Jim Boeheim: Accident, Jorge Jimenez's Death 'Will Be With Me for the Rest of My Life’

Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said Wednesday's accident that resulted in the death of pedestrian Jorge Jimenez is "something that will be with me for the rest of my life."

Boeheim was driving on on Interstate 690 in Syracuse, N.Y., after his team's win over Louisville on Wednesday when his vehicle struck and killed a man. The accident's victim reportedly exited his vehicle near Thompson Road in Syracuse around midnight before he was struck by Boeheim's car.

Conditions in Syracuse were "icy" according to Thursday's report, though it's unclear whether the conditions affected Boeheim's involvement in Wednesday's accident.
