I thought you were just making a cruel joke. Turns out its true. Fricken BRUTAL for the Cuse.

Theyre done! done!

Anyone want to bet on Pot? Academics? Sex with Bernie's wife? Punched another person?

This sucks. Cuse was inevitably going to flame out spectacularly, as usual, and now they have an excuse.

 

[James]

holllllly crap

 

[Ricky1Moore]

wowsas what a disaster

my thoughts, exactly.

Brutal. But I can't pretend to feel bad for them given what everything the NCAA has put us through (some of which was with our own assistance). I'm still nervous that some huge story will break about Boatright right before our first game. Because why wouldn't it.

 

[James]

just heard it on wfan, still like their chances to get to the sweet sixteen and lose

 

[hooskies]

How can you be eligible all season up until the tournament? just wondering.

 

[dogpause]

F* Syracuse. Enjoy the country air!

 

[HuskyBballFan]

Wow. Cuse is so deep that they can withstand losing just about any of their starters.....except Melo.

If Jardine couldn't play, that just means Waiters plays more. If Christmas couldn't play, that just means CJ Fair plays more. Joseph to Southerland is a downgrade, but Southerland is still a scoring threat. But the drop off from Melo to Keita/Christmas is much more significant.

 

[TopDog18]

Hahah that great. Expect anothe choke job by Cuse.

 

[UConnMike04]

Ruled out of the NCAA tournament...nice season 'Cuse. It just ended.

 

[rbny1]

"Eligibility issues" - will they have to forfeit any games they have already played? Now that would be a beautiful goodbye present.

 

[The Funster]

I used to like Cuse fans. Now, I just point and laugh.

 

[superjohn]

This kid is bad news. There is a lot of really bad stuff that's he's been doing and getting away with it. Not surprised at all that this finally caught up with them. Normally I would feel badly but the venom those losers spew towards our program makes me feel no pain for them.

 

[UConnSwag11]

didn't he get arrested this year and was going to get deported or something??

 

[Reno]

They should go to the Sweet 16 with ease either way. They've got a nice easy draw until then.

 

[HooperScooper]

The Big East Gods weren't satisfied with just not letting them win the Big East Tournament. They had to make sure they didn't win the NCAA Tournament also. Don't f&%$ with the Big East!
