These 'rumors' come around every year. They can't be that dumb to fall for it every time.

Jim Boeheim blasts ex-Indiana coach Tom Crean for Tyler Lydon opinion: 'He's an idiot'

Colonie, N.Y. -- Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim responded bluntly to former Indiana coach Tom Crean's draft night criticism of forward Tyler Lydon.

"He's an idiot," Boeheim said. "He said he's not a good shooter. Freshman, sophomore year he shoots 40 percent from 3. That's pretty good for a young player. I think he had the best shooting statistics at the combine, I think, of all the big guys. He shoots it. That's what he does. It just shows the ignorance and not doing the work, the research, the background check. He's athletic and can do a lot of other things but he can really shoot."

Crean was critical of Lydon after the draft saying, "I don't think he's that good" and questioning Lydon's shooting and whether he could guard NBA players as a stretch-4.

Crean made his comments as part of an NBA Draft livestream with The Vertical, the media platform established by esteemed NBA reporter Adrian Wojanarowski. The draft night broadcast is popular because it runs ahead of the televised broadcast, and the website generally supplies a deep level of analysis, particularly when it comes to finances and transactions. 

In this case, however, Boeheim believes the analysis from Crean was particularly poor.

I kinda agree with Boeheim. That might have to do with the fact that I despise Crean, but one of them is going to be a Hall of fame head coach and the other just got fired..

Ones a basketball coach the other isn't

The University of Louisville will appeal two NCAA sanctions, including the loss of revenue from basketball tournament appearances that interim President Dr. Greg Postel said Wednesday represents millions of dollars.

The board of trustees also unanimously voted to appeal the vacating of victories that could include the 2013 NCAA championship.

Postel said that coach Rick Pitino could appeal his NCAA-ordered suspension from five Atlantic Coast Conference games on his own. 

The NCAA meted out sanctions June 15, citing director of basketball operations Andre McGee's "severe and repugnant" conduct in supplying strippers and prostitutes to recruits and players over four years.

Postel said the university will notify the NCAA by Friday of the two areas of appeal, then have 30 days to set out the basis for it. He declined to share the rationale for the appeal, citing advice of counsel.

Postel previously described the sanctions as excessive and promised be an appeal.

The NCAA penalties include four years of probation, scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions as well as the vacating of as many as 108 regular season games and 15 NCAA tournament wins. The exact number of games will be determined after the university tells the NCAA which wins featured ineligible players.

The board of trustees voted to pursue the appeal after spending nearly two hours in closed session, during which they heard from Athletic Director Tom Jurich.

Earlier in the meeting, the board voted to scrub a presidential search committee that included five citizen representatives and instead appoint the entire board of trustees to oversee the search for a replacement for James Ramsey, who was forced to resign last July.

Board Chairman J. David Grissom told reporters later that he erred in appointing a committee that was "too big and unwieldy." He said he personally notified the outside members — Charles Denny, Alice Houston, Alex Rankin, Eddy Roberts and Steve Trager — that they were being discharged.

Although some faculty members have complained that they are being cut out of the search process, Grissom said they will be consulted and that trustee Enid Trucios-Haynes, who serves on the board as president of the Faculty Senate, also represents their interests.

The meeting was the board's second since a scathing audit found the foundation's officers and directors depleted at least $42 million from the university's endowment and tried to hide lucrative deferred compensation for Ramsey and his top aides.

Grissom previously said the board is considering whether to sue directors and officers for depleting funds, but that was not addressed in the public portion of Thursday's meeting.

The audit report also said the board made bad investments in real estate and startup companies and spent all $17.6 million in an “evergreen fund” — even though spending was supposed to be limited to $5 million — on things that included executive compensation and bowl game trips.

Meeting June 15, the board approved paying  $200,000 more to the firm that produced the audit to answer additional questions raised in its report. The firm, Alvarez & Marsal, already has been paid $1.7 million for the six-month review released June 8.

Boeheim is scum, but he's still far more knowledgeable about basketball than Crean. Then again, you could probably say that about most coaches. Crean doing any kind of analysis on draft night was comical.

Boeheim's problem today? The triangle offense.

Maybe he just needs to get laid. There's a guy in Louisville that can help him with that.

Boeheim seems like the grouchy uncle no one really likes being around.
