I like him, I think he's a genuine guy.  Watching him at this press conference and they are badgering the guy.

I always liked Syracuse, and think Jim is a good dude.  Leave the guy alone, i'm sure he didn't know anything about this.  He's no Joe Paterno.

Jim Boeheim is a stand up guy in my opinion......

Nobody thought Sandusky was a saint, lots of people knew the dude was doin weird stuff.  They just covered it up.

i just dont buy Jim knew nothing or never had an feeling somethin was amiss with Fine

so Jm never knew about the trips or the rooms with Fine and his lil friends???...hell, Fine's wife knew, caught him redhanded peepin thru windows (and that person is another sad excuse for a woman) and nothing was ever said or talk about secretly or a heads up?!

just like Joe, Jim is/was a legend on his campus...u dont think such a story if ever gotten out would sullen his legacy as it did wit Joe?   its all about self preservation at the expense of kids who couldnt defend themselves

good coach

human being ...im sure the truth will come out

retburj...syracuse is sounding more and more like a "syracuse" town more  then even penn state was a "penn state town".... it seems everyone in that place has a syracuse tie up to the mayor or whatever.  this will get ugly now that the u.s attorney s office is involved. shit will be hitting the fan soon.

Isn't a bit suspicious how how all this child molestation cases come out around the same time?

Hmmm, little fishy to me.

its fishy to you that the guy has a taped conversation with the freakin guys wife from like 8 years ago admitting he molested him? did you know and hear that?  if you did and still have doubts your probably also think O.J is lookin for the real killer

Man it's fishy to me that both these stories come out near the same time.  Seems like distraction so that people can forget about Penn St. and focus on Syracuse.  I'm not saying it's not true, all i'm saying is the media is real good with manipulating the public.

You gotta look at it from different angles man, everything isn't what it always seems is what i'm saying.

Badlands, you do know ESPN had that tape for a while and is just now releasing it right?  So if ESPN had that taped conversation for all that time, why didn't they take it to the authorities back in 2005 or whenever they got this tape.  All this shit is fishy as fuck to me.

It's a bit fishy to me that this dude was still blowing Bernie at age 27/28.....and that tape has no timeline reference on when anything took place. It mentions kid. Was this an 18 yr old kid. There is nothing definitive with this yet

Read up on it dude..  ESPN had that tape a long time ago.  Go do research buddy.  There is a timeline on the tape..  They never took that tape to the police or anything.  More to this story than meets the eye.

i agree with you 100% except as far as sandusky..lol come on bro...100 people are lying for no reason?  and this guy has a taped convo from the guys wife..that made boheim look like a complete douchebag...because he sat there and bashed the kid...then when the tape came out..he was like oh shit...ya school did the right thing .   instead of looking at this as fishy you have to realize there are proabably numerous other stories just like this one and penn state but people are afraid to come foward.  college coaches are starting to look like the catholic church and thats a sad sad thing.  in essence they have it even easier then the catholic church..NO ONE would suspect a manly man coaching sports of this..right?  shit is going to start hitting the fan just like it did with the catholic church last 15 or so years.  when the priest allegations started no one could believe a priest would do this...then one by one the truth came out...just wait

Do you think you could be friends with a guy for 35 years and not know something about him was strange? Ball boys on road trips and he never thought it to be strange. Ignorance does not excuse anyone. Paterno was ultimately ignorant to the situation. This guys wife was ignorant and so was Boeheim in my opinion.

As far as suspicious timing, sometimes it seems people get the courage to come forward when they see others step forward.  If you think this is a cover up to cover a cover up you need to stop watching soaps.

I agree with you...  but like I told skiop.  ESPN had this tape years ago, and never took it to the police.  What's up with that?  If they had this tape, and never did anything with it sent it to the police years ago. I'm just wondering why are they just releasing this now?  If they took it to the police back then, the police would have probably have already arrested this guy.

Something stinks here...

Ha ha...  your watching ESPN, listening to why ESPN didn't release a tape to the police that could show somebody has possibly been molested, lol.

Oh yeah i'm sure they are gonna give you a good reason.  Talk about controlling the media.

Meanwhile questions are growing over why the tape was in ESPN's possession since former team ball boy Mr Davis legally recorded it nearly a decade ago.

The network said it didn't air it until Sunday because it didn't have corroboration. ESPN added that it hired a voice-recognition expert who said the voice on the recording matches Mrs Fine's.

In regards to the tape I heard on ESPN radio that they say they (ESPN) were scared to get sued if the story could not be corroborated.  Scott Van Pelt show.

Actually the police and university investigated this and said statute of limitations ran out.

Anyway, in June 2003, after the Post-Standard closed its investigation, Davis contacted ESPN and repeated his allegations concerning Bernie Fine and sent it the tape of his conversation with Laurie Fine. It isn’t clear who Davis contacted at ESPN—someone at the network, the magazine, the website, or all three. (One assumes that if any one of the three branches knew about it, then all must have.)

Jump to 2005. The university said it conducted its own investigation after being “contacted by an adult male who told us that he had reported to the Syracuse City Police that he had been subjected to inappropriate contact by an associate men’s basketball coach. The alleged activity took place in the 1980's and 1990's. We were informed by the complainant that the Syracuse City Police had declined to pursue the matter because the statute of limitations had expired.

ESPN's Senior Vice President and Director of News discussed his network's reporting on the Bernie Fine allegations on Monday.  Vince Doria was interviewed on ESPN's Front Row blog.

Doria was asked why the alleged phone recording from 2002 of Laurie Fine and Bobby Davis was released 10 days after their initial story on the allegations.

"Part of it was we had no independent video of her and her voice – something we could look at and say, 'Yes, that's her and yes, that appears to be her voice.' This time around when we re-engaged on the story we did in fact have a video we found online of her serving a meal to Bernie and a number of young men who may or may not have been Syracuse players. In this video you could clearly see her and hear her. This allowed us to submit the audio to a voice recognition expert, which we did last week," he said.
