Syracuse basketball has to focus on a handful of areas to ensure an invitation to March Madness.

The 2020-21 season is, hopefully, about to begin this coming week for Syracuse basketball and many other teams. This will prove a stanza unlike any other, because of the novel coronavirus pandemic, and all of us ‘Cuse fans out there are eyeing our boys’ proposed term opener this Friday on the Hill versus Bryant.
