Fab Melo Out Of NCAA Tournament

[Inyatkin]

UNC-Asheville? They're not bad, you know ...

Hit a couple threes early, Cuse is all distracted ...

 

[upstater]

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

Because someone from the Boneyard waited until yesterday to call the NCAA with super-fabulous-proof that they bought Melo a $1 ticket on Megabus!

 

[aceboon]

So I guess them withholding this until now was the equivalent of them saying Onauku(sp) was "day to day" with his knee injury when they knew he had no chance of playing to protect their #1 seed.

 

[Denham Brown]

hahahaha

 

[The Funster]

Boeheim will deny all knowledge of the specifics, of course.

 

[Walker11]

The mojo is already working...

How awesome would it be...

Having said that, there's no chance. But it would be sweet.

 

[hooskies]

the rumor is that he failed...wait for it...Spanish.

 

[Huskies320]

Kansas State is going to OBLITERATE them on the boards. Now if they can only hit a few shots....

 

[Huskies320]

the rumor is that he failed...wait for it...Spanish.

LOL seriously? At least it wasn't Portuguese

 

[Reno]

He's Brazilian. They speak Portuguese.

 

[Reno]

I don't think this changes their outlook THAT much. He contributes little on offense and they'll still run the 2-3 just a slightly weaker version of it.

 

[mets1090]

He's Brazilian. They speak Portuguese.

Doesn't chance the fact that you have to be a moron to fail a language class. Especially if you are bilingual.

 

[UCHuskies08]

Couldn't happen to a nicer group of guys

 

[hooskies]

He's Brazilian. They speak Portuguese.

I'm aware...The languages aren't really that different.

 

[specialisthusky]

Atleast I know in enough advance to change my bracket from them losing in the Sweet 16 to the Round of 32

 

[caw]

Melo's career:

Freshman year: be fat
Summer Workout: punch woman's car
Sophomore year: fail Spanish

The thing is they pulled him out of the ND game they lost because of academic concerns, now he is ineligible again? How did he become eligible in the interim. Was it because Jimmy B decided they couldn't win enough games without him? This is the same coach who is now accused of playing ineligible pot smokers.

Just saying.

Let's see Syracuse make a t-shirt out of this! "NCAA Tournament 2K12 - Kicked in the nads right before the Big Dance"

 

[ZenConn]

Time to forfeit the games Melo played in and reseed the tournament

 

[Deepster]

The mojo is already working...

Yes, it is, my son. Yes, it is.

Jump on board, buckle your seat belt and enjoy the ride.

 

[HuskyBballFan]

Where is this "failed Spanish" stuff coming from?

 

[FluxTZ]

Glad I didn't submit my brackets yet....

 

[Brochacho]

Mojo is lol'ing at Cuse.

During the BET Cuse fans were hoping to beat us to "derail their silly mojo thing".

Mojo 1, Cuse 0.

 

[Druken Friar]

That ended fast. No Syracuse in the Final Four now.

 

[Dann]

isnt melo from brazil?
