On this episode, The Chucker and Joe Kohm a member of the 1987 Syracuse Orange Basketball team join me for Tales from the Bench.On March 30, 1987, Joe – then Joey – Kohm had a front-row seat to one of the most memorable shots in NCAA basketball history: Keith Smart’s baseline jumper that gave Indiana its fifth national title -- and handed an ascendant Syracuse program a crushing loss. A senior walk-on on that 1987 Syracuse squad, Kohm spent three years in the Syracuse program culminating in that near-victory in the NCAA title game and a school record 31-win season. Kohm joins the 19nine podcast to reflect on that magical season and the title that almost was. Welcome, Joe, and thanks for carving out some time for us to discuss Syracuse hoops.
