At the end of the game as Boeheim was walking over towards St. Joseph's coach, even on the TV one could see him saying something to one of his players, and one could tell just by the look on Boeheim's face that he was not happy. Poor PR by Boeheim. So is Boeheim being replaced at the end of this season? With this type of behavior, he should be, and the A.D. and Robinson should be right in line behind him.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172047Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:08:38 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172047MikePoor PR by Boeheim? &nbsp;Who cares? &nbsp;He obviously doesn't. &nbsp;Winning is all that matters to Jim and his tough attitude is what makes him such a great coach. &nbsp;And he has a great point, how do you swish the shot when you are trying to miss...http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172058Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:12:33 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172058rickto dioptase,replace boeheim,are you nuts.b'ball would go the way offootball and other sports since gross and cantor came to town.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172064Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:14:49 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172064labatt0Jimmy has proven himself time and time again.

A curious spectacle indeed. I normally don't care about basketball, but here I am irresistably drawn to this story. Therefore i conclude that the outlandish coach has increased the entertainment value of SU basketball, however I don't want him to have a stroke. http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172442Wed, 14 Nov 2007 23:43:33 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172442CJGood coaching? &nbsp;Of course. &nbsp;Bad timing? &nbsp;Probably. &nbsp;Boeheim should have waited until he was done shaking hands with St. Joe's coaches and team. &nbsp;I bet Julie won't let him do that again....http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172468Wed, 14 Nov 2007 23:48:29 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172468BundoUntil you walk in his shoes you shouldn't judge. Jimmy is the greatest entertainment we have in Syracuse. He is passionate about what he does and you can bet that all those players respect him for who he is.We have a great team. By the way he is not the first coach to say a bad word on national tv.

I realize he may get angry during the games but he need to show a little more professionalism especially when he is on national television. &nbsp;I would love to see one of the players give it right back to him if he does it again. &nbsp;Julie, tell your husband to grow up and treat those player with respect.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172557Thu, 15 Nov 2007 00:16:00 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172557jon chpolitically correct= the inability of humans who cant filter reality from fiction; small minds ;no soul; jim is a great man ; lets not get carried away withmindless statements of professionalism, which is interperted as politically correct in a rutheless society. boeheim is a great man; he deserves better scrutiny than reading his lips on camerahttp://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172582Thu, 15 Nov 2007 00:26:08 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172582oldsalltAs long he continues to not pick his nose on TV he is good to go. <br> <br>Thanks Julie.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172587Thu, 15 Nov 2007 00:28:22 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172587Coach TOnce again, the fifth estate trying to create controversy where there isn't. Granted the language used was questionable, but we're talking about an industry here (yes it is) where coaches' jobs depend on the ability of paid players (scholarships, perks) to perform at the optimum level to bring prestige, dollars and honor to the revered institution. Certainly the football program doesn't.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2172973Thu, 15 Nov 2007 02:15:38 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2172973Sandra ChaiBoeheim's outrageous display on national tv was disgraceful. &nbsp;He was, moreover, disrespectful and ungracious towards St. Joe's coach. &nbsp;Each season he seems to single out one player as a scapegoat who bears the burden of his wrath. &nbsp;A person in his position should have better control and provide a good role model for his players. &nbsp;Boeheim's attitude in post-game Q&amp;A is always sneering and obnoxious. <br> <br>Winning is NOT all that matters. &nbsp;Boeheim represents SU and is doing one lousy job of it. &nbsp;Does he think he's indispensable? &nbsp;Get rid of him along with Robinson. &nbsp;http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2173009Thu, 15 Nov 2007 02:27:11 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2173009TomIt was not the right time to say it, but it is over the dam now. As for what Mr. Boeheim's rights are, that is not for Boop Boob Be Doop to decide. For the rest of you nasty name callers who are degrading a great coach behind the cloak of your computer, I say,&quot;Shame on you!&quot; Jim is emotionally charged and passionate about the game. Of course, none of you have ever lost your temper for a moment, unlike normal people who have moments of slippage. If the players don't want the heat from the boss, then they better listen better to the instructions. &nbsp;You can be sure Harris will pay attention next time and be a better player for it. &nbsp;Meanwhile let us worry about more important things like the game Friday. Go Orange. &nbsp;Oh! One more thing. Quit picking on the football team. Coach Robinson certainly was not left a program on the rise. I am not defending him as I wish for more progress also, but the old cliche' , &quot;Rome was not built in a day&quot; should apply. Next year, I may not be as kind. Let us not forget that Mr. Gross started all this and did it in a very nasty way. Enough said. http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2173070Thu, 15 Nov 2007 02:40:28 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2173070KevinFor those of you who think Boeheim should lose his job for his minor outburst, you obviously don't follow college hoops--or any sport for that matter. &nbsp;This is competition people, and with coaching comes discipline. &nbsp;If Harris did not follow his coach's instruction, he deserved it. <br> <br>If what Boeheim did deserved getting fired, then Bobby Knight would have stopped coaching years ago.http://community.9wsyr.com/blogs/su_orange/archive/2007/11/13/2168814.aspx#2173387Thu, 15 Nov 2007 03:47:59 GMT2b415188-a58e-4250-a095-5de4e97ae57a:2173387BillWho cares about this?
