By John Clayton
ROSEMONT, Ill. - The tension was such that Jim Boeheim almost fell over the scorer's table.

ROSEMONT, Ill. - As the final minutes of the first half faded, the frustration spread among the home faithful here in Allstate Arena.

That proved false for at least one night Wednesday. Syracuse left DePaul with a win despite Flynn and Greene netting a combined 20 points on 7-for-26 shooting, including 1-for-11 from 3-point range.

Antonio "Scoop" Jardine allowed his cousin to purchase more than $100 worth of food and drinks on a stolen Syracuse student identification card, according to court documents.

By Matt Ehalt
The nickname "Swat" perfectly described Jarvis Varnado during his days at Haywood High School in Tennessee. The current sophomore at Mississippi State was often taller than his opponents, as he blocked 13 shots in a game as a senior and 15 shots once as a sophomore.
