Every Sunday, Inside the Loud House will release the Top 50 Players they believe are the best in Syracuse Basketball History. This week we continue the countdown with #45.

Our bottom five of our Top-50 players in Syracuse basketball history was released last week. It was met with a lot of controversy from the fans, and we expected that. If you missed last week’s edition of this list, you can check it out here:

This list wasn’t made to offend, it was made to create a conversation and to reflect. This next five has a mix of older players and modern players.

When people ask me what was the hardest part about putting this list together, my answer is simple. It was the constant struggle of making sure both eras were represented.

Walking into this we knew that if we put too many modern players that we saw with our own eyes we’d get bashed by the Generation X population. While on the flip side, if you don’t get the modern players in there, no one will really know the players from this millennial generation.

Anyways, without further ado let’s look at the next player in countdown starting with #45.
