C'mon. He won more games than Boeheim one time(31 wins to 30 in 2013). Last year they both won 28. Go back any further than 2013 and it's a landslide for Boeheim.

Developing players? Like developing a rookie of the year Point Guard?

They were a regional program(with a surprise final 4 run under their belt). They weren't getting rosterfuls of top 100 players pre-Boeheim.
