This year has been an improvement because I've become accustomed to expecting a couple of loses to some really bad teams by this time in the season.

At the game. Cuse side is really quiet on defense. USF side super loud on defense. Fans are not helping.

Unfortunately the NCAA and Universities took ethics out of the equation when they started chasing that TV money with little benefit to the athletes. I agree that there needs to be a fundamental change to the system, but the NCAA and schools are getting what they deserve now. They could've made...

That's not the reality. Football and basketball are about making money. All this conference realignment and all those rules that they imposed on the athletes that were not in place for regular students proves that. Now they are being forced to give athletes freedom, it's not because they are...

You'll have to ask the university what sports they are going to remove because football and basketball players are no longer student athletes.

These are student athletes. Want to put rules like this transfer rule, then you gotta share that TV money and properly pay them like the professionals they are. Don't put the burden of paying them on the fans because NIL is just side money.

He's probably embarrased that he inheritted the program in a good state and now it's in a horrible state. Might want to fix it but can't face the fact that it's too late.

Because Electronic Arts was forced to pay players for using their jersey numbers and other info that clearly matched the real players. SU starts selling multiple jerseys with just the numbers of current players like Shrader, Rhino, Jesse Edwards, etc. We know exactly which players those numbers...

Would also like to see them allow former players to use this. I would love to buy an Eric Dungey and Rhino jersey.

I would be hesitant to buy a jersey with a name, unless they are a senior or it's obvious they are leaving for the draft. Otherwise, I'd rather buy a jersey with just the number, and ideally the player still gets paid.

They should do it for the "love" of the game and not "quit" on their players.

Congrats to Tucker! Gonna miss him, but it's a smart move by him. Nothing to gain and a lot to lose from playing in a meaningless bowl game. Hopes he keeps tweeting at the next level.

You actually think we are telling him what to do by speaking it in a forum??? What power do you feel we have? We gave our opinions that's it? Relax.

No $#17. I'm excited that we are in a bowl game, even if it's a middle of the road one. It's obvious that my comment was in the context of a Sean Tucker concentrating for the draft. The bowl game is meaningless for his future. He doesn't need it.

No it doesn't matter. There's nothing to gain from playing a middle of the road bowl game and much more to lose. So you're saying he has as much to gain from playing a middle of the road and meaningless bowl game than preparing for the combine? Ultimately it's his decision and I'm fine either way.

The actual stat doesn't matter. What matters is that there is still a risk. Not worth it for one last meaningless game.

He should absolutely not play. He should think about his future and not risk getting hurt.

Am I imagining things? Did this drive have no penalties?

Love it! This is awesome!

Why did they take out Devito after his best drive?

It all started to go downhill when we were #1 in the country with a 25-0 record and then lost to a horrible Boston College team.

The beginning of last season was the first time I was no longer excited for the season to begin. While, I put on every game, I no longer actively watch them. They are just background noise while I do something else. It sucks starting every season knowing Cuse is a bubble team at best.

Maybe we can tire out the opponents defense this time.

It looks like Dior might not be coming here.

We took it away from them. Our bigs were what really won this game and they were the most active I've seen all season.

This felt like how we ended the football season. Didn't go the way we wanted, but I felt good at the end.

I agree that there is some blame due to sanctions. I just get tired of people placing the majority of the blame on it.

I don't buy the fewer coaches excuse. If we are a top program then kids will still want to play for us. The sanctions, which included recruiting restrictions, didn't hurt Louisville's recruiting and they got punished harder than we did. There is a much bigger issue than the sanctions. Let's stop...

Poor reaction? We self imposed a post season ban midway through the season, so that helped keep one of our best recruiting classes from defecting. The athletic department appealed the NCAA's punishment and we got some scholarships back. They did what they can given what happened. The sanctions...

I like this idea. I think finishing the season with Georgetown will help bring back some of the excitement of the rivalry. If the teams are having a bad season then they can play for bragging rights. But what I'm really thinking of is a ranked matchup between the two teams to end the season...

Are you really surprised? I marked this game as a loss a long time ago.

Relying on transfers is another issue we have. Shows the coaching staff can't develop players.

Shows the confidence the team has in him to give him the opportunity to make that three in such a close game.

Love the way the players are responding and not letting the slow season start affect them. Really like the way Sidibe has been improving. His scoring is so important.

Give a little back?! Do you know what the man has done for the community? The way he spends his money is his business.

Things have gotten really bad if we are nitpicking about one scholarship.

The people that can't let go see Boeheim coaching like this. "At least the program wont get worse."

We've needed a center since Rakeem Christmas left.

Hey guys, when Boeheim's career is over at Syracuse let's just shutdown the program because apparently it will only get worse.

Yes they have https://www.bizjournals.com/louisville/news/2017/06/15/ncaa-levies-penalties-against-u-of-l-mens.html

Those sanctions are really hurting Louisville.

I wish scheduling with old big east rivals would be 3 game series. A Home & Home with a third game at the Garden. Wish I could be there. Go Cuse!

There is a reason the 76ers left Syracuse.

I've mentioned before that all Hop has to worry about is his school. We can talk about conferences and how other schools perform all we want. The fact is, Hop's trajectory at Washington is trending up. Our current trajectory is trending downwards. Unless Boeheim can reverse that trajectory, I...

And Clemson wasn't anywhere near what Clemson is today. But playing in the ACC made it easier for them to become who they are. I doubt they would be who they are today if they played in the SEC.

Ya'll keep giving reasons why Hop should stay at Washington. The Pac-12 being weak is not a good argument. You ultimately coach for a school. Kentucky is fine in the "weak" SEC. Gonzaga is fine also. Clemson is fine in the "weak" ACC football conference. He can schedule a tougher out of...

Those are reasons to stay in the Pac-12. The road to the NCAA tourney is easier. Who cares how other teams do, all he has to do is worry about his team. He is also doing better job at recruiting there than when he was in the ACC. Unless Jim Boeheim can improve the situation here, I dont see Hop...

We are well on our way to being under .500 this year. And the way we've performed the last 5 years in the regular season, it's looks to only get worse.

If I was Hopkins, I would not want to come back. He's doing well, getting his recruits and the school loves him. Why come back to a declining Syracuse and rebuild from scratch? I think Syracuse would have better luck grabbing an up and coming mid major coach who is willing to go through the...

I just went on ESPN.com to check out the time and TV listing for our Liberty game. I loaded up the scores page and clicked on the filter to change it from Top 25 to ACC...... then I was like "HOLD UP! HOLD UP!! WE ARE TOP 25!!!!" This team is making me so proud! Good luck to them on Saturday!
