Jim Boeheim Day

Haven’t been on campus for a basketball game essentially since I was a student (8 years ago). Happy I made the trip though. I cried and was a mess all day. My wife being there (not an alum) said she finally understood it all. Truly great presentation and I’m a little bummed it wasn’t in excess of 30k. Thanks for everything Jimmy, I can only imagine how different my life would be without Syracuse and this program.

I think the fact that they put his name in the “ring” upon opening the reno’d dome made it a necessity to do it asap. I do think that was strange. But, not too soon nonetheless.

when i first started flying in the 70's it was typically jacket and tie. nowadays it's pajamas and pamper pets. not sure why anyone would want to watch TV when you have a rare spectacular view of the earth out the window. yes times have changed.

How close to the ground do your planes fly?

Can’t begin to tell yas how amazing, emotional and beautiful this experience was.

Was lucky enough to be with my good friend right in among all the old players and Cuse greats and between that, the ceremony, the amazing video it was heart stoppinginly beautiful and touching leaving me verklempt more than once as I felt I was essentially re-living my youth and adulthood with (luv him or not luv him), JB always being a part of it.

What a SPECTACULAR day. Got dozens of pics of it all from right in the mix that if I can figure out how to link them here I will. Just an amazing deserved day for JB and that beautiful gal and person by his side Juli.

Would love to see those pics.

I’m not so sure he’ll transfer. I hope all the sophomores stay.

I'm worried.

The celebration dinner was really well done, Mike Tirico did a great job, and JB's remarks were really moving. Great work by the University today!

Bell will transfer, no need to be singled out like that, they were all terrible, didn't need to make a spectacle and example of one guy

He’s the worst defender in the history of the sport. He laughed about it. It’s all good. Think about it. He’s 163,500 out of…..that number

It would also be helpful for him to run back hard on defense JUST ONCE in his time here.

I feel like I should know who it is, but who was on the bench next to McNamara in the grayish jacket? I couldn't place him.

Keita is between Griff and Rautins.

Sutherland has his face blocked by the guy in the front with the orange hat.

Thanks all, made the suggested updates. OX’s bigger picture helps too.

Looks like Tony Scott between Battle and D. Coleman ?

Or maybe honoring his incredible career was just a natural course of events. I don't get why this is so difficult for some to grasp.

Probably missed the chase down block a couple of games ago. I thought he was locked in early in the first half.
