I dont find anything wrong with what he said. He said what he thought, but didnt come across as being an *******.
He complimented Ennis a lot, said he had great skill, but not an NBA ready body. That's not really a bad thing, the kid is 18/19, not many people have NBA ready bodies at that point.
I'm not seeing what the author and OP are so upset. Boeheim is an A-hole, but not because of this.
I can't take that article seriously. No professionalism at all. Also, would have been nice if they mentioned what he said.
why does he need to tear down a player just because he is leaving, if he was staying, he would be glowing with praise, he leaves and he is a ****** player and wont amount to anything
He never said that. He said he was a great player that maybe isnt physically ready for the NBA. He also said his success may depend on which team he gets drafted by, which isnt a bad thing. Individual success for most players depends on which team they get drafted by.
That interview was pretty tame. All he said was he thinks that Ennis could be more physically ready for the NBA. Non story.
IMO, all he said was he doesn't have an NBA ready body. I don't think an NBA team is all the sudden going to not pick Ennis because of this "revealing" statement. It's not like he said something like he doesn't have the work ethic or something that could actually mean something coming from him.
It's a statement of opinion that anyone can see. I am sure some scouts agree with him, and some disagree. But his draft stock isn't going to waiver on what Boehiem thinks about his body.

Even if it's the truth, and it probably is, there isn't any reason to say anything negative about him or his game on national tv. It doesn't benefit anyone, it just hurts Ennis for no reason other than Boeheim is likely upset that he's leaving. Just say he was a good player with a promising future or some other BS and move on.
It's like when your wife asks you if those jeans make her *** look fat, you say of course not wether it's the truth or not.

Basically Boeheim said that Ennis has the skill set but could probably use another year to become physically ready for the NBA. Mentioned that Dion Waiter's situation was different as Boeheim thought he was physically ready to go. Boeheim also said that point guard is the hardest position to break into in the NBA.
Apology accepted. How about: Jim Boheim. Or Syracuse. Or Tyler Ennis. Or a combination of the 3.
