Bobby Manning and James Szuba wrap their trip to Syracuse's media day and basketball scrimmage. What happened to the days of Jadakiss, the stage and Seth Greenburg? SU couldn't get the nets right for the skills competition, scratched the dunk contest and only a small crowd showed up to watch the team.  Marek Dolezaj was the story of the day. Lauded as part of Syracuse's veteran core and dishing passes as a secondary ball-handler, he could be crucial to the new-look Orange offense.  That stuck out most from the first impression. This is all new, fresh, albeit sloppy. Jalen Carey looked in control, Brycen Goodine annihilated the three-point contest and Buddy Boeheim, Joe Girard dueled at the end of the scrimmage. While Guerrier thrived in the skills competition and from outside. We break down each new aspect of the roster, and where everyone stands after our first glimpse. Plus, the biggest surprises from media day interviews. Could there be a surprise PG starter? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megapho

Syracuse made Andre Jackson the bedrock of what could become the final recruiting core of the Jim Boeheim era. We want him to coach John's son one day, but it's probably not possible.  So UConn's surprise victory set back the Orange not just for 2020-21, it also gives fresh programs a recruiting lineage to carry to ensuing class. Dan Hurley, Mike Hopkins and others began long-term programs in recent years. No matter how long Boeheim coaches, they're behind those teams in establishing what's next.  Whether that's good or bad depends on expectations. Boeheim and company can and will recruit strong classes of undervalued talent. WIthout a Jackson though, it's reasonable to question if there will be one last run at a title in this Boeheim era.  Those are some of the various layers Bobby and James dug into after a week of murmurs about Jackson to UConn concluded with his Wednesday decision. Another few weeks also brought news of California's college athlete payment law (for endorsements) and sanctions for Kansas a

Bobby Manning and James Szuba from TNIAAM's basketball beat break down last week's schedule release. An overtime interruption of the release and Twitter leaks deepen the issues with the ACC Network launch.  Syracuse got loaded up with February challenges after their lighter non-conference stretch. We dove into a small window where the Orange have an outside chance to enter the rankings.  We dipped our foot into the Clemson weekend, and ask if the Duke game to begin February can compare as an event. Who does that Blue Devils squad have for this year anyway?  Then, the question of the week, do we give serious consideration to man-to-man joining the defensive rotation this year? By extension, will they even stick with deep rotations early on?  James remembers the Le Moyne loss, 10 years ago this November, that inspired the full-time switch to zone. Plus, we have a date for media day and the first Orange scrimmage at the Dome.' Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
