Welcome to National Ice Cream Sundae Day!


Ice cream sundaes—which are ice cream desserts with one or more scoops of ice cream with sauces or syrups, often with other toppings such as fruits, maraschino cherries, nuts, sprinkles, and whipped cream—are enjoyed on National Ice Cream Sundae Day. The "classic" ice cream sundae has vanilla ice cream topped with a flavored sauce or syrup, such as chocolate or strawberry, as well as whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Some variations of the sundae include the banana split, knickerbocker glory, turtle sundae, and tin roof sundae. Sundaes are also often topped with heated sauces or syrups such as hot fudge, butterscotch, and caramel.

There are a few stories as to how and where ice cream sundaes got their start. One says they got their start in Two Rivers, Wisconsin, in 1881. There, George Hallauer ordered an ice cream dish at Ed Berner's soda fountain. His dish gained popularity, and other nearby fountains began serving it. It was George Giffy, who owned a fountain in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, who decided to serve it only on Sundays—hence the name it received.

Terrence Roberts: NCAA should restore Jim Boeheim’s vacated wins because of new NIL rules (PS; $; Waters)


In 2005, Syracuse basketball players Terrence Roberts and Hakim Warrick attended a summer basketball tournament at the Tri-Valley YMCA in Oneida.

From 2004 to 2007, Roberts and another former SU player Billy Edelin received payments from the Oneida YMCA for mentoring kids and performing other duties such as working the clock at a basketball game.

Under new NCAA rules allowing college athletes the right to profit off their own name, image and likeness, Roberts, Warrick and Edelin would be able to earn money for appearing at summer camps.

How much is Syracuse’s Buddy Boeheim earning off his NIL deals? (Mike’s Mailbox) (PS; $; Waters)

A lot of outstanding questions make this a very interesting week in Mike’s Mailbox.

We’ve got everything from Name, Image and Likeness to questions to ones about Syracuse players in the Olympics and the eligibility of current SU players.

And we’ve got one that turned up a 27-year-old “record’' that Marek Dolezaj broke this past season that no one noticed until a reader asked about it. That is why I love my readers!

Q: Do we know what percentage Buddy Boeheim will get? Will all student-athletes be able to earn money? Who negotiates that? Each kid? What if no one wants to market a T-shirt for the third-string left fielder on the women’s softball team? Lots of questions about fairness and opportunity. It’s good for those who can benefit.

Earl L.

Mike:
Earl had quite a few questions about the NCAA’s new Name, Image and Likeness rules and Buddy Boeheim’s deals with Cameo and The Players Trunk, and he packed them all into one big paragraph of questions.

I don’t know exactly how much Buddy is earning from his deals.

Cameo gives its “talent” a 75% percent cut on video calls, and Boeheim is charging $100 per call. That would apparently mean he’s earning $75 per call.

JJ Starling Talks Syracuse Visit, Updates Recruitment (SI; McAllister)

JJ Starling has had a busy month of June, taking several visits to get a closer look at programs that have extended scholarship opportunities. One of those programs was Syracuse, the home town program. AllSyracuse.com caught up with Starling to discuss that visit and where his recruitment currently stands.

Q: How was the Syracuse visit?

Starling: "It was great. Being from Cuse, you kind of take everything for granted. But being on campus and around the players and coaches, it was a different feel that I didn't expect to have. It was a really, really great visit. The facility is nice. All that."

Q: What was it like hanging out with the players?

Starling: "They didn't have everybody on campus, so we were only able to play three on three. But it was great. I know some of the players already so our bond is already there. They were really cool. As you know, Symir's there. We're really, really close. He's like family. It was really good. They were just telling me it would be a great fit for me to come up there and play with them. Honestly, we didn't really talk about basketball too much. We were just having fun with each other, hanging out and playing games."

Q: What was the message from the Syracuse coaches?

Starling: "It was great. They were really cool. Their main message to me is they want me to come in and be a scorer for them. Be one of the main scorers. They were basically saying the 22 class is really important because they're going to have a lot of guards graduating. How it would be a big pickup if I go there. They already have some really good commits. They want me to come there and commit. That was just the main thing."

Syracuse Basketball: 4-star target enters rankings, has tons of new offers (itlh; Adler)

Syracuse basketball 2023 prospect Gavin Griffiths was flying under the radar on a national scale within his class, but he’s not any longer.

In mid-June, college coaches were able to start making direct contact with 2023 high-school players, and that has led to a bunch of new offers for Griffiths, who has been shining on the AAU circuit, according to several national analysts.



He’s already a top-75 prospect in the 2023 cycle according to one of the main recruiting services, and I believe that the talented 6-foot-7 wing is poised to climb even higher in the national rankings in the future.

The Orange coaching staff had seen the promise and potential of Griffiths early on, offering him a scholarship last October before things started to really heat up in his recruitment.

Hopefully, that the ‘Cuse began recruiting him in the early stages of his recruiting process will go a long way toward the Orange being a serious contender for Griffiths.

