Boheim talks about those days and the coming battles with powerhouses North Carolina and Duke, now that Syracuse has joined the Atlantic Coast Conference.From his association with Syracuse greats Dave Bing (a college teammate), Pearl Washington and Derrick Coleman, to the Olympics—where he coached players such as LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant—Boeheim has learned many lessons that have helped his team and continue to encourage him now as he nears seventy.
