What Needs to Change From Bryant to Illinois?
Syracuse Basketball is in the midst of an unfamiliar stretch. After SU’s 73-72 loss to Bryant, the Orange could drop their third consecutive non-conference game for just the second time under the tutelage of Jim Boeheim.

Fizz Instant Reaction: Bryant 73, Syracuse 72
When Syracuse fans look back on the Bryant game, a 73-72 loss in the Dome, in three months, they might remember it at the “slap game,” or the “Mintz Fight.” All that aside, it’s SU’s second mid-major loss in three weeks. Joe Girard was a ghost Saturday, Justin Taylor and Chris Bell stepped up to…

Don’t Forget Frank Anselem
Syracuse has the look of a nice sturdy rotation to start this upcoming season. Freshman Kadary Richmond and sophomore Quincy Guerrier will have to come off the bench, but they’re too good to stay there for long. It’s been a while since the Orange had that kind of player: maybe since Tyler Lydon came off…

Syracuse Basketball is Without a Schedule
