Inside the Loud House looks back at the 2016-2017 Season and how each Syracuse Basketball player did this year. We give each player a grade as well as expectations for next year.

Syracuse Basketball and its fans had high expectations coming into this season that were never realized. The two grad-transfers more than did their share in a new system, but those around them mostly took a step back.

The seniors who were supposed to be the strength and backbone of this group barely showed up at all. This lack of production led to Jim Boeheim’s worst season (in terms of losses-15) ever as well as a NIT berth.

So, how did the Orange players do this year? Inside the Loud House grades each player, (except walk-ons) and tells you how they did, as well as expectations for next year.
