Official Syracuse Unintended Hilarity Thread

[Kolumbo]

Same here. You seem to think SU is garbage for cutting him loose, which is sentimentality, imo. I think if the team is lousy for several years, it’s time to move on, regardless of how long the coach has been there.

Do you even read what I type? I tried to keep it as simple as possible for you. SU was negligent for not cutting him loose when it should have. Not once did I remotely insinuate SU was wrong to fire him. SU was classless for the way it handled their local legend. You seem to be blaming JB for SU's negligence and stupidity and then saying SU has every right to treat him like sheet because of it. The dude was at Syracuse for almost 60 years all in!! OK, enough already.

Has someone clued them into the fact that Kevin Ollie won a National title?

The difference is that Autry isn't getting a bunch of good players developed by a coach like Calhoun. Syracuse is getting the post-Calhoun players version of Kevin Ollie.

Whatever your view on Boeheim, Syracuse is complete garbage. What an awful way to kick your coach of 47 years out the door.

That’s what you typed. Period. “What an awful way, blah, blah blah” You speak with a forked tongue, sir. But bless you, I wish you well, Namaste.

Regardless of how Boehiem was released from his coaching duties this week, he was Head Coach for 47 years. He was assistant coach before that and played in the program for four years while attended the school. There was a 3 year period between graduation and being named an assistant where he played pro ball, but all in he's been associated with the institution for all or parts of 61 years, with a direct association for 58 of those years. "...almost 60 years all in" is quite accurate.

Be that as it may, there are times to get worked up over a technicality. This really isn't one of them.

@Kolumbo should be wishing you, "Namaste."

I'm not worked up at all, just having a discussion, thank you for sharing.

Man I just came here to post this.

Axe is a Bills/Cuse/Radio guy and is pretty well respected and ingrained in the Cuse community.

This is hilarious and classic Boeheim pettiness and loserdom.

 

[7774]

Well, that's pathetic. Guess this guy should have stuck to stories about how Boeheim got 11 holes in one in a single round of golf.

 

[Husky25]

For his sake, Levine better hope he has dotted all of his legal lowercase js and crossed his legitimate Ts, because this could be grounds for wrongful termination.

Opinionated opinionator fired over opinion.

It appears that UConn does not suck nearly as much as most of us had hoped.

Not really true. At the final post-game press conference Boeheim basically wouldn't answer what the future would hold. He wouldn't say he wanted to keep coaching and he said he already "gave his retirement speech" earlier in the week. He kept saying "It's up to the University". He continued to run out the clock and be non-committal to the very last second. However little class was involved the blame belongs equally to both Boeheim and the University. Only caveat is, the University doesn't really get the opportunity to give their side of tihngs in public, whereas Boeheim had that opportunity every single day. Seems pretty clear that Boeheim forced SU into the situation they were in and left them little if any other options

The bitterness is palpable. And I’m drinking it all in. I’ve never seen a fan base so angry at another team, its coach and fan base - who aren’t even in their conference. Delicious.

Hey of course Finger Lakes State has a chip on their plucky shoulder now

Those fans are such massive losers lmao

 

[jostar1]

Let’s try this again.

UConn‘s going to win the whole thing.

If that azzhat Danny Hurley hoists the trophy over his head, we're ready for nuclear armageddon, full on asteroid hit, Yellowstone caldera eruption, etc.

The human race will have failed and it will be time for a reset.

Good lord that thread title. The irony is hitting me like a metal bat.

Also, you’d think Hurley murdered somebody the way they talk about him on that board. Why the particular disdain for him?

I can kind of understand Kingtide feeling that way

We passed them, we lapped them, we lapped them again and we're working on lapping them one more time. Our near term goals are to be in position to make a deep tournament run every year. Their near term goals are to crack the top ten in the ACC.

They surely are testing the fates by talking ish about UConn from their current position. I like our chances even more for tomorrow now.

We really need to schedule SU every year at MSG the last Saturday in January.

[uconngb]

Two Sweet 16s since 2017 to our one win since 2016. Holy data mining……..yes, that clearly makes you the superior program.

Hard to believe an entire fan base can be that dumb but then again, Syracuse never disappoints.
