Paulie Scibilia is, apparently, the 'boss' of the show, as well as the chief engineer and a co-host. I don't know if he's the station manager but his position above the other people on the show in the station hierarchy has been mentioned a few times. He's there at the Boeheim show as producer but doesn't get on the mike. He drives to all the games, (he doesn't fly), and sets everything up but isn't on mike for that, either. He's been co-hosting Orange Nation with Steve Infanti, Channel 9's sports director, for about 3 years now. He lets Steve do most of the interviewing and just expounds on things between then and on Twitch during the breaks, often vociferously.
He doesn't 'boss' the others on the air, except comically. He's a contrarian on most issues, which isn't a bad thing, (the majority view needs to acknowledge other points of view could have some validity), but he is a JB loyalist. He owns a pit bull he sometimes brings to the show and he serves and JB's pit bull in discussions. sometimes contradicting himself to do so. His position is that we haven't had 9 bad years by our previous standard since we went a Final Four and two Sweet 16s in that time: it's just been a couple of bad years. Yet he said that our record before the last 9 years was "crazy and insane that we did that, it's so difficult." Which means the last 9 years haven't been as good. He's finally admitted after the Georgia Tech game that "something is wrong and they gotta fix it", but that doesn't include getting a new coach.
Today he got into it with a fan who suggested he come out to some sports bars and see what the people are thinking. Paulie insisted, at length that he doesn't need anybody else's opinions he has his own, that what they say in bars and on the internet doesn't matter. He was quite the curmudgeon.
