Frank Howard’s career with the Syracuse basketball program is possibly over, and that upsets me to no end. Orange Nation received shocking news on Wednesday evening, only about 24 hours before SU’s initial NCAA Tournament affair against Baylor, that the senior point guard will not suit up in the Big Dance “for an indefinite period of time due to a violation of athletic department policy,” according to reports from Syracuse.com and other media outlets.
First and foremost, until more information is released, it’s important not to rush to judgment about what infraction Howard may have committed.
