SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse freshman forward Chris McCullough is out for the season. Coach Jim Boeheim says McCullough suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and will miss the remainder of the season. McCullough injured the knee Sunday night against Florida State, laning awkwardly trying to catch a high pass in transition. He was helped to the locker room and never returned. Surgery has not yet been scheduled. The 6-foot-10 McCullough was averaging 9.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 2.1 blocks and had started all 16 games. Boeheim said sophomore Tyler Roberson would assume McCullough's spot in the starting lineup. 10 best college basketball national championship teams since 2000, ranked These are the 10 best men's college basketball national championship teams since 2000, as ranked by NCAA.com's Andy Katz.
