”Boeheim has an official coaching record of 1,015-441 over his career -- with 101 wins having been vacated because of NCAA rules violations that resulted in sanctions.”

Boeheim hints at retirement: 'Up to the university'

Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said any decision on him returning for a 48th season "is up to the university" and said, "I gave my retirement speech last week."

Nice that Wake Forest’s buzzer beater today put a dagger into Syracuse!

 

[JoeBatters1]

He coached 47 seasons and won’t even amount to an afterthought outside of Syracuse. I thought it was funny that he took a shot at Paterno when the Bernie Fine stuff hit, but if I remember correctly somebody in Syracuse thought it fitting to put up billboards to honor Paterno when he passed. Let’s see if boeheim merits a billboard.

 

[91Joe95]

You know who doesn't have any vacated wins? Joe Paterno.

 

[PSU Mike]

So he’s not going to leak that information?

 

[Connorpozlee]

He’s so excited about retirement that he’s pissed his pants!

 

[Shepdogg]

Hope he dies tomorrow!

edit - Leaves for good!

 

[NewEra 2014]

I honestly thought he had already retired a couple of years ago. I guess Syracuse basketball hasn't shown up on my radar screen for quite awhile.

 

[Tri-Power65]

Dick.

 

[LionJim]

It’s official: Boeheim will retire.

 

[OhioLion]

I will agree with one thing Jimmy said - that he’s no Joe Paterno.
He’s nowhere close to having the character and integrity of JVP.

Is there anyone, anywhere who will miss him?

Sounds like he may have been let go today. Apparently in his post game presser they asked if he would be back and he said it was up to the school. Hours later he’s ‘retired’ and Syracuse has already named his replacement.

He is out per the NY Times

And he still is no Joe Paterno!

 

[Bkmtnittany1]

What if the ‘Cuse goes to the NIT? Autry the coach?

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

Love love love seeing it ending so poorly up there in Syracuse … Eff that guy

Poetic justice.

The Syracuse BOT finally released Boeheim after the Bernie Fine crimes?

 

[psuro]

I already don’t miss him.

 

[WVilleLion]

Syracuse will never sniff another NC.

 

[BW Lion]

Is Jimmy leaving on his own or is there a “wake of turds” he’s hidden that Syracuse recently discovered?

Jim Boeheim's 10 greatest moments in 47 seasons at Syracuse

One national title, 47 seasons and Jim Boeheim's 10 greatest moments at Syracuse

One title, nearly five decades and 1,015 victories. Jim Boeheim did it all at Syracuse, where he was known for that 2-3 zone and, later in his career, surprising March Madness runs.

This has to be #1:

 

[Bison13]

Jason La Canfora is a Syracuse grad and does a radio show in Baltimore. He ripped Jim yesterday after the announcement, said he was an awful person, was a dick to students and paid to get carmelo

 

[cac@PSU]

Boehiem is another coavch who stayed too long at his school. He was pushed out the door!

While I was an AD I had a basketball coach that played for JB in his early years. He had nothing good to say about him. This was circa 1992. However ironically, he did employ "the zone" and we had some pretty good years.

 

[Hardslider33]

He hinted about retirement for years, even had a successor in place. 3 months ago he stated he wanted to coach all these young kids on the roster. The university got tired of him waiting to go on his own. Finally they just put him out of his misery and canned him. 7 years to late honestly

 

[Hugh Laurie]

And somewhere in heaven, JVP is smiling.

In related news, St Johns just fired Mike Andersen after 4 years on the job and it's being reported they're looking to fill the position with Rick Petino. If they were to land him, I think he'll have them ranked in the pre season top 20 next year.

 

[RochLion]

Boeheim coming up on interview on CNN for anyone that cares.
