Brent Axe reacts live to Syracuse basketball's 98-45 loss to UConn in the NCAA Tournament. 

The conversation wasn't so much about SU's worst-ever NCAA tournament loss. Losing to UConn was inevitable. I was more about where Syracuse goes in the offseason and how Coach Felisha Legette-Jack can build on SU's 24-9. 

The priority at the top of the list is to ensure Uche Izoje returns to the Syracuse roster and is paid properly through NIL to make sure it happens and to build up the roster around her along with returning talent.

Axe also heard from Syracuse Sports Insiders and what they thought of SU women's basketball's season.

Brent Axe reacts to the news that Gerry McNamara appears set to take over as the new Syracuse men's basketball coach. 

As Axe discusses, McNamara may turn out to be the best business decision for Syracuse basketball to raise the needed NIL funds as his hire will galvanize some donors that would like to see a return to SU's glory days. 

How did Siena's near upset of No. 1 seed Duke in the NCAA Tournament fuel his cause? Which of his assistant coaches and players could Gerry bring with him to Syracuse? Which players on the current Orange roster could he get to stay on in the new administration? 

We discussed all that and more with terrific insight from our Syracuse Sports Insiders!

The Orange got a balanced effort from Uche Izoje (23 pts), Laila Phelia (18 points), Olivia Schmitt (15 points, all 3's), Sophie Burrows (14 points after 29 minutes scoreless) and 13 rebounds from Journey Thompson.
