Don't know what the '77 in your post refers to.

Maybe your birth year?  If so, you might not be a native Syracusan but started school around 18 so your freshman year would likely have been the 95-96 season and most everyone here knows what happened THAT season.

But for any readers who don't, here's Wikipedia to the rescue with the recap of the NCAA tournament championship game:

So if that was your freshman year and like probably half the campus who had enough disposable income, you might have been sitting in the student section at the Meadowlands, cheering for the improbable but plausible upset of Kentucky.

And be so bummed when it didn't happen that you either gave up on the team or just lurked here for the longest time.

Did you give JB his props in 2003 or did you just figure that was all Melo's doing?

If you graduated in '77 though, then you started college in '73 when JB was still an assistant coach to Roy Danforth.

In which case, I can't even begin to guess what's on your mind.

Carry on.
