The sportscenter bit on this that I saw this morning played a bunch of the phone tapes.  It's ugly.

Boeheim's actions in the past probably won't get him fired, but his recent comments might.

Boeheim defended Fine and called Fine's accuser a liar.  Boeheim "did not do enough" is the new "Paterno standard."  Now we may have a third accuser (link below).  Fine looks more and more like Sandusky every day.

If all of this is true and as it is portrayed in these stories, Boeheim is gone in a matter of days.  Fine is going to jail.

First, the alleged vicitim contacted the police, was informed the statute of limitations expired.
Second, Syracuse was informed of the police investigation and launched there own investigation anyway.

The police investigation was bogus.  The Syracuse police chief was Dennis Duvall, a hall of fame Syracuse Basketball player.

http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/7248184/syracuse-police-investigating-bernie-fine-molesting-boy-1980s

At the time, the Syracuse police chief was Dennis Duval, a former Syracuse basketball player. Duval, who retired in 2004, could not be reached for comment. He played at Syracuse from 1971 to 1974 and started with the Syracuse Police Department in 1978. Boeheim became the head coach at Syracuse in 1976, but began as a graduate assistant in 1969.

I think he's gone. Not necessarily because of what he did or didn't do (except if some of the things about the boys being in Fine's hotel rooms are true - that would likely be a fireable offense).  The main reason I think he's gone is from a PR standpoint. You can't call molestation victims moneygrubbing liars and remain the most public figure in a major university. He had a chance to say "no comment," didn't do it, and for that you pay.

+1  

Boeheim's comment suggest he doesn't care about molestation so he'll be gone soon.

Forgot about some of his comments and that the boys were in hotel rooms. Then yes, I think he will probably be gone before the season is done due to the speed at which some of this stuff is coming out.

Darren Rovell, CNBC's Sports reporter has been tweeting about Boeheim this morning ...

As I said before, Jim Boeheim's bold reaction will get him fired if Bernie Fine allegations are true. Cuse has no choice.

2 Hours Ago
Even if he didn't know about Fine, Boeheim dug himself deep by calling the alleged victims extortion artists.

13 minutes ago
Cuse fans don't understand that Boeheim didn't have to know anything in order to fire him. His response alone could be grounds.
