Last week’s news about Darius Bazley skipping college to head right into the G League brought back one of the familiar refrains about Syracuse Orange basketball- the lack of success of former players in the NBA.
this part i don't get: if you're concerned enough with your professional future to do a year in the g-league, why did you ever commit to play zone for a year at a school with a poor track record of developing pros? https://t.co/7seCBsv0Fn

We’ve heard plenty of similar comments to this one so I decided to do a bit of digging to see if this was just another #lazynarrative around the Syracuse program.
