College basketball is back.
My beloved Orange hoops team started things off in solid, albeit somewhat shaky, fashion. The ‘Cuse’s 84-54 exhibition throttling of Southern New Hampshire on Wednesday night from the Carrier Dome is an initial tell-tale sign of what we might anticipate from SU in the 2017-18 campaign.
There are four freshmen and six new guys overall on the current Syracuse roster. Tons of potential and talent, but also a bevy of inexperience and youth.
I’m eager to see how head coach Jim Boeheim’s bunch performs this term. Expectations are muted.
