On Monday, Matthew Gutierrez, who covers Syracuse basketball for The Athletic, tweeted that the Orange would be "somewhere around 17-5 overall" and in the field of 68 if reserves Jesse Edwards and Kadary Richmond had logged more minutes. The duo combined to score 12 points in a 72-70 win over North Carolina that day.

Gutierrez tweeted on Tuesday that he and Boeheim were "all good on this" after they had a conversation about his observations. On Wednesday, however, Boeheim seemed to respond to Gutierrez's original tweet when asked a question postgame.

"But if I'd played Jesse and Kadary, we'd probably be 22-2 now," Boeheim said after Wednesday's win. "I just didn't see that. Couldn't figure it out by myself after 45 years. I need a reporter to figure that out ... who has never played basketball and is 5-foot-2."


Go Gophers!!
