Well we made the front page of ESPN at least

Your in denial or completely naive if you can't see what the "elite" teams employ as their SOP. The press their was probably told to run that story to get Tubby out.

Except tubby wasn't the coach. That isn't how it works.

Jb has not forgotten what the local media has done to him and his program. Bigtime college programs and coaches dont get treated like this in other towns kentucky basketball alabama football etc.

Calhoun dealt with this stuff.

First, JB did it to himself by playing fast and loose with the rules. But second, maybe they wouldn't have gone so hard at him if he didn't treat them the way he did? He is his own worst enemy.

Jb has a right to give it back to them. I personally enjoy it because I hate the media.

We have been put on probation twice. Did you enjoy that? What medium do you hate? The newspapers? The tv networks? Magazines? Talk radio? You see the media is comprised of a lot of different types. Do you hate them all? How do you get information? Judging by everything you post, I believe you do hate the media and get your information from Glenn Beck and infowars.

Trump won the popular vote by 10 million as well.

If you think journalists work like this you are naive. They aren’t the best reporters.

Journalists...hahahahaha.

Journalists...hahahahaha.

Takes like this are my legitimate frustration with certain media is ignored.

But fanboys like you have to live in echo chambers because you can’t deal with any difference of opinions.

Jim Boeheim is his own worst enemy. The guy goes out of his way to take shots at people don’t be surprised when it comes back at him.

It’s sad you don’t get this.

It's sad that you and others here would side with anyone who attacks Boeheim to accomplish your agenda.

Hold on here .. nobody is saying coach needs to agree with the criticism the guy was levying .. had Boeheim simply said I don’t think he knows what’s he’s talking about ... or the dude was wrong .. I wouldn’t care even a little bit ..the fact that he said the opinion is garbage because the guy is short and didn’t play at a high level is where it gets stupid for me .. and this wasn’t an off the cuff comment in the heat of the moment .. this was planned and thought of ahead of time

Way to be obtuse. I defend JB when he isn’t in the wrong IMO.

I defend him from the take what he said was about gender, I defend Jb when someone compares him to Bob Knight, I defend trash clowns who attsck him for the tragedy that happened years ago, I defend JB when the NCAA turns 3 misdemeanors into a capital punishment case.

You are the person who is bending the knee to a person no matter if they are in the right or wrong.

You constantly hit me with this line about making suppositions not supported by data and that's exactly what Guttierez threw out and you back him all the way.

tly hit me with this line about making suppositions not supported by data and that's exactly what Guttierez threw out and you back him all the way.

Why don’t get that Jb had a right to rip Matt Guttierez and I have said that.

What he did taking a shot at the man’s height was a bleeping joke.
It’s unbecoming for a HC at any school to say that.
It’s so rude and JB admitted it yesterday.

He says stuff like that and loses news cycles when he did it to himself for no reason.
Our win was overshadowed because the HC said something rude for no reason.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

JB was featured on highly questionable for this .. and of course they showed him picking a booger and eating it .. big L

Personally i think this is much ado about nothing, but it is another self-inflicted wound that didn’t need to happen.
But what do I know...since I’m biased because of my “agenda” against our loose-lipped HC. SMDH

I wouldn't be so biased for him if I didn't see what the NCAA did to him and the Syracuse program.

 

[IthacaMatt]

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

I think Wildhack needs to tell him that his next year is his last, and to tone down his comments to the press. And Wildhack needs to start the search this summer after the season is over.

 

[IthacaMatt]

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

And it also provides a window into how their kids will be treated by the head coach if they come here.

 

[IthacaMatt]

I think JB may be leading the pack in the softy department right now. He can't take a question or any semblance of a crtique.

I didn't understand why he made a point of going after Jay Bilas - probably his biggest fan in the national sports media - a second time after that game for the comment about the Duke kid.

Let it go, old man. That guy is one of your allies.

I'm with you and this faux outrage is typical these days. Oh my gosh he called someone 5'2.. What a complete and total jerk.

 

[IthacaMatt]

I thought it was funny but what do I know.

It would have been a lot funnier if it wasn't said in anger.

 

[NineOneSeven]

As has been stated... you are missing it. It was not just saying that.

Do you really think calling someone 5'2" is what people are complaining about?

 

[IthacaMatt]

Do you really think calling someone 5'2" is what people are complaining about?

It's the hook you hang the story on.

Of course his overall demeanor, usually reserved for the local press, spilled over into a national story.

Him insulting short guys, saying you can't know anything about basketball because you're short, is a truly stupid thing to say. I mean, really idiotic.

Jerry Tarkanian. Bob Cousy. Lou Carnesecca. Jeff Van Gundy. Rollie Massimino.

How many more great coaches who were short can you think of?

Just stop it.

 

[DoctorBombay]

I wouldn't be so biased for him if I didn't see what the NCAA did to him and the Syracuse program.

Fair enough. But you don’t turn that on fellow SU fans as well, & suggest that our very valid criticisms about his coaching are somehow related to what those ncaa goobers did to us.
I’m a big JB fan- always have been, always will be. But nobody’s been picking on him for the hell of it, or because of some mythical agenda. He’s not above reproach.
