Message: [QUOTE="Forloveoforange, post: 2044073, member: 1015"] Things were good in 2011. All time high as far as record (up through 2012). Then the Bernie Fine controversy hit. Things were still in place to have a great record in 2011-2012, despite all controversy. But I think the controversy had its affect, to make it not as good a season as it could have been. And its all been downhill from there, except for a couple final fours. This could all be predictable without blaming the staff. Its been all about the player quality, but you can't necessarily blame the staff. Its just been tough since 2011 for recruiting, and of course getting close to retirement of coach could definitely affect future recruiting, but to blame the coach and staff might be wrong. It really seems like the NCAA plays favorites, and Syracuse having the utmost success 2010-2012 was not a postitive. I think we should support the staff and realize that Syracuse has not been treated fairly. [/QUOTE]
