Well we made the front page of ESPN at least

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

For the 10th time. The recruits/parents do not care. You think they care about Matthew Gutierrez ? You think they even know who he is ?

They don't care. Has no impact on recruiting. Our recruiting has suffered by some misses, Hopkins leaving, and GMAC being kept on the recruiting trail.
 
Had some big long message typed out but its pointless. Will keep it short and simple...if you follow recruiting and our program at all then you would know how JB is perceived by many outside of Syracuse. Not all publicity is good publicity and JB doesn't make things any easier for himself and the program. He literally gives every other coach and media person all the ammo they need to amplify our problems. Its pretty simple.
 
Things JB has unnecessarily said this year that quickly come to mind:
-Spoke negatively about another team's player because that player is leaving early for the NBA (Jalen Johnson at Duke)
-Complained about fans that think some players (e.g. Buddy and Joe) were getting too many minutes while others (e.g. Kadary weren't getting enough),
-Complained about an opponent (Buffalo) and said they would not be welcome playing in the Some
-Complained about Mate Oats for questioning Coach K's desire to cancel the season
-Belittling Gutierez

None of these things needed to be said and make JB look small. He is a representative of the University and needs to behave in a manner different than a grouchy old man.

This has become a weekly occurrence.

We just need him to make a bad comment about a different specific group and that’ll be the end of him .. you can still trash short people with impunity .. if only the reporter were fat or female instead .. the era would be over

If I were JB I would rip 45 and watch the CR’s heads of the world explode while getting positive coverage.

JB should go Popovich.
Too bad 45 is out of office and he still lives rent free in your head
 
Lol all u adults getting mad over this is funny asf

it’s a non story and it’s actually hilarious, maybe my generation isn’t as soft as people say..?

Thanks for giving your opinion 315 e money
 
I’m tired of this JB and this season, let the pain end

Is somebody forcing you to watch the games or the pressers at gunpoint?

Because if not, it's super EZ to have your pain end.
Just don't follow it anymore.

This is about Jim Boeheim coming off as a mean spirited old man who handles any slight by becoming aggressive and demeaning. And yes they do care ...and it affects the perception of this program mightily

Bingo
 
Really JB Nose Joke. Childish.
Oh height comments is mature...mine was a joke his an insult. His insult gains national attention. Mine is confined to a board that is read by a relative few Syracuse fans some of whom see his insults as a way he uses his bully pulpit. I apologize will he?
 
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.

Savvy follow-up would've been "Bernie Fine was short and never played; seems weird you'd have let him fill a staff position for so many decades."
 
Basketball is not rocket science. Please stop acting like there are secret algorithms that only the old and experienced have access to. I am so tired of this crap. First Bilas didn’t know what he was talking about and now this reporter. Seriously man take a chill pill already. There is no way that this sort of behavior should be tolerated by any institution of higher learning. It would be nice if the University would step up and publicly condemn this behavior. Be better. Take the high road.
