Battle coming back might not crack the top ten in Syracuse history unless Cuse wins the whole enchilada but this is excellent news.
1) Boeheim hires Troy Weaver. On the surface this one is hard to believe, since JAB has gone with a lot of Cuse guys on his staff. Yes, he had Wayne Morgan before he had Troy Weaver, and Morgan was a solid assistant coach but he never recruited Carmelo Anthony.
2) Julius Hodge spurns Cuse for NC State. I mean, c'mon. Who wouldn't want to be Orange Julius. Well, fortunately for us, Hodge didn't want to be. Enter Queen Warrick and her son Hakim. What did he do for Syracuse? Only, the single greatest play in Syracuse history.
3) John Wallace. Another four year solid stud. Came to Syracuse when probation #1 hit. What did Wallace do for Syracuse. Only led the team to the national championship game vs the UK NBA team. Cuse is in the House. Oh my God!!!
4) Pearl Washington. This is a two part entry. Part One: Pearl coming to Syracuse put the Orangemen on the national ESPN map. Everyone learned about the Carrier Dome, Jim Boeheim and the Big East Conference. Part Two: Pearl leaves early for the NBA and opens up playing time for Sherman Douglas. What did Sherm do. Left the Dome as the All time leader in NCAA history in Assists despite only having 57 in the year he sat behind the Pearl.
