Boeheim in 2014.
- ... that Jim Boeheim (pictured) was the head basketball coach at the same place (Syracuse University) for 47 years? Source: Boeheim does not have a parallel in major college athletics. There has never been a Division I coach in men's basketball, women's basketball or football who has spent more than 40 years at their alma mater and never coached anywhere else. Boeheim's the only one. There is no coaching figure more synonymous and literally affiliated with only one school.

- Comment: I think it is neat to coach at a single job for 47 years.
5x expanded by Kiran891 (talk) and 156.63.116.26 (talk). Nominated by Kiran891 (talk) at 17:22, 10 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Jim Boeheim; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
@Kiran891: Sorry, but I don't think this is eligible to be approved as per DYK rules, every nomination must be created, 5x expanded, or made into a GA in the past 7 days. this doesn't look to be 5x expanded in the past 7 days and thus, is ineligible. Sorry. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:21, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
