Incredible scene plays out on ESPN. Bills WR Stefon Diggs walking towards the UC Medical Center to go try to see Damar Hamlin. ESPN reporter

explains Diggs was initially stopped by a cop, who let him go in after he explained who he was. Harvey had to vouch for Diggs

in a postgame interview that what Garrett did is "inexcuseable," 3 times, and acknowledged a big suspension is coming.

@Cuse_MBB
announces that Gerry McNamara has been promoted to men’s basketball associate head coach. Adrian Autry held the same position under Jim Boeheim. I HAVE MANY POSITIVE FEELINGS ABOUT THIS.
Joe Buck is a machine. From the World Series in Boston to Thursday Night Football in Houston back to the World Series in L.A. after. I don’t think most realize the insane amount of prep that goes into these big broadcasts. It’s a short list of people that can pull it off.
Friends, I’ve just been informed my time with
@ESPNSyracuse
and Galaxy Media is over. It’s been a great run. I thank you for taking the time to listen. Not sure what’s next in the audio space but I’ll still be over at
@syracusedotcom
. Stay tuned.
Hello friends. I can't even begin to express my gratitude for all the messages of support today. I'm overwhelmed and it means more than I can say. Sorry we won't be "On the Air!!!" but many adventures ahead. Onward.
I'm sorry, but who had the bad attitude here? You had a player not show up for a game. The media was told you would discuss it in postgame. You didn't bring it up in your opening statement, so you were asked a question about it and snarked it up. A tired act.
This is the game in the Patriots NFL Films video where the music turns glum, everything is in slow motion and the voiceover says “New England’s game at Miami was the slice of humble pie the Patriots needed and set the path for their March to Minneapolis and Super Bowl ...”
Folks, it has happened. Jim Boeheim is no longer the head basketball coach at Syracuse University after 47 years. SU has confirmed Adrian Autry has been named the new head coach.
A major score for

and Adrian Autry in the portal. Former

Yes I saw what the unnamed stooge tweeted. I’d rather focus on the job true pros like Scott Van Pelt, Booger McFarland, Ryan Clark, Suzy Kolber, Lisa Salters, Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and others have done and are doing in a remarkably tough spot right now.
Regardless, there are many people with many valid opinions on this issue. Steve Kerr is not one of them. He’s a complete hypocrite. Maybe now he’d like to rescind his past support for defunding & removing police from schools. But the fact no media asked him is shameful cowardice.
All things considered, if I offered you a Sweet 16 run the day after the Georgia Tech loss everyone would take that. The fact Syracuse even had a season with the COVID pauses, etc. let alone making the Sweet 16, was an accomplishment. Now let's see what the offseason brings.
Syracuse-Georgetown was one of the greatest rivalries ever for many reasons, but Jim Boeheim vs. John Thompson was the heart of it. The rivalry was born when Thompson said those six infamous words "Manley Field House is officially closed." A college hoops legend. RIP, Big John.
This sets up a heck of a rematch. There will be over 35,000 people in the Carrier Dome for Syracuse-Duke on February 23. Stone cold lock that be will be a College Gameday weekend and 8p game now.
The
#Bills
are scheduled to fly home tonight but I’d imagine many more of Diggs’ teammates are going to stay in Cincinnati and want to be with their teammate.
Hello friends. Wanted to let you know that I have joined the list of those that have tested positive for COVID-19. I went into quarantine last Monday after a suspected exposure and got test results back confirming a positive. Doing OK at this point. Just some mild symptoms
The inevitable bad takes about court storming (and I used to have it) are out there. They're all coming from SU fans that have banked memories of big wins. For these kids, it's their moment. It may not be as big as the one you had back in the day, but let them enjoy THEIR moment.
44 winning seasons in a row for Boeheim. 50 for the school. That's worth noting, Jeff. Because you know how many schools have done that? Syracuse. That's the list.
Syracuse is finalizing a deal to make Fran Brown its next head football coach, according to two sources with knowledge of the agreement. A formal announcement could come as soon as Tuesday.
The cheering was a show of support for a beloved figure and family they know is hurting. The CNY community has also rallied strong around the family of the victim of what authorities have deemed a tragic accident and nothing more. Also, Jim coached it. Not played in it.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a decision. The winner and STILLLLLLLL UNDEFEATED HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!!! THE ONONDAGA LAKE PARKWAY BRRRRRRRIDGE!!!! 🏆 Photo-Paul Davie
Syracuse will play San Diego State at 9:40 p.m. on Friday Night. Game is at the historic Hinkle Fieldhouse and will air on CBS. Jim Nantz, Bill Raftery, Grant Hill on the call.
Congrats, Jim Phillips. You've got an entire fan base that is convinced your officials are biased against Syracuse and there's really nothing I can or will say to convince them otherwise. If they aren't biased, they are incompetent. So well done there, pal.

