Agree wholeheartedly.  The SU basketball program has been built upon a foundation of stability provided by Jim Boeheim over four decades (probably the main reason I've been a fan for that long).  So think, for a minute. . . if that is JB's prime directive, what would be his preferred tactic to give his program, staff, and current and promised players the best chance to survive this turmoil?  Maintain the helm while riding out the storm (a captain doesn't abandon his ship) and don't stick Mike with the worst three years to get his coaching feet under him.  Give Mike a fighting chance to succeed with the players Mike has recruited by staying to provide them the coaching from JB they expected when they signed their letters.

Success in real estate may be location, location, location, but success in SU Basketball is continuity, continuity, continuity.  There's a reason JB's name is on the court.-VBOF

P.S.:  New AD or not, it would be sheer stupidity for the university not to give Mike first shot at succeeding JB.

P.P.S.:  Hope JB challenges the NCAA and gets some of his victories back . . .  Fab Melo wasn't a determining factor in many of them.
