Syracuse Basketball: Too much depth, ironically, seemed to sting Orange

Before the 2019-20 campaign began in earnest for Syracuse basketball, a lot of conversation centered around the Orange’s significant depth. The ‘Cuse possessed the full allotment of 13 scholarship players, and that got me and many other Syracuse fanatics excited.

Well, that completely stocked line-up is now reportedly paving way to a bunch of defections, and what the Orange’s catalog will look like in the fall remains unclear.

Heading into 2019-20, the ‘Cuse boasted five guards. For much of the recently concluded term, starters Joe Girard III, a freshman, and Buddy Boeheim, a sophomore, received the bulk of the minutes.