The hits just keep on coming.Diggs is a 4-star transfer and Top 26 player overall in portal. 2-year starter at Texas A&M. 36 tackles, 4 sacks this year. From Camden N.J. Home of Fran Brown and DC Elijah Robinson (who coached Diggs at A&M). His brother Fatim also committed to SU
Thrilled for my guy,
@MikeWatersSYR
! He's kind of a big deal. Only once, in 1970, has this award ever gone to someone from outside New York City. Until this year.
Texas A&M transfer EDGE Fadil Diggs (
@fadil_diggs
) is visiting Alabama and Syracuse this weekend,
@BrianDohn247
reports.
The 6-5 240 EDGE had 36 tackles, 11.0 TFLs, and 4.0 sacks this season🔥
Welp. That one stings for SU. White made a huge difference for the
@CuseFootball
defense in the past few years. Some were hoping he’d be the next head coach here. Big, big hire for Matt Rhule.
Sources: Nebraska is hiring Syracuse DC Tony White as the school’s next defensive coordinator. He runs a 3-3-5 defense and has emerged as one of the top ACC coordinators.

defeat the
@Patriots
47-17 and advance to the
#NFL
divisional round. The
#Bills
scored 7 touchdowns on its first 7 possessions, did not punt, kick a field goal or turn the ball over. I am pleased with their performance.
Judah was certainly free to do what was best for him, but man Syracuse needed this. The roster has a lot of potential, but it also has a lot of new faces. What it needs is a rock. A center. A sure thing. Judah is that guy. He'll be a first-team All-ACC performer.
Was just texting with a buddy of mine who drove to Bills Stadium from Syracuse, got a COVID test which took less than 5 minutes, and is now on the way back to Syracuse. Had to get tested at the stadium to go to the playoff game. The passion of
#BillsMafia
knows no bounds.
I am once again telling the ACC Network that instead of remote announcers you have many qualified future broadcast superstars from
@NewhouseSU
that can call the game court side.
Joe Girard was a polarizing figure among
#Cuse
fans and I never understood it. Kid busted his ass, put up a ton of points did what he was asked and helped SU win a lot of games. A lot of these dopes celebrating this would also be the first to rip Syracuse if they never landed him
It's over in Cameron. Syracuse defeats No.1 Duke 95-91. Tyus Battle with 32 points. Chukwu with 18 rebounds. SU loses to Georgia Tech 73-59 on Saturday, beats Duke on Big Monday. You gotta love sports.
ANOTHER. ONE. KingJoseph Edwards, a four-star edge from Georgia, has verbally commited to
#Cuse
. Edwards (6-foot-4, 230) is one of the Top 350 players in the country, according to 247Sports’ Composite Rankings. He’s No. 28 at his position and No. 39 in the state of Georgia.
No matter where you stand on the Buddy Boeheim suspension, I certainly would agree with anyone that thinks the
#ACC
has to explain this one. It's a rare move by them to punish something refs didn't call. Not for lack of effort. The ACC declined to make a representative available.
By the way, as suspected, the ACC Network announcers are not on site. I mean, come on. Why have a network whose primary function is to carry games if you are going to shortchange the play-by-play. Put a couple Newhouse kids in the booth if need be. Plenty of qualified candidates.
Colorado transfer center Eddie Lampkin Jr. is scheduled to visit Syracuse today, a source confirms. Lampkin, who is 6-11, 275 pounds, averaged 10.6 points, 7.0 rebounds and 2.2 assists last year. Had two great NCAA tournament games for the Buffs as well.
Since QB starts were first tracked in 1950, only one NFL starting QB has completed 80% of his passes, rushed for 70+ yards, committed no turnovers and taken no sacks in a game. That man?
It's hard to understate how big of a deal this is. Syracuse has been playing lacrosse since 1916 and has had four coaches. FOUR. Laurie Cox 1916–1930, Roy Simmons Sr. 1931–1970, Roy Simmons Jr. 1971–1998 and Desko 1998-2021. Now one of the greatest players in history steps in.
FWIW. Adrian Autry gets to 18 wins in his first year as SU head coach. Jim Boeheim didn't win more than 18 games in his last four seasons as head coach at SU.
