SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- A Syracuse University judicial hearing board has ruled that starting guard Eric Devendorf violated the Student Code of Conduct after allegedly hitting a female student in the face.
The board recommended that Devendorf, a 6-foot-4 junior, be suspended for the remainder of the academic year.

The biggest problem at SU as in many other major sports schools is that too many times the star basketball player or football player is let off with a slap on the wrist. The local DA here won't even touch them as well.
So we shall all see if SU finally has the balls and says goodbye to this player.
