Hoops, that's water under the bridge now.
There's a new Sheriff in town. Syracuse's refusal to host a homecoming game for Breanna Stewart in 2016 was courtesy of their former head coach
Quintin Hillsman, not the school
. In August 2021, Hillsman resigned from his position as the Syracuse University women's basketball head coach after allegations of misconduct. Any animosity that might have been had for Hillsman was satisfied later that year when UConn destroyed Syracuse in the NCAAT championship game 82-51 to win #11.
Felisha Legette-Jack is the current head coach of
Syracuse University's women's basketball team. She previously served as the head coach at the
University at Buffalo,
Indiana University, and
Hofstra University's women's basketball teams. She was hired to replace Hillsman a week or two after his departure. She comes in with a clean slate, and should not be held accountable for any errors in judgment by Hillsman.
