How nice is it to see the coach support his players publicly on a decision like this? Of course he wants him to stay, but no need to trash the player and tell everyone he’s not ready yet. If he really thinks that and is trying to guide him for what is best for Mintz, he can do that in private...

With today’s college tuition, maybe .75???

Correct. Leave on your own terms or you’re going to be fired.

Just look back to the North Carolina game. They kept playing and almost pulled it off against Syracuse. They had two 4-point possessions (make first free throw, miss the second, get rebound, hit three pointer) down the stretch when that game should have been over.

A .500 season? Sign me up for that right now.

True, but if it was then you would know it was an authentic Syracuse University produced jersey.

Not sure if those are the scores they put up or the rebounding differential?

Odd because I thought your screen name did that. :)

Because he’s a freshman. Give him another year or two and he’ll develop the cold shoulder. Have seen other players figure it out.

Two people next to us showed up in the second quarter and then were gone at halftime. Maybe they moved to different seats but guessing not

Surprised more people aren't jumping to read the article with that teaser. I need to know who has the bigger ass.

They got farther than I think anyone could have imagined going in. They were in it last night and had a shot to win. Not many people gave them a chance last night and they almost pulled it off. Wish they won obviously, but okay with it.

Short sleeve Pearl t-shirt. Wore it to the Clemson game and have worn it for every game since.

I think it will happen again sometime, but yeah losing by 20, not sure they'll ever lose that title. And let's be thankful Syracuse wasn't the first to do it.

Yeah good point/idea with that too. I'd still probably ride it out for awhile though.

I say ride it out. Any one team is still a bit of a long shot to win it all but if $45 is that big of a deal you probably shouldn't have bet the $20 to begin with. Hang in for the chance to make a nice score. You can probably hedge for a lot more money if they make it far enough too.

I think his arms are a normal length. He just has a head like Beetlejuice.

Although to answer my own question a bit, has a kid ever decommitted and then signed back with the school they decommitted from?

Is Syracuse now completely out in February or is there still a chance he could sign here?

I like Collected in the classic. I'll caution that with the fact that I really liked Stellar Wind in the Distaff tonight though.

This and the refs that are out of position making the call also drive me nuts. Like the Cooney baseline botched call last year. One ref standing right there, but another ref out of position making the wrong call.

I was down there too and wearing my SU gear. Had a few people stop and talk basketball a few times. Wore my orange Pearl shirt at Epcot and walked past another guy in his blue Pearl shirt.

I feel like last night is the equivalent of 2 years the way it sounds like this has gone.

I know nothing other that what I'm reading here, but couldn't O13's post and the info he heard be the leak you are asking about? So if he is coming to Syracuse, it was leaked.

Free Throws: 108/190 - 56.8% That's right in our house of wheels. (Just following the board rules and regulations)

That's right in our wheelhouse!

Great first day of racing. Hope the Classic can match the Distaff, although that's going to be tough to do.

Thoughts and prayers to the family. He will be missed.

Riva Ridge and that stablemate of his...whatever his name was.

Nyquist was probably the only horse going into the Derby with a legit shot at the Triple Crown. He's still undefeated and figures to be real tough in the Preakness.

And when does Syracuse guard the inbounds and pressure the ball coming up?

Yeah, but how many of those brackets were outside of Syracuse?

The Dayton matchup seemed fishy too

Sy Syracuse would be the 8th wouldn't they?

With only one acc team in the south region is it definitely over now?

I don't know the spacing on the floor, but could Cooney have been the one who "didn't get into the position they were supposed to"? A lot of times, the guy coming over to set the screen will end up getting open because the defenders both go with the guy being screened for. So that could have...

Bloodhorse.com has a lot of info DRF.com still has some here and there, but most of it you now need to pay for

Was just thinking the same thing.

I was going to post that I think Robert is reading this board and just wants to read both of jekelish's articles.

Unfortunately that doesn't really mean anything other than possibly how much Syracuse would owe him if they terminated it early.

Thanks for reaching out to him partially from us as a fan base, but more importantly as a parent who has also gone through the process. Hopefully it helped him and the family to hear from you. I can't imagine what this might be like for the kids and the families. I wish Robert the best...

I pretty much agree, but that's probably not the best analogy. Have you seen many papers today?

Great! Can you work on getting Robert to commit tomorrow then? :) Reading this thread and the type of person he seems to be, I wish Robert the best wherever he ends up going and will root for him to do well. Of course I hope that is at Syracuse, but he needs to do what he thinks is the best...

I'm pretty positive it's some sort of brace because it's only on the one side. I would think if some kind of new shoulder pad, he would have it coming down on both sides. Could possibly have some kind of custom extra padding on one shoulder pad, but doesn't seem likely and it looks like that...

I saw it on TV too and thought the same thing. Here is a picture showing the brace/wrap.

Yes it did, unfortunately. It was odd and from where I was sitting I didn't even see the misspelling of the name at that point. I was thinking they didn't know who was who. Then add in the spelling issue and it's even more embarrassing.

Surprised it hasn't been mentioned, but how about the fact that they also presented the "Bowie" jersey to Orr. He had to hand it over to him. It seems like they didn't know which one was which.

I keep hearing/reading that Boeheim's actions were about future games/calls. However I feel if anything the opposite has happened. Has Syracuse had a block/charge call on either end of the court go their way since the Duke game? I haven't really kept track but can't think of one. And if...

Did anyone else notice that it looked like the ref signaled for two foul shots for Cooney at the end of the Maryland game and not a 1 and 1? I apologize if this was already posted. The ref put up his index finger and pinky finger on the same hand. Wouldn't that indicate two shots and not a 1...

It doesn't bother me either. Yes they lost, but it was on the road and it went to overtime. In essence they tied the #2 team in the country at the time on the road. I think they were playing better than their #17 ranking as well.
