Welcome to International Stand Up to Bullying Day!
International STAND UP to Bullying Day is a special semi-annual event in which participants sign and wear a pink “pledge shirt” to take a visible, public stance against bullying. The event takes place in schools, workplaces, and organizations in 25 countries around the globe on the third Friday of November to coincide with Anti-bullying week, and then again on the last Friday of February.

Watch the Phone Footage from Syracuse Fans of the Shot That Beat Duke | Orange Fizz - Free Syracuse Recruiting News, Always Looking at the Future of the Orange (orangefizz.net; D.A.)
The series of camera phone footage from last night’s incredible buzzer beater is phenomenal. It made it’s way throughout SportsCenter and circulated around social media all night/day. Personally, I can’t get enough of it. Whether this enough to lock in SU to the field of 68 is another argument, but for now watching this over and over is just too good.

Syracuse needs John Gillon to be consistently good, not occasionally great - The Juice Online (the juice; Stechschulte)
”I talked to them about being consistently good, not occasionally great.” – Syracuse head football coach Dino Babers, Wednesday, October 19, 2016
It is one of the more important quotes from the aftermath of the biggest win of Babers’ first season at Syracuse, when the Orange rose up to knock off a nationally-ranked Virginia Tech team.
But, no matter how many times you watched the video in the after that upset, you were likely tipped off by the date that the sentence was not from the viral video locker room celebration speech with the team hanging on his every word.
Rather, that statement came from a rather hum-drum appearance on ESPN’s “Sportscenter,” one in which Babers tried to downplay his locker room words, at times almost looking embarrassed by the attention he had drawn.
His statement, however, is one that the current hero of the Syracuse basketball team, John Gillon, should listen to. The graduate student has shown a flair for the dramatic, ranging from scoring the final 13 points for SU when they knocked off Florida State to his 43-point explosion (including a 3 to force overtime) en route to beating North Carolina State to Wednesday night’s banked buzzer-beater to defeat Duke.

Yup, That is Magic. JB and SU Beat him in 1977
Jim Boeheim's top 50 Syracuse basketball wins (ranked) (PS; Waters)
Editor's Note: We put this list together back on Feb. 3 before Boeheim's 1,000th win. Since then, the win over Virginia for the milestone win and John Gillon's buzzer-beater against Duke have cracked the list.
So now we have 52 wins.

Flood watches expanded in Central NY; heavy rain, snowmelt could cause problems (PS; Coin)
Record-warm temperatures and a shot of heavy rain this weekend could cause minor flooding in Central New York, the National Weather Service said.
The weather service issued a flood watch today for Oneida County for a cold front that will move in Saturday afternoon, bringing potentially heavy rain.
"This rainfall combined with significant snow melt will increase runoff into rivers and streams around the county," the watch said. "Minor flooding will be possible from Saturday into Sunday."
The weather service said smaller streams and creeks are at highest risk for flooding, although there could be some flooding along Fish Creek, Oneida Creek, Oriskany Creek, Sauquoit Creek and the Black River.
Flood watches have also been issued for Oswego, Lewis and Jefferson counties, and for a number of counties in the Adirondacks.
A weather alert is also in place for other areas of Central New York, including dhenango, Cortland, Madison, Onondaga and Otsego counties. Up to 1.5 inches of water could run off from melting snow, the weather service said.
"This, coupled with a burst of moderate rainfall along a strong cold front Saturday, will lead to significant rises on the rivers in the region," the alert said. "There is a chance that some of the headwater river locations could experience minor flooding."
