Boeheim Goes for #800
Monday November 9, 2009
With his first victory of the 2009-10 season, Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim will reach the 800-win plateau. He'll be just the eighth coach in men's basketball history to reach number 800. Among active coaches, only Duke's Mike Krzyzewski and Connecticut's Jim Calhoun have more W's -- but unlike Coach K and Calhoun, every one of Boeheim's wins has come with the Orange.
The Orange open their season at home against the University of Albany on Monday, November 9th in the first game of the 2k Sports Coaches vs. Cancer Classic. Ordinarily, we'd pencil in a W when Syracuse faces a team from the America East... but don't forget, Boeheim and company lost an exhibition game to Division II LeMoyne last week. An uncharacteristically slow start shouldn't surprise anyone.
