Team has great potential. It is nice to see big men with quick athletic moves to the basket, especially Mr. Jackson.  Mr. Flynn appears to be the real deal, but one night is deceiving. The turnovers should come down with experience or we will be in big trouble. We need a better plan against the press and Boeheim needs to keep playing more players off of the bench like he did in the first half. We have 8 players who could be starters and we only played the starting 5 for most of the second half. Maybe Jim was teaching them a lesson in endurance.

RELAX PEOPLE, FORGET THIS DYNASTY THING ALSO. THIS TEAM HAS STRUGGLED AT HOME AGAINST GARBAGE TEAMS. I KNOW THEY ARE YOUNG, BUT UNTIL THEY PROVE THEY CAN BEAT A QUALITY TEAM ON THE ROAD....TAKE A STEP BACK AND DONT GET TO EXCITED, THIS TEAM PLAYS NO DEFENSE, AND GETS STAGNET ON OFFENSE AT TIMES. THEY LOOK LIKE A AVERAGE TEAM. SO DONT GET TO EXCITED, YOU ONLY BEAT ST. WHOS, AND ST. WHATS....LEMOYNE, AND OCC, AND EVEN HENNIGERS VARSITY....WHEN YOU WIN AGAINST QUALITY TEAMS, THEN WE CAN BE HAPPY, BUT THIS TEAM ISNT IMPRESSIVE AT ALL.....

Whoa Jake, you obviously know nothing about college basketball.  They just played two good teams, both NCAA tournament teams this year.  You'll be on the bandwagon when they win 25 games this year.

cusehoops11 is correct, jake is out of touch. These guys have talent and will be very exciting to watch this year. Flynn is the real point guard that we have needed for about the last 6 years and hopefully Jim B keeps J Wright on the bench, he just can't do it. Green and the other near 7 footers all look good and athletic with a good sense for the game unlike some in the past, roberts and watkins to name of few. The team may lose some tough games but I think they will be in most of them and will only get better.
Go 'cuse

after watching bohheim's poor choice of words and when he decided to use them is
about more than language.  Phil Martelli was the brunt of his temper.  Phil put his hand out to congratulate the wining coach Jim was hell bent to get to Paul Harris to  scream . while shaking hands Jim didn,t even look at Coach Martelli.  How embarassing that must have been for him..He not only made a fool of himself but     also of the visistin coach but most all Paul Harris who thougt Jim was coming  to shake his hand.  if he is like that to opossing coaches and his own team
just think about the referees.
