Celtics map out their snow day(s)
Fab Melo: "I’m used to snow, so it’s not anything that would bother me. I’m going to work out, go to the gym. I will get there, I live right there. If anything, I’ll go running.

National Signing Day 2013: ACC Team Recruiting Rankings | Atlantic Coast Convos
12. Syracuse Orange (19 commitments, 0 in ESPN300): I won’t write a ton of excuses for the Orange, but when your coach leaves a month before National Signing Day (with seven members of the coaching staff in tow), you’re going to be operating at a disadvantage.

He texted Sonneborn and his mother while still on campus and told them he wanted to commit. Partly because of Syracuse, partly because of McDonald. "He’s like a father figure but he’s our age," Batten said. "He’s just a great guy. He keeps it real. He tells you how it’s going to go down, and he’s not going to lie."
Poliquin: Perhaps the weekend will bring resolution to the James Southerland saga | syracuse.com
I do not have time to get into a long email right now but I have heard that the SU hoops program may be getting the "near death penalty" by the end of this week. Included in this is Boeheim gone, Hopkins gone, 2 years no tourney. Is this possible?

Rumor: Philadelphia Eagles high on Syracuse QB Ryan Nassib - Bleeding Green Nation
Andy Reid's first draft pick as Eagles coach was to draft a quarterback out of Syracuse. He would go on to make 6 Pro Bowls and break most franchise records... Might Chip Kelly do the same?
Former Syracuse football player Jameel McClain featured on 'NFL Characters Unite' | syracuse.com
Former Syracuse football player Jameel McClain, whose Baltimore Ravens just won the Super Bowl, will be featured in a documentary tonight on the USA Network called 'NFL Characters Unite."
