Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 4593144, member: 716"] a) I feel very old that I'm joining in the "let's describe Adrian Autry, a post-probation late-middle-Boeheim-era player, to people who never saw him" game; b) This bolded line is not hyperbole...Autry was up and down as an underclassman but he really was the top dog on a team with Wallace and Moten. He was the straw that stirred the drink. He'd be hands-down the coolest player of the last decade in the current era. Semi-related: c) Agree on the assessment that it's odd that people are talking themselves into the continuity hire being a good decision. It is what it is, but it's a strange limitation for a program that's been struggling to place on itself at such a critical juncture. I wish Autry the best, always liked him very much as a player and was thrilled when he was brought on to replace Rob Murphy. But following Boeheim is a thankless job. [/QUOTE]
