Got to love/hate early entries sending a team from Final Four contender to NIT.

A man's word doesn't mean anything now...check his quote from a while ago about him for sure returning to Syracuse.. absolutely ridiculous.

Then there is this fiasco with Harris.  Apparently he was surprised that he declared for the NBA Draft.

Stay classy 'Cuse.

Thanks for the link, Reinko.  That story was unbelievable.  Fiasco is an understatement.  The whole thing is just so unprofessional... Harris just disappearing from school the day after the last game, the university just releasing statements without talking to their student-athlete.  Debacle.

I also love Harris' line... "It's already out there so I might as well," Harris said.  Yeah, that shows a lot of commitment to the NBA scouts.  I guess I'll try for the NBA because no one wants me at the 'Cuse.  Ridiculous.  They really have some bad apples at Syracuse.  I wasn't a big Boeheim fan before, but this just shows his program is a basketball factory... not even a hint of education.

It was Boeheim who encouraged Flynn to go pro this year.  Kinda hard to argue against your own coach.

Flynn has all the tools necessary to go pro and there must be some reasonable amount of certainty that he will be a lottery pick and if that is the case then there is a lot of reasons for him to go pro.

Yeah, if he hires an agent he is locked into going to the NBA. 

But thanks anyway.

It's not like he's getting an education at Syracuse anyway. He probably only has about four to six credits by now.

Today Boeheim is quoted as saying Flynn won't be hiring an agent.  I don't think Flynn's status is slipping!

Harris is to blame here. he told the coach he was probalbly not coming bak. he leaves schools and does not return the coaches call for two weeks. What is Boeheim suppose to think?
