Really a shame, hope he recovers well.

If Boeheim is able to convince Greene to stick around next year, that's gonna be one great team, with the return of Devo and Rautins.

At least we don't have to worry about Josh Wright turning the ball over anymore.

They ALL have to come back. If they do, we should have a Final Four team again.

Jake Presutti is also a scholarship guard, don't forget that.

This is horrible news.
Wright needs to step up and show some maturity.
This could be a great opportunity for him to redeem himself.

No one wants to see a player hurt or a season lost, but let's face it - this is already shaping up as a rebuilding year with guarded prospects for big time results. If this unfortunate injury extends Devendorf's playing career at Syracuse and helps provide quality and depth to next year's squad, we can accept a mediocre finish for the current team.

Really horrible news. I bet Wright is kicking himself for quitting now as he would see more playing time than he ever has with Deve out. What a way for a senior "leader" to let down their team.

definition for jonah - any person or thing regarded as bringing bad luck.

Daryl Gross is a jonah.

This is when Boeheim shows what he's made of and why he gets the big bucks. We have a bench and a lot of talent.
