Great article about a great guy (one of the least well-known members of the Orange team).

‘Coach Clary’: Meet the man who keeps Syracuse men’s basketball safe

Cool story and something I never knew.

Great story. Now, we all need to watch for him.

Interesting

Such a great read! So Clary was there for the Sports Coat Game and tried to help calm Coach down. But I was a little confused about something. The article said there was concern about some of our players. Was that about them getting into trouble or breaking team rules? It sounded that way. In any event, Clary does us a great service (even cheering up a player who got chewed out by Boeheim).

Guy needs a raise..

Always wondered who he was and thought he had a pretty cool job.

"Clary keeps an eye over SU players because, in the few years surrounding 2010, he said the program was “having some problems with our players.” Stan Kissel, a former director of basketball operations, asked Clary to travel with them. Kissel noticed “certain players were giving us a hard time,” Clary recalled. "

You can read between the lines on that one. I'm not gonna name names.

Underrated Stan Kissel reference here, too.

Does he need an assistant?

I hear Maryland is interested in him

Thamel has him at the top of his list.

He’s looking for someone with a little more muscle.

I'm going to guess it wasn't Wes Johnson or Brandon Triche.

Jim what year did you graduate from Webster? You look like you would fit right in with some of the football guys "The Beef Company" back in the late 80s...

 

[JarHeadJim]

1988, They ran the Beef company article in 1989.
The beef company consisted of Kyell Adams (SU, Sect 5 Hall of Fame) Dick Ras (Villanova ,Sect 5 Hall of Fame) Phil Nuciola and Brad Kessler.

Sweet you know a bunch of older siblings of friends and football guys I met when there. Also you forgot the 5th member...current superintendent of Fairport and my former d-coordinator at Web!

Brett Provenzano, he wasn't one of the members of the beef company.

Safe assumption

 

[cuseinseattle]

Great article. I had no idea he was involved with the program but it makes a lot of sense.
