You cared enough to open the thread and post in it, so maybe start there?Jesus Christ why do people care
Yup 9:25 would have been fine, right before the reveal.9:30 on March 13th would have been fine.
Yeah, I think SU could have gotten out in front of this one better, but Pete is great. He always gets back to me. He wrote me back last night, at close to midnight, saying he was sorry for the delay in providing a statement about the NIT stuff. And I'm a nobody lol.Not to beat a horse that's already dead but that is what some fans concerns are. Pete is the Director of Athletic Communication. He generally does a great job, but this wasn't a shining moment for Syracuse.
You’re right I am crying, screaming, yelling, puking from behind, pooping out my mouth, and shivering my TimbersYou cared enough to open the thread and post in it, so maybe start there?
Nah, you create trust and brand by winning.That is how you build trust and brand. Embrace the fact that folks care and want to know.
Yep. It was frustrating when it happened under JB, but you could explain it away because he was of a different time and he was going to say and do whatever he wanted anyway and he could always hide behind his accomplishments and standing in the community.Considering we have one of the best communications school in the nation you would think we know how to better manage the news and messaging around stories like Boeheim's firing/retirement/whatever-that-was, or the NIT turn-down by us/by them/whatever-it-was, or some of the mid-season team and/or locker-room drama. But it seems like news releases on these stories came out incomplete and confused, followed by cleanup after the fact requiring additional communications.
Sports is typically a spectator event. People care about the teams they root for. They want to know what is going on. In this age of instant and pervasive social media we need to do a much better job of messaging, from the get-go, when we are in the news. And, to borrow from crisis management, it is best to communicate early, clear, and honest information.

You can do both!Nah, you create trust and brand by winning.

Remember when people were all in their feelings on this board at Babers for not coaching that pointless bowl game?We need to do a better job of winning.
All the other stuff you mention is what people focus on when we're not winning enough.
No one will remember this, or care, once names start hitting the portal. For now, it's just downtime filler and gives people something to complain about in a no tourney season.
One coach was fired and the other isn’t. Not exactly equivalent.Remember when people were all in their feelings on this board at Babers for not coaching that pointless bowl game?
That was fun. This is the basketball equivalent.

This seems like a bit of an overreaction. We declined an NIT bid. The fact the SUAD didn't consider the personal timeline demands of a handful of fans doesn't make it a crisis and doesn't need to be treated as such.Considering we have one of the best communications school in the nation you would think we know how to better manage the news and messaging around stories like Boeheim's firing/retirement/whatever-that-was, or the NIT turn-down by us/by them/whatever-it-was, or some of the mid-season team and/or locker-room drama.

Are you a donor? appreciate your support trulyNo real response to this.

Would have been better to have included some mention of declining the NIT (if in fact they did decline it) or not having any post season. Leaves more questions to not mention it at all. This is getting weirder. The silence is getting louder.

Nah, you create trust and brand by winning.
Pats won 6 Super Bowls being pr1ckly, "On to Cincinnati", not putting players on the injury report, not explaining why Malcolm Butler didnt play, etc etc etc. Most Pats fans embraced the lack of info.
Once they started losing, then it became a problem.
If we were winning, much like the JB drama back in the day, the vast majority of people didn't care
(Really, you can't say PR!CKLY on here?)
