Jim Boeheim on his son, Syracuse basketball expectations, Darius Bazley

Syracuse, N.Y. -- Jim Boeheim wants to make something clear. His son, Buddy, will be on scholarship this season. And he is not sitting out the year as a redshirt.

"They still speculate about it all the time that it's a possibility. He's not redshirting," Boeheim said. "Right now, there's no plans to redshirt anybody."

Buddy Boeheim will be a freshman in 2018-19, when Syracuse returns every one of its starters from its Sweet 16 team of a season ago. The 6-foot-5 shooting guard has been working out with his new Orange teammates all summer since graduating from Brewster Academy, where he spent his senior high school season.
