Is it crazy to think a President Biden can influence the NCAA to get JB his wins back? Yes the president has more important things on his agenda, but even if it's a ghost written letter? Is it crazy to think this could happen?

Please keep politics out of the post, really genuinely curious if anyone thinks this is more than a pipe dream.

All politics aside, this is off the wall. Why on earth would any president give a poop about this at all, let alone enough to put pressure on an organization to "change its rules" or whatever. Just the optics of that would not be worth the risk if it were to come out (and it would come out).
 
If JB or filled a lawsuit.
Maybe it could happen but then he would be putting a target back on the program.

The only one with standing is Jim Boeheim and I doubt he wants to sue.

Penn State sued the NCAA over It’s penalties thru a process claim they said they were denied.
SU should have done the same thing but they took their penalties.
 
JB should just take to Twitter and declare them restored while we are still operating in this alternative reality where facts don’t matter. I think his window for doing this may be closing.
 
Yes I don't even think Jb would want him doing it for him. One day common.sense will prevail and it will be done.

After the first 3 months when he fixes all the Trump catastrophes, Biden will have a bit more time for frivolous stuff like this.

I am almost convinced this will happen. Biden loves JB. And it would only take one phone call and it wouldn't come from Biden. Biden loves, loves, loves Jb. Pols make these type of phone calls all the time.
 
Millions unemployed, a global pandemic, trillions of dollars at stake in a stimulus package, fractured relationships with allies, ballooning debt, underfunded schools, uncertain longevity of social security, 70 million fellow Americans that he is gonna work hard to win over, and JB's ~100 wins.

To be honest, it probably depends what he wants to prioritize.

You think that is what it is? it's one phone call by someone else. just letting them know that Biden is a JB fan. The NCAA would get the message. Stuff like that happens every day. It's not like President Biden, you can deal with Covid or get JB his wins. What do you want to do? It's a passing comment.

You mean you don't envision a week-long, all hands on deck negotiation?

Live on FoxNews tonight:

"Joe Biden has a country where 8 million people are unemployed. Schools are still struggling to find cleaning supplies to disinfect desks, and 125,000 people contracted COVID while 1,200 died today. Paris had three citizen beheaded in places of worship during international squabbles on free speech, but he still found time to have Pete Buttigieg call Mark Emmert to make sure Tyler Ennis' half court shot that everyone in Central New York celebrated over in February of 2015 actually counted according to Wikipedia."

Dude, it's the POTUS... the most important man in the world. The fact that you'd even consider it important for him to lobby to reinstate silly basketball wins that everyone knows happened and everyone knows was vacated for a stupid reason, during a time when America is hurting is ridiculous.

What do I want the POTUS to do? Focus on something that matters?

Dude, please stop with that. Please. Maybe I haven't made myself clear because I said it was one phone call. I have to assume you didn't read that. Biden talks to kids on the phone about their problem with a studder. Give it a rest. Dude. And we will see what happens. Paris beheading. JFC.

I agree. Helping kids work through their stutters is meaningless -- especially when you're a retired dude not working in politics. Let's call the NCAA as president-elect instead and get JB's wins restored - presidential transitions are easy with a president who won't concede. JB's wins are what's important.

Matter of fact, Detroit was huge in this election. Let's call up Rob Manfred and get Armando Galarraga's perfect game counted.

Los Angeles helped deliver the popular vote, let's get La La Land's Oscar restored.

Baltimore showed up. Jeffrey Maier never happened.

We can also get a couple of Aaron Craft's hand-checks on Dion called in the Elite 8.

I also think we should try to move the Thunder back to Seattle. Let's have Joe make it happen.

I am starting to agree with you. Let's start a running list.

SMH Would i want Biden to take any real time away from anything not even close to important to do that. Of course not. But people meet people and things get said.

Tonight you've gone from "Biden loves, loves, loves JB and will make these things happen" to "People meet people and things get said."

Biden does love jb. And that is how something like this happens. if you thought I was saying this was on the top of his list of things to do, and I have never said anything like that, sorry. Do I think Biden might do something for JB, yeah. JB and K were in Obama's office and Obama, not dasher, Obama said, he talks about Boeheim all the time. He came in to our locker room after the final four loss in '16. JB talks about how much Biden loves Syracuse basketball. Said it this week. I believe Biden will speak for Jb if the timing is correct. You want to make a bigger deal of it than that. Be my guest. One thing, I have been here a long time. I guess you have to. Until tonight, I have never noticed you before. and not for nothing, it was someone else that has been here forever that started this thread.

JB talking about Biden loving Cuse hoops and Biden talking to the NCAA about getting JB's wins back are very far apart my man.

If it happens, I'll be here to eat crow. When Biden addresses every issue I brought up and never talks about the NCAA reinstating JB's wins, will you?

But congratulations for having more posts in a shorter period of time than me on this board.

This is the Seinfeld of arguments. The argument about nothing. Sometimes we just have to debate when something else is bugging us, huh?

Of course I will be here. I am not expecting that Biden will make a statement that he got jb his wins. LOL We just got rid of that guy. Don't be fooled by any date, different user names. I have been here for all of the versions going back to AOL.
