Telling a lie about Jb the first time you go on tv talking about him is pretty bad. I doubt Bernie told a lie about JB in 30 years.
Dumb question: but what is the third investigation that everyone is referring to? SPD in 2002, University in 2005...what was the other that JB said revealed nothing?Um, really? There was an investigation...by three different outlets, in which, the university hired a very respectable law firm to conduct theirs. How do you know what Boeheim is or isn't privey to? Maybe he has plenty of facts? If that investigation had revealed anything that made Bernie's character shoddy, I believe JB/the university would've parted ways with him...
Nope, he also said they were doing it for money. I love the guy, but he overplayed this one. I think Nancy Cantor would agree with me.

ESPN also did an investigation when Davis initially contacted them, and they decided not to run the story because they couldn't corroborate it.Dumb question: but what is the third investigation that everyone is referring to?

gotcha...i was counting all in 2002 as one.The PS as well as ESPN's OTL...
Has the SPD even confirmed that Davis contacted them in 2002?It remains to be seen if SPD actually investigated anything in 2002. The PS ran their story yesterday about what they looked at in 2002. The University has stated their attorneys conducted a 4 month investigation. I'm not sure that ESPN has actually stated what the extent of their investigation was.
Boeheim dealt with the Davis issue several years ago after Davis had been close to the program. The history they have together is more than just since the most recent announcement. JB has to be pissed at Davis if he's convinced that Bernie did no wrong.Its just the perception of calling a potential victim a liar. No reason he could not have said all that he did and left out the liar part.
I understand that. I understand responding forcefully. But I think you have to understand that calling a potential victim a "liar" isnt always the best from a public perception standpoint (which is my point). He could have just said "we've been through this thoroughly for years and there is nothing that I have ever seen that indicates BF did anything wrong." Just leave out the "liar" part...because that is the part that can come back and haunt him/us.Boeheim dealt with the Davis issue several years ago after Davis had been close to the program.
