Saw that Jim Boeheim was hanging up his whistle after a long career at Syracuse. All of us old-timers can remember the thrill of the Golden Hurricane beating the Orange in the 1981 NIT final, and this was when the NIT was a "Big Deal" with 32 qualifying teams. TU won a lot of very close games on the way to the final, and then overcame an extremely biased Digger Phelps who was doing the game for television. How sweet it was, and TU was on it's way to 2 solid decades of great basketball.
