What They're Saying About Gerry McNamara
"Congratulations to an amazing friend, colleague, and coach. I can't wait to watch you lead your own program with the same heart and dedication you have given us all these years. 'Cuse family forever."
Adrian Autry, Syracuse Men's Basketball Head Coach
"I don't think there's anyone who fits Siena better than Gerry. He understands the game and the transfer portal world really well, is exceptionally well-prepared, and knows how to get the best out of his players. He's excellent with player development - it's a strong suit of his, really - and I think he's a perfect fit for Siena."Â
Jim Boeheim, Hall of Fame Syracuse Head CoachÂ
"One of my favorite things about Syracuse was being able to work out with G-Mac every day. He's a big reason why I've had the career I've been able to have. He wants his players to succeed more than anything. Most importantly, he's family for life and someone I'm forever grateful for."Â
Buddy Boeheim, Detroit Pistons Guard, Former Syracuse Star
"Coach McNamara helped me tremendously at Syracuse on and off the court. He's great with "X's and O's" as well as a great workout coach. He was someone that went through it all at Syracuse as a player, so he could relate to alot of things I was experiencing. It was great to lean on him at those times, and he helped me through them."
Trevor Cooney, Former Syracuse Star
"Siena is getting a hard worker and a leader who knows what it takes to get to the top because he has been to the top!"
Hakim Warrick, Syracuse Teammate, Former NBA Player, Detroit Pistons Scout
