OT: Cuse

[How Sway?!]

Syracuse will have a new head coach in 2025-26. Hardly unusual to see a team struggle after their long time hall of fame coach retires. Sometimes the new guy is successful at first but that often fails once he is on his own without holdover players. As I said on another thread if everyone Coached as well as Boehiem There wouldn’t be a hall of fame.

You would be up to something here if it weren't for the fact that a big reason they suck so bad is because Boehiem ran the program to the ground just so his kid could break a scoring record.

I went to a game in Ollies final year at Gampel (UCF) and was shocked at the attendance. Seats in the upper level behind the benches were half full and those are the true believers. The building was dead. But to show how shellshocked the fan base was resulting in the drop off in season ticket holders in Hurleys second season we played and lost to St Joes at Gampel. Attendance was 4,081. We had a big comeback but fell short. The few there were into it but I was thinking we have become invisible on the National stage. Bouknight arrived the next season and we were on our way back.

yeah Bouk just put UConn on those sturdy shoulders

The Syracuse thread on this is good reading. I really hope they run Red back.

Crowd size……

They don’t want us to believe our eyes when we watch the actual game, and now they don’t want us to believe our eyes when we watch the different camera angles showing the crowd size! I guess maybe that “announced” crowd included about 7,000 ONE dollar tickets sold in the last 24 hours.
