In the last years of the Boeheim era, I think our downfall really took a hit for us to access MSG. Additionally, MSG games from non Big East conference (think SEC and Big 10) have been able to leverage large local alumni of their own and also to convince a lot of travel from those fans. St John’s also is using the building more with Pitino as well. This upcoming season, I’m actually kind of surprised and it’s mainly due to having Kiyan on the team. He has a LARGE following and I would think the main area of that is NYC. Now I think for Syracuse between Las Vegas and Tennessee, as well as using all the rest of the games to hopefully build confidence and run up the score for our NET. I actually think it may be a good thing to skip NYC this season. I honestly don’t love Barclays, we never play well there (kind of checks out when we started playing there, the program decline began). Ideally this season the program regains its pulse and returns to the NCAA tournament. I think it will make a ton of sense for us to return to MSG next season for perhaps multiple games in the non conference. It’s been really an awful period to witness as a Syracuse basketball fan since leaving the Big East. Yeah we have some good moments, but we’ve been a shell of what we were. When we return though and we will whether it’s this season, the next coach, or the coach after, it will be so sweet and we’re going to be so insufferable lol.
