The NCAA sanctions brought a tight-knit community and fan base even close together. We are all ready to move past this and enjoy the last three years of Boeheim’s hall of fame career- and then the Mike Hopkins era to follow.
Here’s to hoping for a bounce back in 2016. I’d still rather be a Syracuse fan than any other team. SU consistently wins. I look forward to more of that tournament winning in the future.
You won’t have to listen to commentators who spend the entire season asking why Syracuse doesn’t switch to man-to-man defense rave about how stifling Boeheim’s 2-3 zone is.
Syracuse is only sure to lose one player from the 2014-15 team, but it’s a big one. All-ACC First Team selection Rakeem Christmas is taking his team-high 17.5 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game to the NBA.
