Syracuse Basketball: Boeheim and the Bogus NCAA
Syracuse basketball coach Jim Boeheim’s nine game suspension was upheld, but he will be allowed to begin it immediately.
The announcement was supposed to come prior to December 1st. It didn’t. It was supposed to be reviewed and filed within 90 days. It wasn’t. Ok, so the suspension would surely be reduced as an overreaction by the NCAA, right? Nope.
Jim Boeheim’s nine game suspension was upheld by the NCAA Appeals Committee.
The silver lining however, is that Boeheim may begin the suspension immediately instead of having to wait for ACC play. So instead of having to miss nine ACC games, he will now miss just three, and six out of conference games including Georgetown on Saturday.
