Like I said a while back I think somethings brewing with the Bryant,Lyle Huntington prep connection.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

This is insane. He's coming back all the way from NY to come to Hoosier Hysteria!

AND SYRACUSE IS GOING TO BURN! BOHEIM'S A WITCH! BURN HER!

[Banksyrules 4,926]

Does anyone know the name of syracuse's blog site? I want to hear what their fans have to say.  

[BGleas 7,917]

Definitely huge news! I'd assume he's coming from Huntington, which is in West Virginia. 

This is insane. He's coming back all the way from NY to come to Hoosier Hysteria!

From ESPN this morning:

 

 

Syracuse University's men's basketball and football programs are under NCAA investigation for allegations, including providing extra benefits and academic issues, that date back at least 10 years, a source said Thursday.

Syracuse will go before the NCAA's Committee on Infractions in Indianapolis on Oct. 30-31, sources said.

The majority of the allegations -- and the most serious -- involve the men's basketball program. Among the allegations facing the men's basketball team are receiving extra benefits and academic issues, a source said. Those allegations go back about 10 years and are as current as the 2013 season, a source said.

"There were things going on consistently (with the men's basketball program) for a long time," a source said.

Jim Boeheim has been Syracuse's head basketball coach since 1976.

Syracuse.com reported part of the basketball investigation focuses on the academic record of Fab Melo, who was suspended in 2012. Also, former teammate James Southerland was suspended briefly for academics in the 2013 season but eventually returned to the team.

Syracuse.com also reported Southerland's suspension was the result of an NCAA investigation into the basketball program's academic records.

Too bad this information wasn't revealed last year. Maybe we could have had Malachi Richardson. He seemed to feel very comfortable in Bloomington on his IU official. Hopefully it will help with TB.

[CampHoosier 3,697]

Make no mistake, him coming back is HUGE. Mom definitely wants to know her child will be taken care of. Crean can definitely sell our family style within the program. Is it a violation for a recruits mother to talk to family members of current players? If it isn't I would park her right next to Dr. Ferrell

if he's at Huntington prep now its only like a 5 hour drive from Bloomington on I 64

[hoosierpap 14,300]

Thomas Bryant's decision seems to be largely influenced by his mother, Linda Bryant, like Camp Crean said above. It's understandable when your child is going to be over 600 miles away. To me this visit it big either way - but it is even more serious if Mom is attending again. Otherwise, it could be a ride with his buddies (Bridges/Jones) from WV to Bloomington. That's not to diminish his interest in IU - clearly Bryant's interest is very high and I did hear Bryant is doing some recruiting for IU on that Huntington Prep team.

 

If Mom comes, imo, that is more serious. Look out for that, she may be the one who needs the most convincing.
