The job opened up only four …

Appreciating the career of Roy Williams

Thursday legendary coach Roy Williams retired. It is hard to have imagine that a coach that won over 900 games, with 3 National Titles, and went to 9 Final Fours would be under-appreciated, but I think he was. When you coach at places like Kansas and UNC you’re expected to win big, but that doesn’t …

After rough 2020-2021 season, ACC basketball will be back.

The NCAA tournament went as most of followers of the ACC expected – with a couple of Sweet 16 teams, and then out of the NCAA tournament. If an ACC team was going to go further, only FSU was probably capable of that, but the Noles peaked in mid-January. All of the issues we saw …

Syracuse twitter closes book on Sweet 16 season.

Cuse’s defense actually did pretty admirably against a top 5 offense.
