Message: [QUOTE="SwingDog, post: 3439724, member: 7919"] I don't see Syracuse as a big draw for recruits. Their move to the ACC has clearly not been beneficial to the basketball program (football, I don't know), and the subject of Jim Boeheim's retirement keeps coming up but his most recent comments on it seem to reflect that he has no date in mind. [USER=2217]@HuskyFich[/USER] called Syracuse a "fading program", and that's the perception I have as well. The name "Syracuse" no longer seems to conjure the image of a premier, upper echelon collegiate basketball program. In some ways there are parallel's with UConn's program but the big difference is the Huskies are trending in the right direction and are beginning to generate excitement while Syracuse appears to be middling, perhaps even stuck in mediocrity, waiting for a new coach to bring in fresh energy and vision.