Syracuse basketball is seeing heightened competition for 2023 four-star Gavin Griffiths.

When recently updated its national rankings for the 2023 class, Griffiths went from being unranked to four stars and No. 71 overall in this cycle.

Founder of Elam Ending Picks Boeheim's Army to Win TBT (SI; McAllister)

Nick Elam, founder of the Elam Ending, is picking Boeheim's Army to win the 2021 The Basketball Tournament. Nick has Boeheim's Army beating Sideline Cancer in the championship game.

Boeheim's Army has loaded up the roster this year, adding two of the winningest TBT players in its history. DeAndre Kane and DJ Kennedy, who both won multiple TBT titles, have joined Boeheim's Army this year with Overseas Elite not participating. Kane and Kennedy join a roster that also includes Eric Devendorf, Tyler Lydon, Malachi Richardson, Chris McCullough, CJ Fair, Tyrese Rice, Paschal Chukwu, Andrew White and Keifer Sykes.

Boeheim's Army has typically fielded a roster that includes only former Syracuse players. There has been the occasional non-Orange alum, but never before like what is on the roster this year. Four non-Syracuse players is a lot when you evaluate Boeheim's Army roster historically. That said, there are still seven former Syracuse players on it, giving it a large Orange feel.

Is Syracuse Favorite Quadir Copeland the Nation’s”Best Kept Secret?” – Orange Fizz – Daily Syracuse Recruiting News & Team Coverage (orangefizz.net; Amendolara)

The summer has been good to Syracuse. Kamari Lands started it off right, as a top 25 player nationally committed back in April. That allowed the perennially critical summer months to be a little less pressurized. Then 4-star sharpshooter Justin Taylor followed suit, making the ’22 class one of the nation’s best. And Taylor stated he would help lure other recruits to the Hill, including Kyle Filipowski and Quadir Copeland.

“Flip” has offers from a handful of blue bloods including Duke, which has left Copeland overlooked by many in this equation. In fact, for most of his recruitment Copeland has been overshadowed by the entire class. The 6’6″ combo guard is ranked #142 nationally by 247 Sports for his class, and the 6th best player in his own state. Rivals is more complimentary, pinning him at 85th in the nation overall.

But scroll through message boards, YouTube videos, and social media and you’ll find a vocal group of believers. Many believed Copeland was headed to SU even before Taylor made his claim. A video by Jamie Shaw, who has more than 2.5K subscribers, asked whether Copeland is the Class of ’22’s “best kept secret?”

Which Direction Should SU Go At The Center Position? – Orange Fizz – Daily Syracuse Recruiting News & Team Coverage (oragnefizz.net; Bainbridge)


Syracuse basketball has had a mostly intriguing offseason marked by some exciting commitments. The additions of four-stars Kamari Lands in April and Justin Taylor in late June have jolted some excitement back into the program. That’s an important step to recoup the losses of several starters from last year and a tantalizing future star in Kadary Richmond.

Lands and Taylor are big gets, but the one thing that would tie Syracuse’s offseason together would be a big-time center commit. As of right now, there isn’t such a commitment, but you can’t blame SU for not trying.

Class of 2022 big men Kyle Filipowski (the #6 overall class of ‘22 center prospect by 247Sports) and Donovan Clingan (#8 on the same list) were both heavily recruited by Syracuse and generated their fair share of buzz. However, Clingan committed to UConn just five days ago, and Filipowski’s impending commitment to Duke is somewhat of a foregone conclusion as of the time of this writing.

With that in mind, where does Syracuse go from here at the five?

At the moment, it doesn’t appear SU has a ton of high-profile options. The only other true center listed as a Syracuse target by 247Sports other than Filipowksi is class of ‘22 center Tichyque Musaka, who doesn’t even have a star rating by the site’s metrics. Musaka is 6’10, 200 lbs out of San Jose, CA but remains somewhat of an unknown quantity. Syracuse has yet to offer Musaka, while others such as Georgetown, Illinois, and Kansas have already done so.

What's the best ever Syracuse Orange Men's Basketball Uniform? (cnycentral.com; Tamurian)

It's the middle of July, the college basketball season won't start for another three and a half months.

But make no mistake, Syracuse Basketball is hard at work for the upcoming campaign.

For the fans? It's time to ponder the lineup, how the team will look with so many new players and just how far the team can go.

Of course, that goes along with the important stuff.



Like what's your favorite SU Men's Hoops look.

We put it to a poll on Twitter, but before we get to those results, here were the choices:

The Current Look

Different variations of this style have been in play since the 2007-2008 season. There have been several changes, but overall they've stuck to this general template for 14 years which is usually a rough time table for SU sticking with one look over the years. It's associated with two final fours and many more Sweet 16's and features a clean modern look blended well with a nod to the past with the orange, white and blue checks along the side. Many fans though appear to like past editions more.
