FIFY

No you didn't, you skirted the issue. We are talking about Syracuse here. Everyone is slamming Syracuse for this as well and yet...it is the Penn State guy that you want to shut up?

Sorry bud but its hypocritical. I'm not trying to pick a fight, just speaking the truth as I see it.

Do you believe what you write? The PSU dude introduced Bernie Fine into the convo and one lone UConn fan also stated something about his wife (which I replied to)...Your truth sucks (as everyone wasn't slamming Cuse about Fine just a PSU fan and some random UConn fan).

There was plenty of negative posting towards Syracuse on the first page, where this all began, so it is amusing that you are trying to condense the situation.

I always believe what I write, unfortunately some folks like you always seem to have to resort to misrepresenting.

I was arguing with the PSU fan over Bernie Fine (nothing else)...is it that hard to understand? I'm done with that...said my peace.

I'm calling BS on this. Self-imposing a ban in a year where the NIT is the likely destination is no punishment at all. I have no idea what Syracuse is being accused of or if they are guilty, but if they are guilty of serious wrongdoing, I would hope the NCAA will impose a real punishment, although I have no faith in the NCAA to get it right though.

Very true. Jim Boeheim, though, he won't get any heat over this rather lame move. That man is protected by ESPN big time and he'll get a complete "free pass" on this one. Much like the "free pass" he got back in November 2011 after he publicly called Bernie Fine's accusers liars and frauds and opportunists.

It's still stunning that Boeheim got NO heat for that back in November 2011.

Umm they were liars and opportunists...precious coming from a Penn State fan.

Take it easy, I'm still trying to grow the Big Ten board, I don't need them scared away.

If he gets scared away by a Cuse fan...just wait till a tOSU fan starts ripping into him. Sports Internets is Serious Business

I'm not sure calling Boeheim a cheater or the Syracuse program dirty really accomplishes anything. Syracuse made mistakes, some would say even innocent ones. The current players are innocent in all of this. I'm sure the NCAA will recognize that and limit the harm. The last time Boeheim got caught cheating was in the 1990's, so the NCAA will look to his reputation. No sense trying to harm it just for the sake of appeasing certain elements.

To be fair, he was right in '11, and it was pretty obvious at the time.

If memory serves me right, UConn got the hammer over APR. There's no way in heck UK can consistently motivate *that* many one and dones to go to class *every* year without cooking grades. There just isn't. The NCAA is a lot of things, but fair isn't one of them.
