Can't wait till Isaiah Jackson comes here.

All this nonsense about Boeheim may have [I]some [/I]truth to it: He is older, and maybe not as active in recruiting as he used to be, and we haven't been pulling in any 5 stars lately ...

[I]However[/I], Jim is [I]the only [/I]reason why this program is what it is, and why it was taken to its highest of highs, why the team can make the NCAA tournament even in down years, why Syracuse has one of the best NBA draft histories in college basketball ...outside of Kentucky, Duke, Kansas ... why Syracuse started recruiting 5-star players on a regular basis in the 2000s, and why this team will probably be good again this year.

You wanna know success?  How about a coach who consistently takes lesser recruited players and puts them into position to taste the NBA on a regular basis, and gets them to the big tourney almost every year?  Forget Duke, Kentucky, and Kansas.  They do it with players NBA-ready coming out of high school.  Jim has always taken the harder road and gotten it done.  We might not win a championship this year, but Syracuse will remain on the map in 2019-2020 because of Jim Boeheim.
