Jim Boeheim Passes Rupp For 4th On All-Time Win List



  Milestones are the moments that trademark the career of any individual. Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim has met his fair share of milestones and on Monday night he did it again.
  With Syracuse's 60-53 victory over Cincinatti, it gave Boeheim his 877th career win passing Adolph Rupp for fourth all time in NCAA history. The win did not come easy though. The Orange started the game giving up multiple threes to the Bearcats.
  Then it all began to click. CJ Fair stole a pass and sparked a 9-0 run to tie the game at 15. Later in the game Scoop Jardine hit a couple of clutch shots to seal the deal for the Orange.
  Boeheim is now just 2 wins short of third place, 879 wins, held by Dean Smith. The Orange look to continue to improve the win total Saturday against West Virginia.
