I'm cryin

It was emotional - I was thinking of JB and especially Juli. Years of heading to basketball games to see them play. Jimmy, Buddy and Jamie are all graduates. It’s a new life for all of them. If not already empty nested, Jim and Juli will be soon. That family has been through so much pressure - JB’s tragic accident, that stupid horrible tweet about it, Juli getting mugged, Buddy’s ‘punch’ and all the reactions ending his career on the bench, not counting all the doubters regarding whether the Boeheim boys were even high D1 capable, losing season - on and on. I saw Juli crying after the game and I can only imagine the flood of emotions she was feeling. They have to be so very proud yet sad too that part of their shared experiences with their children is over.

I appreciate you sharing that perspective. While I was aware of all of those things, reflecting on it more, you're right, the Boeheim family has been through a ton recently. Just some incredible things that happened. As much as I'm frustrated right now with Boeheim, I still love the coach.
 
That post game presser was the best moment of the season. An absolute must watch
Yes, but the star, once again, was Buddy. Don't get me wrong, Jimmy and dad were great too, but Buddy just layed it completely out there for everyone and took full responsibility multiple times. Two very classy kids.

Hands down. Without a doubt
 
Sad ending to a great Buddy buckets run. The NIT looks doubtful ,we would have to bump from the mock brackets WVA 15-15 or Vandy 17-15 to get in.
