bills44 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Boeheim will retire to avoid the fallout right? I'm hearing rumblings about eligibility issues (think Fab Melo). I do think that if the NCAA slaps SU with any recruiting/post-season sanctions, Boeheim will retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you read the ridiculous, and completely baseless Deadspin article written by an OCC student, or do you have something more substantial? I'm not chiding you Bills44, because you're usually pretty spot-on with your predictions, but just curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not chiding you Bills44, because you're usually pretty spot-on with your predictions, but just curious... To be fair, deadspin ignored the article until Syracuse themselves tweeted it. Then they reported that Syracuse themselves were tweeting boeheim was gone.. And this sounds different though possibly related - not based on the occ guy. Frankly I have been getting stronger and stronger senses that this is the end pretty soon regardless of what's brewing but that there is something brewing nonetheless Edited March 15, 2013 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly I have been getting stronger and stronger senses that this is the end pretty soon regardless of what's brewing but that there is something brewing nonetheless I have hear rumors that more "academic" violations were uncovered (by SU) during the James Southerland investigation (involving former players)....Syracuse University pretty much just waiting for the NCAA to step in a kick some a$$. My source is pretty credible, but has been inaccurate before. That's why I asked Bills44 to elaborate. Hope it doesn't happen prior to the NCAA's.

I'm not chiding you Bills44, because you're usually pretty spot-on with your predictions, but just curious... No, nothing to do with the deadspin article at all. Something a friend who's at the BET texted me today about the eligibility of 2 players. This guy's "tips" have been spot on (he told me about the FIne story hours before the media reported it), FWIW. Also, and this is really bad news IMO, but the rumor is that Hopkins is heading west. I don't know if he's destined to be a great coach, but he is a great recruiter.

I haven't heard anything concrete about former players being implicated, but the rumor is that 2 players will be ruled ineligible for the NCAAs sometime before next Thursday.

The Poojer Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Your info has been good recently...but I thought Floyd was gonna take the USC job or is there another one? San Diego State perhaps? If boeheim knows about NCAA violations unearthed wouldn't he sit the offenders? Any more specifics u can leak to us? Sorry San Jose St. just fired their coach...that's way north Same here. Edited March 15, 2013 by The Poojer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is on Southerland and MCW. Imagine how screwed we'd be without those two guys in the tourney. As long as it's just academic-type stuff, then the school will avoid major sanctions (I think). Kinda sad that we've had to deal with this crap for a few years in a row now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is its becoming a consistent issue. Eventually they will hammer you. Depending on the nature this could be that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the nature this could be that time Might be right. Frankly, I have no problem if there are legitimate violations that happened, and this is becoming a problem that can be deterred through sanctions. I complain about the NCAA all the time, but there is no excuse for these major programs to not get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 Watching this game I am leaning towards these rumors not being true. If they are true I am sure the players would know. Something like that would HAVE to be a tremendous burden to carry. Their body language just doesn't indicate this is a team threatened with pending suspension( s). But again maybe I am over thinking this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
