Eddie has not panned out, or at least not yet. My concerns stemmed from the only time I saw him last year, in the PAC12 Championship game when the Oregon big man ate him for lunch. When I posted that, others pointed out that he had a good NCAA tourney.

But as far as I can see, nothing has changed for him. Our loss.

That's not what this is about, though. DC isn't talking about the "legacy of 44"; he is talking about "the legacy of DC in DC's mind." There IS no legacy of 44 or any other number in SU hoops. We honor names, like "the legend of Pearl" or "the legend of Melo", etc.

We don't even have the legacy of 44 in football, because it doesn't exist anymore. Young fans, if they even care, can read about it in the history books, like the War of 1812. It is no longer relevant, and SU is to blame for that.

Also, DC isn't some random, anonymous internet poster ripping one of our players. He is an SU hoops legend and needs to act with some sort of dignity in matters like this. Bitch about a player to your friends, but act with class publicly.

So this is about the Legacy of DC, not 44, and it is DC who is watering his legacy down through actions like this that no other true SU hoops legend would lower themselves to do.
