When it comes to Syracuse Orange men’s basketball head coach Jim Boeheim, there is no artifice. Boeheim isn’t afraid to tell you what he actually thinks.
Such was the case again on Saturday. Following Syracuse’s loss to Georgetown, Boeheim suggested that the Hoyas are a better team without its former starting point guard, James Akinjo.
“They got rid of a guy that wouldn’t pass the ball to anybody and just shot it every time and that’s why they’re good now,” Boeheim said post-game.
Akinjo is one of four players who have left the Georgetown basketball team in the month of December.
