Well we made the front page of ESPN at least

[Cusefan0307]

JB reminds me of my 79 year old father more and more everyday. Miserable and says wayyyy too much that’s on his mind.

 

[orangemass]

Look just throwing it out there, but if Gut really is 5 2, I'd post him up and drop baby hooks all over him.

Enough of the JG fat jokes already

 

[Cuse826]

espn does. They put it on the front page of their website

They want clicks and he brings it. It's not a story.

Boeheim derides reporter over height, credibility

Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim made remarks about a reporter's height and perceived lack of basketball experience following the Orange's win over Clemson on Wednesday.

www.espn.com

This has become a weekly occurrence.

 

[NateW]

SHORT LIVES MATTER!

Hey now... All Heights Matter

 

[DilemaCuse]

Wildhack really needs to sit down with Jim and discuss some things

This is starting to remind me of how Bob Knight went out w Myles Brand at IU back in 2000

 

[CDNCuse]

They want clicks and he brings it. It's not a story.

No. The story isnt the reporter's height (although that was a dumb thing to say) its this silly old-school notion that no one could possibly understand basketball unless they played. Suck a lame take by JB.

Who do we think JB will choke?

We can rule out Joe cuz of his size 22 neck

wait. They want clicks, but it’s not a story?

i didn’t realize Jim Boeheim is a huge online draw, bringin the clicks.

 

[GooseMutt]

It’s obvious someone with immense power has it out for Boeheim going back to the sanctions and probably before that

 

[hoopsupstate]

I’m 5’6” tall and I could kick JB’s behind in a three point and foul shooting contest.

Fair enough.
But think it's not a story?
Just wait until someone asks this organization for comment...and there's a good chance someone will.

It's ok to criticize a reporter...you get some of the best material that way.
But why make it something of a personal attack with a height comment?
A coach who doesn't think before he speaks is not being smart.

And he wasn't "misinterpreted" about Jalen Johnson...unless he means he misinterpreted himself.
He said what was reported.

Look just throwing it out there, but if Gut really is 5 2, I'd post him up and drop baby hooks all over him.

And at 5-4 I am right there with you. With an 8 foot rim tomahawk too.

 

[dollarbill44]

SMH.

Fair enough its not the same

But Knights act grew old and tired when he wasn't winning at the same rate as he was before, sounds familiar, right?

I'm not calling for JB to be fired for this but he needs to adjust because when you step out of line its easier to fire you when your winning 60% of your games as opposed to 80%

And the way he continues to act, I dont think he realizes that

 

[CuseRunner]

Who cares?

Nobody does. Only sensitive people. Got the guy his 15 minutes. Some of you would never be able to handle Bob Knight if you can't handle JB.

 

[721Comstock]

ALL PRESS IS GOOD PRESS, KEEP THE NAME "SYRACUSE" IN THE MINDS OF ALL AND WE JUST MIGHT SNEAK OUR WAY INTO THE TOURNAMENT!

Syracuse! People are saying...

 

[HoustonCuse]

I hate how JB behaves in these press conferences, always have. But I also hate reporters so this one is a wash.

 

[Consigliere]

 

[oldpinepoint]

I’m tired of this JB and this season, let the pain end

 

[GooseMutt]

The press is chicken c h it. Boeheim is insensitive and defensive

 

[Alsacs]

Nobody does. Only sensitive people. Got the guy his 15 minutes. Some of you would never be able to handle Bob Knight if you can't handle JB.

Bob Knight was an arrogant bully who got away with way too much.
Jim Boeheim is not Bob Knight but he is his own worst problem.

 

[Consigliere]

Tried to give Gutierrez the benefit of the doubt. Wanted to believe what he really meant was that if Richmond and Edwards were playing the way they are now earlier in the season they would be 17-5. But he said if they got the minutes they deserved. Essentially saying Boeheim cost the team wins with improper coaching.

Won't defend JB belittling him, but that with that tweet he brought a retaliation on himself.

we can handle it...its how the public and recruits / parents see it and guess what ...if results are an indication over the past 6 years...THEY CARE
