    Boeheim is an NCAA Tournament Wizard

    He always takes a shitty team that everybody says shouldn't have made the tourney, and takes them on a tourney run. Dude has some kind of mental edge.

    The guy is one of the all time greats. Doesnt matter if recruiting is down he still gets the most out of what he has.

    Let's not get carried away. Boehiem was the first 2 seed to lose a tournament game in NCAA basketball history.

    TMS, Cuse took heavy recruiting hits over aligations in the program just like UNC the last 3 years. They survive because both coaches arent recruiting 1 and done.

    They actually developed talent and still win over teams that recruit top 10 picks every year. Same with Jay at Villy.

    My Huskies got his protege Mike Hopkins, he's already completely turned the program around in his first year here. We are building our own version of Cuse. And yeah, Boeheim is a great coach, one of the best in the tourney.

    I would not be surprised if Cuse upset another team and made it to the sweet 16.

    Has to help his teams to get out of conference. These teams have not played against his zone defense.

    A zone will do that. Lazy coaching. They dont seem to run great offense either.

    If MichSt loses this game...it's very bad. Izzo can't lose this game w/ the roster he has.

    Izzo has been getting owned for most this season. MSU is easily one of the three most talented teams in the nation, yet MSU got a 3 seed and couldn't win their conference tourney. Izzo is at his best when he doesn't have a lot to work with.

    Not every year, but he does it with regularity and better than anybody else with similar regular season records in the modern era.
