I know that even if Autry and the team fall on their proverbial faces and Gerry takes Siena to the NCAA tournament, he still won’t be our head coach. No matter how successful Gerry is, he probably won’t be considered by us for 5 - 10 years.
But damn, I wish we had chosen Gerry instead of Adrian.
I will always believe in my heart of hearts, that is who Jim saw as his successor.
And I hope all the best for him.
In many ways, he was the heart of the team- first as a player with the NCAA championship and that magical Big East run. He never stopped working and he never gave up.
Even as an assistant coach, I felt he truly bled for the team and was highly respected by the players.
So I will continue to watch and cheer Siena on.

As I will continue to watch and cheer SU and Red on.

By the way, I don’t think the SU basketball team is as bad as some people say.
They lost in overtime to the number 3 team in the country and was in the Kansas game up till the final minutes. Nothing to be ashamed of.
As to the Iowa State game, they had no chance playing a top 15 team  with literally not a day off. Not to mention a pissed off team who took out their understandable frustration out on us.
And all without Donnie Freeman. I will wait to see how they do in early conference play before I make any determinations.
