Press Conference

Why? I can tell you what he said, it's obvious. Jim says Jim things. Very predictable.
You are right. We didn’t make shots. They were physical. They are not ready. Joe is getting BETTER at defense. Clemson is a really hard place to play. Jesse did not get to the corner. We can’t play man. The zone is easier to learn. The zone is is hard to learn.

Ok point taken!
 
If you search his name on Twitter you can find come clips of it. But can’t find the whole thing anywhere.
 
I did a great job of coaching. It’s all the players fault. They suck at defense and can’t hit shots. Did I mention I’m a really good coach?
"we're right in these games when the ball tips. We hang really tight for the first few seconds. After that, its just mostly random chance. "
 
They've reversed the tradition of not being able to hear the questions and replaced it with not being able to hear the coach.


Played poorly and got beat bad the last two games and both times JB handled the pressers very well. That will disappoint those who were hoping he’d blow up.
 
Resignation and acceptance by Jim--never seen him so calm about the bad play of his team-I think he realizes that there's nothing he can do to change things, absent wholesale replacement of players.

Throw a little apathy in there as well. Definitely acceptance at this point.

players are fine. its that stupid defense that doesn't and can't work anymore because everyone can shoot and pass now. It's like trying to fight with one hand tied behind your back. it can be a change of pace D but not a base D. bring in any group of players you want, it will be the same.
 
I think his calmness can be attributed to the firestorm he created with the ACC. He has been very even keeled since that memo came out. Someone high up had to have had a conversation with him.
I haven’t heard him speak out of tone once since then.

I don’t even need to watch because he’s been that way all season. He doesn’t have the fire he once did, and that’s completely understandable. But you need that fire to win at a high level in this game. It ain’t there anymore. He got his ring, he coached his sons, and now he just likes being Syracuse Head Coach, Jim Boeheim.

Maybe he can no longer scheme or teach m2m or other Ds because he hasn’t taught it or used anything but zone for decades

It’s all about the players or lack thereof.

When you don’t recruit well, you don’t perform.

But all of it does ultimately fall on one person.
 
Here's one you can hear, although we're back to the reporters being Charlie Brown's Mom. Maybe some clever person can figure out a way to combine the videos to get the questions from that one and the answers from this one.

And now that he handles it well the excuse is that he’s given up, resignation and acceptance lol
 
come out and tear down your own players by name. classy.
when you hear "jesse wasn't physical enuf..." drink !

I could do that, but what's the point? I couldn't make it through a minute of the presser. My fire for this season is dwindling, which really stinks. I'm trying to remain positive and optimistic, but it's so damn hard.

I doubt anybody was hoping for that.

I think it’s more accurate to say “that will relieve some who were fearing he’d blow up.”

Hey, great, he’s gone a couple weeks without saying anything he shouldn’t say! We’re all set now!!
