Jim and Juli Boeheim spoke at the Brazzlebox Summit on Wednesday.
We are not ready to say Coach Boeheim is becoming kindler and gentler, but while speaking at the Brazzle Box Small Business Summit this week he launched into a down right motivational story of perseverance by Dajuan Coleman. He talked about the intense rehab and Coleman not being able to play any basketball for a few years. Coleman has made it back from a severe knee injury and is back on the floor for the CUSE. Listen below for an excerpt of Coach Boeheim’s comment.
SU was not ranked in the recent SI top 25, and we don’t know where they will end the season, but one thing we can say for sure, Boeheim certainly cares deeply about his players. But then if you heard him speak at the Homegoing for Eddie Moss, or saw him defend Andre Hawkins after that Big East Tournament game versus Georgetown back in the day, you know this already.
It’s hard for one person to save or change the genre, but newcomer Raury, from the ATL, makes rap seem fresh again. He is clever and interesting, in the way Andre3000 was when you first saw and heard him. Raury performed at Syracuse as part of his current tour.
Fashion entrepreneur and TV star Daymon John talked about the influence of LL Cool J in his business development at the Brazzlebox Small Business Summit on Wednesday.
There are do-overs and make-overs, but one of the most stealth ads, “GAP as FUBU,” was maybe one of the greatest get-overs. We wonder if this campaign is studied by advertising students today? Well, if not in marketing classes, hopefully in entrepreneurship classes.
How easy is this? Sometimes the little guy triumphs.
