Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5653949, member: 173"] Agree. The fact that both processes to replace coaches were screwed up train wrecks doesn’t change the fact changes needed to be made. JB hit the ceiling in 2021, sneaking into the tourney was as good as it was going to be - and college sports changed so much since 2021 that it’s unlikely he’d have even gotten close to that. I slightly disagree in that I think the only positive if JB was allowed to completely run the program off a cliff over the last three years is he would have burned through more of his political capital in the process. We could have avoided the internal pressure to “keep it within the family” and had a legitimate national search. We’d still be trying to recruit kids now who think Syracuse is a program that used to be good and there would be a massive rebuilding process ahead, so we’d be in about the same spot as we are now.
