Syracuse Fires Assistant Baketball Coach Bernie Fine After Molestation Charges

Bernie Fine was hired by Syracuse as an assistant men's basketball coach in 1976. Head coach Jim Boeheim made Fine his lead assistant. Now weeks after the Penn State football molestation charges, Syracuse has been hit with the same news. About a week after being put on administrative leave, Fine was fired this week. Several adults who were young men at the time of these alleged molestation acts, finally came out to tell their story. One young man was a ball boy who says he was molested. Similar to Penn State, now Syracuse has plenty of media on campus to cover the breaking news. The former Syracuse ball boy was turned away in 2002 by the police when he tried to tell his side of the story. Day by day the stories get more gruesome. Let's see what the future holds in this case and for head coach Jim Boeheim.
