Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 5276146, member: 628"] All of this "woe is us" stuff about NIL and talent was [I]precisely[/I] what was being said about the football program. We'll never be good. Better just accept that 7 wins is as good as we can do. Northeast. Weather. Lather, rinse, repeat. Then we hired a guy who had a clearly defined plan. Brought in a staff purpose-built to execute on that plan. And schmoozed the Money Men (and Women) to fund the plan. I mean, there was no inherent reason why Syracuse was a top-tier college hoops program for 4+ decades. It was because of the work of James Arthur Boeheim. Without JAB we could easily have been Seton Hall. Nearly ALL of this is on Autry. HE has to figure out how to fund NIL. HE has to get the right talent in the program. HE has to build a staff that develops players and implements the system he wants. This is his job. [/QUOTE]
