Yeah that Emmert guy kept on trying to head butt him but it was good that he had that bat and was able to block it...

UConn fans should boo Emmert whenever and wherever we see him. Loudly, vigorously and continuously.
 
Hey mark, I actually don't hate you. You being the ck boy you are led to increased motivation for our championship. I'm glad you had to swallow your pride and hand over that handsome trophy. What a joke.

And people still don't think there was bias against UCONN in the APR nonsense. It's preposterous.

Just thinking about how many F Mark Emmert threads there have been on the Yard over the past few years gives me a smile.

tcf, while I appreciate the find, I can't, in good conscience, give your post a like. I was about to...then stopped.

I said at the time it was personal - this is just further validation that they do what they want to do - then built the justification.

Emmert: While everyone looked at Syracuse as wow, they hammered syracuse. Under the new rules would have been far worse

They hammered Cuse? Seriously?

What the hell would he call what he did to us?

Let's pretend for a second that the NCAA really hammered Syracuse, is Emmert saying that the penalty could have been worse under their current guidelines? If so, what will his explanation be when his organization doesn't "hammer" UNC? Oh, that's right, we're never going to get a satisfactory explanation about that.

Saying you have these tough penalties and new rules really doesn't matter if you refuse to use them on the "blue bloods."
 
Emmert has to die. If you think UConn fans are alone, think again. Penn State fans hate him almost as much. Given his position of power and obvious abuse of that power, I think this is fair game for a congressional investigation. This involves just about every major US university. It actually is kind of a big deal.
 
This guy absolutely boils my blood. Do want to face smash.

The most infuriating part about this is, of course, our violation was reported before the rules were changed, and then we were still punished under the new rules structure. Meanwhile, Syracuse engages in years of fraud and cover-ups, and when they're finally caught, they basically get amnesty.

Clearly he is setting the stage to let UNC off without any postseason ban and probably no punishment at all. Honestly, it is time to stage a major protest at the final four. We can join with Penn State fans and fans of any other teams that might want to join in (Louisville, SMU and so on). We have a year to organize it and I know people in the Penn State alumni association that I can contact. We need to shine a light on the cockroach and ESPN. And, just in case UNC doesn't make it all the way to the final four again next year, we can even extend the protests to the first round games at whatever location they are assigned to. Then we can do it again for the second weekend, if they get that far. If people really care about college sports, they need to do something to retain the integrity of the game.

I think he's already hedged that by his treatment of Cuse. He said that, because the violations occurred years ago, they should be treated under the old system. Same thing will have with UNC. BS.

Little over the top. A strong firing would do the trick.

Ironic because if SMU and Louisville are in the tournament this year Syracuse is out. I guess the lesson here is that if you know you have a violation, wait until you have a down year then self report it and declare yourself ineligible for the NCAA tournament that you weren't going to make anyway.

When you're a 10 seed, you're not out if 2 other teams are added to the tournament.
 
The NCAA Tourney ended for me at the final whistle of our Kansas game. But even if I was tempted, maybe by the wills of a second glass of scotch, for a split second, to tune in and watch this weekend, this Emmert press conference just sealed the 'no way' deal. UNC vs Syracuse? I'd rather root for Charlie Mans0n to be granted a work release from prison to give Hollywood tours than root for either of these dirty programs to get to the Final. And this whole "the current players had nothing to do with it" BS line just reinforces my hatred of Emmert, the NCAA and every athletic program who has gotten off MUCH lighter than what we got slapped with for applying a new rule retroactively to before it was even a rule (and has since been proven to be an absolute joke, see: Oklahoma St football program).

F Emmert. F the NCAA. F the Fruit. F UNCheat. Go punt.

See you all at the Spring Game - April 16.
