Message: [QUOTE="Capt. Tuttle, post: 191259, member: 191"] I hope we stick it to the BE. Press Conference: " The commissioner has said that he is keeping us to the full 27 month buy out. We respect his word, and as a founding member of the Big East, Syracuse will always keep its contractual word with the conference and our fellow members. It is up to the BE whether or not to let us out earlier, but we will not pay more than the contractually agreed upon $5 million. As a private university, we cannot simply raise more money by going to the tax payers. We look forward to competing in, and winning, the Big East for the next two years. In particular, I know that coach Boeheim, his players, and especially our fans and alumni in the NY metropolitan area are looking forward to "occupying Madison Square Garden" for as long as we continue to participate in the Big East Tournament." or something along those lines. Lets go all Jim Irsay on the Big East. [/QUOTE]
