Extended Cut | Syracuse at Georgetown

Yeah but people who do it against Syracuse are clearly losers, and people who do it on behalf of Syracuse just have that dog in them -- see the difference?

In all seriousness I agree and he needs to reel it in, especially talking to the bench or coaches. Jabari Smith really pissed me off when he did that to JB a couple years ago during a blowout. I've never been a fan of s***-talking and I take the silent approach, but Judah's antics haven't upset me yet because I feel like the program's been lacking fire over the last few years.
In fairness to Jabari Smith he was defending his guy after JB pretty openly chit talked Walker Kessler when he left UNC haha

My recollection was JB said something like why’s that guy leaving he’s going to start and get tons of shots, but maybe he said more than that. I think Bruce Pearl tried to rile up his team by making it seem worse than it was.

Yep...

"Why Walker Kessler would leave there is beyond me,” Boeheim said. “He’s going to get the ball 25 times a game there. It’s just wounded pride. That’s crazy.”

Kessler went on to be a 1st round pick out of Auburn and was 3rd in Rookie of the Year voting last year.
 
And any player who did that against us would be skewered by this board. It’s bush league and Judah needs to quit it.
Judah does it a little different than say Devo did it, and Devo was probably our least liked guy in our opponents eyes. I think the more our opponents hated Devo, the more Cuse fans embraced him. IIRC.

And someone has to be good to be hated (unless it's Michael Graham). Who didn't want Chevy Troutman or the Foreign Dude from Pitt for our team. How about any of the white kids from Notre Dame. But we had our own white guy who helped lead us to a NC.

I'm all for rivalries. it's great for the players, the coaches and the fans. The 6 OT game was epic, but the fact that it was Yukon elevated it to an entirely different stratosphere.
