We really don’t know if Coach K likes bourbon or baseball. Does he like anything other than basketball and making menacing faces at officials and student journalists? Well that won’t stop us from suggesting some suitable Syracuse-related gift ideas:

  • A piece of the Carrier Dome roof signed by Jim, Jimmy and Buddy Boeheim
  • A replica Carrier Dome tin
  • Voucher for two free Dome Dogs
  • A bottle of Tully’s Honey Mustard
  • An autographed copy of Forever Orange
  • VIP passes to the New York State Fair
  • A gift card to Eva’s European Sweets
  • A sports coat with a custom lining featuring John Gillon’s buzzer-beater
