This article recapping an interview JB did with Gottlieb might be helpful to the discussion.

Boeheim said that the 101 vacated games stem from the NCAA's findings regarding impermissible work done by members of the academic support staff and director of basketball operation Stan Kissel, as well as money a player received for giving a speech at the Oneida YMCA. Boeheim said the money was paid back but the player had not been re-instated.

"Most of them were about tutoring," Boeheim said. "Most but not all. One was a speech for $300 where the money was re-paid but not re-instated. That one was 45 games. ... The (drug policy) has nothing to do with any of the games."

Syracuse did not vacate any victories because the basketball program didn't follow the school's policy regarding failed drug tests, a third finding by the NCAA.
