I'm as excited as everyone else about having Gary Gait (and Dave Pietramala) as coaches.  However, as the dust settles, here's some questions I'm wondering about:
1) What does Gary think of the Scanlan situation?  Does he have a role in closing it out?  What are the "takeaways"?
2) What does he make of the on-the-field discipline problem that others have complained of (I'm thinking the fourth quarter against Georgetown).  How does he address that?  (I thought Gait's women's teams were very well coached but they also had their share of foul problems.)
3)  What about the "culture" issue? The last several championship coaches (I'm thinking, in particular, Tiffany and Shay) have suggested that it's a big deal.  Does Syracuse have a "culture" problem?  If so, how is it remedied?  As a related point, others have posted that some of the players are looking forward to next year's team.  If so, were some of the graduating seniors an issue?
4) How is the recruiting mission distributed among the coaches?  I can't help thinking that retaining March was as much about his recruiting success as it was his offensive prowess.  But you have to believe that a phone call from a GOAT is a pretty big deal.
4) Despite the hand-wringing (and I've done my share) when this team dominated the face-off dot it  beat the national champions twice.  How do we improve there?
