Postgame Thoughts… Colgate

[Scooch]

This has to end. The program is dead. Last season. Gotta move on.

 

[MikeSU02]

Notice Colgate didn't even have a huge celebration. They expected to win.

Langel had them ready.

Jim Boeheim should never coach another game at Syracuse again. You’re not allowed to get blown out my Colgate twice in a row. Today was absolutely disgusting in a million ways.

Let GMac or whoever coach the next 30 games then decide from there. The man is my childhood hero but JFC this is pathetic.

Boeheim is gonna leave this program in worse shape than he received it. And that is the problem. He will have one ship to show for it…but so does Kevin Ollie haha.

It’s time for him to go and go away.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Colgate coach getting interviewed postgame in the dome after winning for the second straight year.

RIP

 

[Madbiker]

What an embarrassment. This is proof that we just don't get near the caliber of player we used to get. Used to beat Colgate by 30 now lose by 15. It's time for JB to go. Past time.

 

[tbonezone]

the team is young. they'll get better. coach is old. he won't.

 

[MikeSU02]

Its not really worth getting upset about. The Admin and the AD's office have to admit that both major mens sports need complete overhauls. How many more times are we going to watch both get embarrassed within days of each other?

Honestly? You've prob seen my posts - I'm clearly one of the harder posters on JB. But it's my head vs heart. In my head, I see it. In my heart, I get myself pumped up for the games. Still hurts. Even though it's expected.

Meh I no longer care

Boeheim is now like JoePa, only worse.

A scandal isn't likely to do him in. Neither, apparently, is terrible basketball.

These early season games were always against 'opponents', designed to whet the appetite of CNY fans for what was to come. Blowouts, almost inevitably.

Now, they're often losses that never would have happened before.

It's pointless to continue to beat the drum. Boeheim's a legend who has long since passed his expiration date. Only his pull keeps him in that position.

Time to look forward to--what? The football portal? Check with me, maybe, after BC.

Ay-yai-yai!

Positives: Mintz and Benny had good games. We won the 2nd half

Negative: It's Colgate!!!

 

[FrancoPizza]

I'm legitimately sad.

It has been years of mediocre to bad basketball that some people have been in denial on. But coming off last year to this, it cannot be denied anymore.

I was prepared to bad, but this is downright awful.

I'm legitimately sad and it's awful to watch.

Some will still be in denial

The administration has to admit the current athletic department is a complete train wreck. If they don’t fire JB, then Wildhack needs the axe. Has to be a fall guy for this mess.

THE PLAN BABY NEVER QUESTION THE PLAN

I love JAB, I really appreciate everything he's done for the program. That said, if he's the coach next year I'm not watching again until there's a new coach.

For real though, Benny finally had a good game. Loss is bad but like… duh, Benny having a good game is rarer is than a bad Syracuse loss at this point. Hopefully he can build on this.

What does JB have left to prove at this point? HOF Coach, National Champion, made Syracuse a national brand in MBB, got to coach his two sons on the same team?

Sometimes it’s time to take away the keys, even when the driver thinks they can still do it…

Not sure we’re trending to say odds are we’d win the next matchup

In perspective you have Girard a nice person has been a starter playing 30 + minutes a game for 4 years. He would have been at the end of the bench the 4 years that DC, and Stevie were here.
That shows how bad this program has become.

 

[Ragman2000]

Can anyone explain why Girard was on the bench in the last 5 minutes when he's our only proven shooter? Bizarre. He has to be hurt or something, What

The sparsely attended Dome seems to agree with you. Fans have given up.

 

[Dinkyspond]

Jesse got outmuscled by a Patriot League team. WTH is going to happen in the ACC?

 

[Stevenson]

Same. I am 68. Football and basketball, so sad...

I’m 56….both teams are toast. Cue Springsteen’s Glory Days. It’s over and it never coming back.

THE PLAN BABY NEVER QUESTION THE PLAN

There was an episode of The West Wing where Josh Lyman steps in to do a press briefing because CJ can't. He screws it up, including making up the president's "secret plan to flight inflation".

As soon as "the plan" was haphazardly announced without details, I knew what that meant.
