The Syracuse basketball team enters the 2019-20 term with a ton of intrigue, as well as a bunch of question marks.
Expectations are tempered after the Orange lost four of five starters from a year ago. The roster is deep but young, and many of the sport’s pundits don’t view the ‘Cuse as either a top-25 crew nor a group that will reach the NCAA Tournament.
All of this is fodder and speculation, of course. But as Syracuse prepared on Wednesday to conduct its first official preseason practice, it seems appropriate to put forth a few thoughts on what to watch out for in 2019-20.
