I’m old enough to remember the entire 47 years of Coach Boeheim’s coaching career, including his first win over Harvard in 1976. Life won’t be the same without him. Thanks for the memories Coach. In the past 47 years, many of us have changed from young to old. Remembrance: A mighty word.
Amen!!! Probably would have one more Chip if his point guard was as cocafuled like Novas when they beat Georgetown!! I would shoot 100 percent from the line too if the hoop looked as big as Kentucky Lake!!😜
Yes, we were fortunate to have him as long as we did. But it’s always best to quit when you leave your audience wanting more. For the last 10 years, many were grumbling that it was time for Coach Boeheim to say goodbye. Still, it was incredibly emotional for many of us when he retired.
@@brooktroutangler5917 Nice ! My friend has been a S.T. holder in the 315 for over 30 years!! I have seen alot of Great Games cheering with you there!!🤗👍👊🧡🍊🏀
Amen to that. My favorite memory is when Coach Boeheim and the 2003 SU Men’s Basketball team finally won the NCAA National Championship. I actually cried tears of joy.
I am Grateful that I grew up in Syracuse with Jim Boeheim as the Syracuse basketball coach... Thank you for ALL of the great years Jim, we appreciate them!
Syracuse is my hometown, and with all the places I've lived throughout the country, I've been a loyal fan of Cuse 🏀🍊🏀🍊🏀. Because if you're from Syracuse, it's a moral imperative to be a fan of Coach Boeheim and the teams. Experiencing a game livevin the Dome especially against the Hoyas is a memory I'll never forget. It was Carmelo Anthony Day! Let's not forget the last Big East Tournament at MSG where it was our house 🍊🏀🍊🏀🍊 every year. Thank you Coach! Love from San Diego as I'll always support my Cuse boys!
@@victorkreitner754SU and UConn have both been to six Final Fours. The difference has been that UConn has had an insane rate of conversion into national titles. They’re 10-1 all time in Final Four games, whereas SU is 4-6, counting the 3rd place game in ‘75. And we beat them in the 6 OT game. We’ll have that over them FOREVER!
Syracuse Basketball's identity WAS Jim Boeheim. I spent the first 34 years of my life in Central NY. My memories of SU started in 1990 as a 6 yr old. My Grandmother was a diehard SU fan. I'm now 39, my grandma is gone now, and Jim is retired. Long Live the 2-3 Zone. You'll never see it used to it's full potential the way Boeheim used it again in your lifetime. Damn, time moves too fast sometimes...
Grew up through it all in the greatest era, and league, the Big East from the early 80s to mid 90s. Don’t care when anybody says. Will never be anything like it. Came so close to having several more championships, but as is said, you can’t always have it all. One is still better than none. Thanks for it all coach, and for sticking around.
I have been a Boeheim critic and a fan, alternately, for his entire career. He was an assistant coach when I attended Syracuse from '69 to '73. He was an instructor in a physical education class I took for a single academic credit in 1972, when Syracuse Basketball was played on the court above the dirt floor in Manley Field House. That said, please remember, it is not easy to attract the best recruits to go to school in Syracuse, where 151" of snow fell in the Winter of my freshman year. And , remember, how self effacing Coach Boeheim was during his meeting on the sidelines with the legendary Coach Roy Williams of Kansas and North Carolina after the Orangemen defeated Kansas for the 2003 NCAA National Basketball Championship. At that moment, Coach Boeheim cared more about consoling Coach Williams than he cared about his own victory. That is the very definition of an Orangeman. And Boeheim was, and is., an Orangeman, in every way.
We really thoroughly enjoyed this ceremony, celebration, all your fun, tears, and everything ❤ Thank you very muchfor posting on you tube so we can all see, and be part of this great city, twam, teamwork...much love, respect 🙏 god bless 🏆 🥇
Got hooked on Cuse basketball when I watched my first Cuse /Georgetown game in 1983 at the age of 12. I am proud to bleed Orange, and celebrate the MANY awesome Cuse moments that happened under Coach Boeheim's leadership. There will never be another career like his! Thank you Coach for all your love, hard work and dedication to Syracuse basketball.
Thank Jimmy for your ancient zone defense. And your 1 countem 1 national championship. The talent that went through that college cuse should have 4 championships. Threw his players under the bus every chance he could.....usually after a loss.
Better ceremony than Mike's at Duke, who ripped his team which was very embarrassing. Coach B teased Coach Autry about the defense tho he should have said nothing. My only ugh moment but otherwise great ceremony.
Love that Tirico made sure to say that it was 1,116 wins! (The real number)
ugh

Say what you will about Coach Boeheim - but we as a basketball town were fortunate to have him for as long as we did.
I say what an amazing run we had with JB......an amazing privilege in the 315.

Got the opportunity to meet Coach Boeheim around a month ago, very nice man indeed...

One of the greatest tributes I’ve ever watched.
It is good to see the Coach's self. I've heard he is a good man and his speech reveals that man. Please share that part of you coach wherever you are.
Wow, what a special ceremony. THANK YOU COACH! 🍊
A legacy of Boeheim will never be matched by anyone and anybody in college basketball history!
One NCAA Championship. Should of had more. UCONN has 5 with 3 different coaches. Syracuse should of stayed in the Big East.
@@victorkreitner754 Football and GREED ruined the Big East and is continuing to ruin college sports. Pretty soon there will be only 2 conferences.

Thank you, Coach Boeheim, for all the great memories. LETS GO ORANGE!!!!!! You were the Head Coach of SU Men’s Basketball for most of my lifetime.
Thank you for everything you and your family have done for our community. You are No 1 in our hearts. Love you Coach!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great ceremony to honor Coach. Go Orange!

brought a tear to my eye...thanks for everything, coach!
Watched a lot of Orangemen basketball through the years Congrats Coach.
I love you Jimmy ❤❤❤
We'll miss you coach.. meet ya at Teugega C.C. if you're in the area

Now he and his wife provide cookies to the local repair shop in Mandana.
Classic! You edited out us booing Horrible Hochul, but you kept in the part where Mike referenced the booing! #EPICFAIL
Why would you boo the Syracuse Grad NY Governor. Wh at a dope.
No disrespect to jb at all he had so much talent on his teams he should have had more national championships
Strong Like 👍

Wow, did I see Dave Bing sitting there?
You did. He was there… as were 50 former players who lined the hall for his entrance into the stadium.
@@geraldinegates2299 Melo was there (prolly)
No…Melo…. But a video message from him, for coach, on the Jumbotron. Video tributes were played during timeouts and halftime on the Jumbotron.
I recognized Sherman Douglas, Billy Owens, Brandon Triche, Sean Kerins, and Marty Headd.
@@dmmamcI also caught a glimpse of 64 year old Danny Schayes too. Danny has a good size stomach. He looks like he’s getting enough to eat.
Ceremony was great except for having to listen to governor botox
Don’t get political please. It was a ceremony to honor Coach Boeheim. Let’s leave partisan politics out of it. Thank you.
