 56 ACC players who qualified. Joe Girard is 45th. That is definitely not good enough.
- The offense we run right now is 33rd in the country in offensive efficiency. Not terrible. The defense is 60th. Probably about where I'd expect to be, given we are middle to lower-half of the ACC.
- Our offenses over the last 10 years (a decade, by math):
This season: 33rd
Last season: 21st
2018-19: 59th
2017-18: 135th
2016-17: 30th
2015-16: 50th
2014-15: 117th
2013-14: 28th
2012-13: 26th
2011-12: 7th
This season ranks 6th out of the 10 years in terms of offensive efficiency. Not "one of the best" in the last decade.
- I will not be buying lottery tickets anytime soon, but I do expect Syracuse University basketball to stay within 3 touchdowns of any conference opponent it plays.

Jim Boeheim has jumped the shark. It is as simple as that.
 
"Marek's our best ball handler and defender, how long do you want to take him out for" Answering Matt's question on playing some of the other players per fan complaints.

Defends Buddy and says he's been "a little off". Says hes shootign the equivalent of 42-43% from the 2 being at 27% from the 3.

JC! Did he really say that about Marek? If either 1 of those things were true (which they are not even remotely true), then he and the entire staff have done a terrible job recruiting and should be fired immediately. Please tell me that is not really JB's comment. A 6'9" PF better not be your best ball handler unless his name is Lebron James.

It's possible he meant for the center position but yes he absolutely said that. It was toward the beginning of the show and I was trying to do a few things at once so I missed who he was talking about before Marek (he was defending other players playing a lot) but he absolutely said that about Marek.
