Jim Boeheim

No northern bias in these comments, even though Greensboro is a thug town.

And then there’s Syracuse Coach Jim Boeheim. “Where would you want to go to a tournament for five days?” he asked in an appearance before the Monday Morning Quarterback Club in Birmingham. “Let's see: Greensboro, North Carolina, or New York City? Jeez. Let me think about that one and get back to you.”

Well, he at least gets one thing right... sort of.

“If the conference commissioners were the founding fathers of this country, we would have Guatemala, Uruguay and Argentina in the United States,” he said. “The audience knows why we are doing this. There are two reasons: Money and football."

If the ACC conference commissioners are the Founding Fathers, does that make Syracuse Guatemala in his analogy? :blink:

Jim Boeheim says ‘money, football’ are behind conference shifts and don’t ask whether he likes Greensboro better than NYC
