So Syracuse retired Roosevelt Bouie's jersey....

[7774]

And gave him a framed jersey with the name 'Bowie' on the back during the halftime ceremony. I guess choking when March nears extends beyond just the basketball team. Good job, good effort athletic department!

With all their experience putting stuff on shirts...

I saw another close up picture and it's spelled incorrectly on the little name plate at the bottom as well. The athletic department might literally not know this guy's name.

That's beyond embarrassing. This needs to be on ESPN - only problem is half the employees probably went to Cuse.

I guess Bayheim had no time to proof read...or hell...even was excited to see it ahead of time?

This is a common fallacy and just simply isn't true.

Just a "WTF?"

SU AD had to do something so that people would forget about the statue of Ernie Davis wearing Nike cleats.

The Syracuse fans on their message boards are doing a good job of self-deprecation and roiling the AD.

Not a whole lot of pivot points to try and spin it in a positive way.

No way. They didn't go to Cuse. They can spell.
