Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 1479296, member: 724"] What did Syracuse really tangibly lose from the penalties? Certainly not an NCAA birth last year, they weren't making the tourney either way. Is missing the NIT really a loss? Yes they have fewer scholarships, but what has that actually cost them? Kevin Huerter is the only guy who probably would have come here that we didn't end up with. I suppose we lost Boeheim coaching 9 games next year, but considering Hopkins is next in line anyway I'm actually excited to see him get a chance to coach. The NCAA has limited enforcement abilities. Syracuse went years putting very little effort into NCAA compliance, and all it cost them was Kevin Huerter. If they put any effort at all into NCAA compliance they would never have got hit at all. The punishment was not excessive. The problem is that other schools do much worse (but are better at compliance) and get little to no penalties. [/QUOTE]
