Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 88-68 loss to NC State. 

The Orange have hit the low point of Adrian Autry's tenure as head coach as it hit its first four-game losing streak under the Orange head coach. 

Quadir Copeland, a guard Syracuse told to hit the road two years ago, dropped 19 points and 10 assists on the Orange in what turned into a blowout loss. 

Axe discusses how some of the same old mistakes haunted Syracuse in loss including a lack of offensive cohesion and quality shots at the hoop. Now you can add in some defensive breakdowns to the mix as SU's zone got ripped apart by the Wolfpack. 

Things have never been worse under Autry for the 12-9 (3-5) Orange and there are still 10 games to play in the regular season.

Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 76-74 loss to Virginia Tech on Wednesday night.

Syracuse's season and Adrian Autry's seat have hit a boiling point after two bad losses for the Orange that dropped them to 12-7 (3-3). 

Fans are fed up. There were audible boos and chants to fire the coach in a sparsely-attended JMA Dome on Wednesday night.  Autry was visibly frustrated in his press conference, dropping an F bomb just 30 seconds in. Players were despondent in the locker room. 

Axe discusses how the conversation going forward will be primarily about Autry's job (as if it hasn't been already) and every loss going forward will only compound that situation. 

Axe played two clips from Autry in asking why SU has lost the second-half so often this season and what his message to a frustrated fan base is about how he will lead Syracuse forward.

Brent Axe, Javon Edmonds and Chris Carlson evaluate Syracuse football's transfer portal haul on a live episode of Syracuse Sports. 

Where did Syracuse improve the roster in the portal and where did Fran Brown fall short in filling in some of SU's holes? 

Brent, Chris and Javon discuss that and examine SU's new quarterbacks and if any can push to be the starting quarterback for the Orange with Steve Angeli still recovering from a torn achilles.

Brent Axe chats live following a brutal 81-73 loss for Syracuse basketball in overtime at Boston College. 

SU gave this one away. Literally. 18 turnovers were killer for SU, which led to 22 BC points. Donnie Freeman and Naithan George both had 7 turnovers in the game. 

Axe discusses what went wrong for SU at BC, how trust in Adrian Autry as an in-game tactician has all but faded out, how SU has to get its point guard scenario figured out and what this loss does to SU's NCAA Tournament resume.

Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 94-85 win over Florida State. 

Donnie Freeman was the star again for the Orange in dropping 25 points on the Seminoles, the third straight game he has scored 20 or more points for SU.

While Freeman was SU's North Star, he had plenty of help as Tyler Betsey scored 18 points off the bench, Naithan George dished out 13 assists and JJ Starling scored 15 points against FSU to give Syracuse its 6th win in the last 7 games.

Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 83-72 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday afternoon. 

It was SU's 5th win in 6 games and feature a dunk from William Kyle III that left everyone in stunned silence. What a play! 

Axe also discussed Donnie Freeman's 3rd straight solid performance since returning from injury, a great bounce back game from JJ Starling, how SU's 3-point shooting needs to improve beyond how it did against the Panthers and how the Orange needs to avoid its "witching hour" in the second half going forward.

Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 82-72 win over Georgia Tech. 

It was a tale of two halves for Syracuse. The Orange offense was humming in the first half. SU scored a season-high 44 points before halftime. The ball and the team were moving and Donnie Freeman showed his importance to the Orange on the way to a game-high 27 points. 

SU was up by 20 points at one point of the game, but saw that lead melt down in the 2nd half to just five with 11 2nd-half turnovers and consistent defensive miscues.

Wins are hard to get on the road in the ACC but SU made it just a little too hard on themselves in this one.

Axe discussed that, Naithan George's solid effort in a return to Atlanta and the importance of avoiding stepping in a pothole for the next four games before the schedule ramps up later in the month for SU.

Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 64-61 loss to Clemson at the JMA Dome on New Year's Eve.

SU's furious rally in the 2nd half came up just short as Donnie Freeman's 3-pointer in the closing seconds came up short. 

Freeman provided a major spark for the Orange in scoring 18 second-half points in his return to the lineup but SU's turnovers and poor interior defense were costly against the Tigers.  

As discussed with Syracuse Sports Insiders on the live podcast, SU fans continue to have big questions about what offense SU coach Adrian Autry is trying to run and his ability as an X's and O's tactician.

Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 77-48 win over Stonehill to conclude non-conference play at the JMA Dome. 

Are the Orange ready for ACC play? Brent Axe goes over his naughty and nice list for Syracuse basketball to see where they are ready for the challenge of league play (more talent, Donnie Freeman's return, solid backcourt play) vs. the weaknesses (free throw shooting, 3-point shooting, Adrian Autry's inconsistent coaching patterns) that could hold the Orange back.
