This should be the start of a mass exodus at Syracuse following the retirement of head coach Jim Boeheim. Girard is now the fifth player to depart the program, and we’re less than a month into the team’s offseason. The upstate New York native is a strong three-point shooter that has been the head of the Orange offense for the past four seasons. He has valuable experience in the ACC and should provide a valuable grad transfer to whichever program receives him. He is a grad transfer with one year of eligibility remaining.
In 2022, Girard averaged 16.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 3.0 assists in 32 starts this season.
