Syracuse men's basketball head coach Jim Boeheim had some choice words for the Big Ten's performance last year in light of the conference's lackluster NCAA tournament outing.
"At the end of the day, you play for the [NCAA] tournament," Boeheim said during Syracuse's media day on Friday, per ESPN's Myron Medcalf.
"You can say what you want about the Big Ten. They sucked in the tournament. To me, that's what they did. All of their wins were in their league. If you can't play in the [NCAA] tournament, then you're not good."
The Big Ten notably sent nine teams to the NCAA tournament, more than any other conference.
