Are we the biggest story going into selection sunday.

[Briancuse]

Do you guys think Syracuse will be the topic most talked about in the next few days?

 

[Jasoncuse]

We're pretty irrelevant at this point.

 

[Madbiker]

Only to Syracuse fans. We're not a real good team and honestly we didn't earn an invite though we had plenty of chances. If we get in to the Dayton playoff, its a gift. Though part of me feels it's almost embarrassing to have to play in that and it might be better for image not to be subjected to it.

 

[Brooky03]

No. Nobody cares.

 

[Briancuse]

No. Nobody cares.

Well usually the last teams in are talked about a lot.

 

[bevosu]

I doubt it's the biggest, but it is the saddest.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

Will JB invite the CBS cameras into his home with the team huddled in the background anxiously awaiting the verdict if they got in or not?

Highly doubtful.

At this point the Dome staff should be preparing to host an NIT game on Wednesday night.

 

[Shark58]

we gone

 

[CaptainJ]

we gone

I'm liking that because it was creative and made me smile, not because I necessarily agree. However, if it ever had to be said that's the way Yeah, I'm feeling grateful for the little things today, like that song by Cracker said.

Uh yeah if we get the play-in game we should totally decline it. Not worth it at all...

sheesh

 

[NineOneSeven]

I need to ban myself from this board as well as ESPN until next week

 

[690West]

Well, Mike and Mike just did an entire segment on us in the first 40 minutes

 

[NineOneSeven]

What did they say?

 

[690West]

What did they say?

Saying that we're 38th in their proprietary BPI that ESPN uses now and that we have 4 wins over top 40. They also played the boeheim clip from yesterday and then discussed how the committee may view us. They teased the head of the committee at 9:00 today and that they'll ask him about Cuse

How great would today be if we won yesterday though?

If that ever happened it would become the most embarrassing moment in the history of Syracuse basketball.

I think Boeheim slandering alleged victims of sexual abuse was the most embarrassing moment in Syracuse basketball history.

Junk. If we play in the play in game we deserve to be there - and the tourney is the tourney.

Well that escalated quickly...

Don't you have to be lying in order for it to be slander?

 

[donniesyracuse]

No

This is exactly how I feel. VCU made a run from the "First Four" all the way to the final for as a 12 seed IIRC about four or five years ago. If we get in there is always a chance to win especially if we get hot from deep.

 

[Orange Barrel]

No

"Untruth" is not the same as lying. You can say something that is false and just be mistaken, which could still be slander.

Whether or not it was truly slander is irrelevant. It was an irresponsible thing for a leader of men to say. Boeheim says he regrets saying it. It is the low point in Syracuse basketball history in my opinion.

 

[Orange Barrel]

I guess you didn't actually read that definition, but whatever. Getting your righteous indignation on is what's important.
