Rankings aren't easy, but in my regard for these players, I tend to think I give roughly equal weight to 1) production (stats), 2) winning, 3) longevity, and 4) talent. Stuff like post-season success and subjective things like likability might bump a guy up a little, as will my interpretation of his place in SU history (Pearl ----> more great recruits and winning; Wallace bridging the probation talent gap). I've never applied those criteria to a set of rankings before, but I'll try to type this out while I eat lunch.

1. Wallace
2. Coleman
3. Anthony
4. Douglas
5. Warrick
6. Pearl
7. Owens
8. Seikaly
9. Moten
10. Bouie
11. Addison

As I expected, Pearl's difficult to quantify (and that ranking includes a little bonus for being Pearl). But I think that's a solid Boeheim ten-plus-one ranking list. As always, this kind of ranking involves different criteria for different people (many wouldn't weight longevity equally with winning or talent, the second of which is subjective anyway), but this seems like a pretty representative snapshot of the best of the Boeheim era.
