The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball program is well into offseason at this point, but on Wednesday Jim Boeheim appeared on Eric Devendorf’s show on Cuse Sports Talk to lightheartedly discuss a medley of topics, including the inexact science of recruiting rankings, name, image and likeness (NIL), the transfer portal and how Syracuse is still searching for a backup center, among other subjects.
Much ink has been spilled this offseason over NIL in the college basketball world as players like Oscar Twishbe can expect to make upwards of $2 million at Kentucky this upcoming season and North Carolina’s Armando Bacot is set to appear in Netflix’s series the Outer Banks.
