Syracuse has announced they're conducting an external investigation. I've seen several articles noting this since the Athletic's article came out.
IMHO, it will be difficult for the parents to NOT look into reopening the recruiting for their daughters who have committed verbally.Probably like this
"Can we trust kids who said they would come to Syracuse? Nah
You are so right. So many (here) are confusing the expression "tough love" with what for them were the good old days when with the slightest authority you could say and do whatever you wanted. Certain words and behavours were always abusive and unacceptable except when the powerless were involved.
I can, Detroit Mercy. This year......but. Not sexual accusations, but abuse of players. Baffling to me, after reading the letters the parents wrote to the AD, that she is still coaching.
I was at Gampel years ago. Very frustrated with Svet Geno called a time out. After the time out Svet headed back to the court. Geno grabbed her by the elbow and pulled Svet back to the bench. I felt the crowd surge forward. There was a real danger of a couple thousand babushkas rushng the court and tearing Geno limb from limb. Svet was a big favorite with the babushkas...
Just in Women's basketball alone.
The punch/poke thing was substantiated. From Auriemma's book -
Eric - I am not comparing this Hillsman situation, whatever it is, with Auriemma and my point has nothing to do with the Tennessee bullshit. It has to do with how Auriemma of 30 years ago would fare given the current climate in WCBB.
That person is me and I am not smearing anyone. Apparently you haven't been a fan long enough to recognize the difference between 1990 Geno and 2021 Geno. All I'm saying is that Auriemma would not survive in today's climate. Read his friggen' book.
The number is actually 12 not 11.
Why do you feel this was not an independent investigation? This is a highly credible news source.
Lol, I doubt you've been aware of Geno longer than I have. No, what you said is Geno has had equivalent behavior (e.g. inappropriate kissing, grabbing players' "pelvic areas") at UConn that Quinton is accused of Syracuse. I will say now that you are a willfully being inaccurate (or in the vernacular... are a liar) as that has not happened. If you believe to the contrary, post the supposed events.
They are reporting the allegations, not investigating them. I'm sure that they've verified the allegations, not the actual occurrence.
So that, in your mind is equivalent to kissing players and placing hands on their "pelvic areas"? Because it sure it isn't to me.
I’m curious. Do you have transcripts of every post on the Tenn boards for the last 26 years? How could you possibly make this categorical statement? Not saying you are right or wrong, just puzzled as to how you could possibly be so definite?
Because in my opinion independence doesn't necessarily mean credible. What they reported may be factual, but two things jump out to me. There's no rebuttal nor context so I reserve the right to call it credible. They could have reported I killed someone, but if they don't report that they broke into my home, then while factual...it would be wrong to tag me as some cold blooded murderer, no? I don't know what happened and under what circumstances and I don't feel as if I ever will until I hear the whole story.
Yep, post your email address and I’ll send them to you
That's a huge stretch. But to make your rebuttal more apples to apples, I'm thinking after you killed your 12th person it wouldn't be wrong to tag you as a some cold blooded murderer.
Numbers mean nothing without context and facts, absolutely nothing.
Why even spend so much time going down that path?? Good grief. It was 30 years ago. I would say probably 99% of the population who is over 55 or 60 probably wouldn't "survive" today if did the same things as they did 30 years ago. Frankly, I had no idea. And could have easily gone the rest of my life with out that info.
If only....
