JB killing it this morning on Fox Business

[im4cuse]

Promoting the book. Host Stuart Varney says, "my producers told me you're a crumudgeon and if I ask you a political question, you'll show it to me". Asks the question anyway about the election results and JB gives a solid answer, especially for a hoop coach. Mixes in some humor too. Says what's next for him is to host a business talk show on TV, cuz he heard "it's easy".
As noted many times, it's so interesting that he treats the local people doing their job like crap for the most part (especially if they ask tough questions) but he's so accommodating for national press (with a few notable exceptions like the ESPN incident).
Bottom line, he's a complex, interesting, at times thoughtful guy. Funny too: Varney called him "an institution" at syracuse, JB said either that "or in an institution".

Can you post a link to the video?

What happened to the video that was just there?

JB was awesome!

I don't think this was the video the OP was referring to; however, it is a good one.

Very well done with thoughtful answers that weren't just the standard regurgitated nonsense you hear most of the time. So glad we have this guy as our HC- & he'll be greatly missed when he's done.

That's the one, thanks.

maybe JB is still mad at local press for previous probation coverage?

You are right. That's from October.

Ernest Interviews JB?

Needs more cowbell...or Andy Katz and that grin

Promoting the book.

A nice job...articulate, thoughtful and interesting.

But why wouldn't he be accommodating?
Boeheim said it himself...he's there to sell a book.
And this interview may be even more friendly because his publisher, Harper-Collins, is owned by News Corp., parent of Fox Business News.

I do quarrel with the lack of thought put into his wardrobe and the background in SU's studio.
Gray jacket. Navy background.
Hate that color combination as it relates to basketball.

Thanks for posting that, I quite enjoy his self-deprecating style of humor.
