Oh boy, this board. Okay, here is how I see it

I removed most of this post so as to avoid redundancy of the novel.

So where were you 3-4 years ago when a handful of us on this board were taking it to Boeheim and the program for allowing Boeheim to continue dragging down said program, and all people on their high horses like you did was blast us while the mods removed our posts? Oh you're finally seeing the light now? Got it. Well everything has come full circle now i guess. The chickens have come to roost. You're on board with not wanting 50/50 ACC records and losses in the teens every year now with horrible losses to the Colgates, Pitts and Georgetowns of the world sprinkled in right? Got it.

Honestly you have a lot of nerve commenting on what coaches should and shouldn't come here.
Not sure why you're going off on Dasher. He was right here 3-4 years ago.

Settle down, Sparky. You don't get to choose who posts, or what they post. This really went from 0-60 in no time. And really, for no reason. :rolleyes:

He was criticizing the program for keeping Boeheim around sparky?
 
Dash has been saying JB should retire for a while now. He may have thought we had a good team this year, but he’s definitely said JB should retire in the past due to age and lack of energy. Not sure why you’re angry at him.
I stand corrected then. He is not part of that cabal of ppl on here who went after those of us who saw all this coming and wanted JB to go along w the Hop plan. Unlike many people on this board in control of things, I can admit when I'm wrong. I will delete that post.

These are the same type issues that every single program in the country dealt with. Same conditions for everybody.

Why was Syracuse so unlucky in the transfer department? Just coincidence?
It's different with every team.

Our HC was happy beyond means with his team before this season.
Experience and good chemistry.

No excuses for what has transpired.
We lost kids and HC was fine with it.

This season being what jt has become isn’t excused for what you said.
 
Ok I got this one wrong w regard to the OP. Nice meme game btw thats just awesome. But who got the bigger picture wrong? Not me right? We're 13-12, and none of us are planning an NCAA tourney weekend in Philly.

This debacle on the hill directly impacts our lives in ways that people don't realize. Barely any of us plan ACC tourney trips since we don't know if we'll make it out of the 1st game. Beyond 6 years ago it was a shoe-in that we'd be playing out of this year's Philly region in NCAA tourney weekend 1, but JB had other plans for the program- like losing to Colgate or the Big East's celebrated 0-14 Hoyas lol. This is where we're at boys n girls, but meme me, you win.

BTW, I still follow the team like nobody's business, going to games at home and like in Boston a week and a half ago. I am just tired of watching the decline and seeing ppl not only make excuses for it but cover it up and censor the voices who brought it up here.
Who has been censored?

Seriously. Name names.

Posts that have been deleted are those that
  1. say the same thing over and over ad nauseum
  2. go too far over the line (as Justice Potter said, "I know it when I see it"
  3. call other posters names (or players, for that matter - posts that say players are playing poorly are fine; posts that say a player sucks or a player is trash are 100% going to be deleted)
  4. posts that criticize board moderation (I'm sure you and others will think we're thin-skinned, but when you have been called a Nazi enough times, you might understand)
It sure looks as if you don't read the board very closely if you think we "cover it up and censor the voices who brought it up here." Those critical posts are all over the hoops board.

The players and this team have grown tremendously over the course of this season. Would I have like them to be playing their best basketball from game 1? Yes, but that doesn't always happen and fighting thru adversity and continuing to give the effort is all I can ask. Maybe, just maybe, they will find a work around of Jesse's absence and still get to the tourney. That would be truly an accomplishment.
 
The need by people on this board, on both sides of an argument to say how brilliantly right they were or how wrong someone else was is what makes these threads sometimes unbearable. Do some of you need that much validation? Is it that important to troll someone who was wrong? The "elitist " mindset by some here is both hilarious and annoying. The "shove your face in it, your wrong " mindset is also equally tiresome. Some of you all should try the concept of civil discourse, in my opinion it provides for a better discussion.

to play devils advocate, how would anyone know who’s been censored if posts are deleted before anyone else sees them?
