Legendary basketball coach Jim Boeheim’s long career at Syracuse comes to an end.
Basketball Hall of Famer Jim Boeheim’s 47-year tenure as coach at Syracuse came to an awkward end on Wednesday, with the university saying Orange assistant Adrian Autry has been promoted to the job.in the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament, after which Boeheim hinted at retirement but said it would ultimately be the university’s decision.
The 78-year-old Boeheim’s record in his 47 seasons, officially, was 1,015-441. That reflects 101 wins taken away by the NCAA for violations between the 2004-07 and 2010-12 seasons. It was a confusing final news conference, with Boeheim hinting at retirement and hinting that he’d want to return.

He was born in the central New York town of Lyons, not far from Syracuse. He enrolled at the school in 1962 as a walk-on, eventually becoming a captain of the then-Orangemen along with Dave Bing.
The Orange were 17-15 this season and will miss the NCAA Tournament for a second consecutive season.

He had been expected to be the next coach for some time; the question was always when.
