What's the rule for the game after ejection? Is it automatic suspension?? Boehiem whines until the refs look at a replay to decide to suspend Andrew. If the pointy nosed hellspawn costs us our next game too......

Pretty tough comment. Did you watch the game? It sure doesn't look like a foul let alone a fragrant foul. In fact, none of the refs saw any foul or called any foul either until Rautins went into his act and the ref looked for a player on replay that might have done this. The replay shows nothing but moving past each other. A foul would have been stretching it on the play let alone a flagrant foul and getting thrown out of the arena. You are so quick to abandon Andrew.

According to the CUSE board in the postgame interview, COACH B said "He didn't see a thing". Then why did he cry to the refs. Also, some idiots on their board are calling the BONNIES thugs and said TRICHE was also intentionally hurt. Strange comment since BRANDON initiated the contact.

I saw the replay like everyone else....and it really didn't reveal much, if anything.
A poor call by the refs.

Andrew got himself alone in this. Take that garbage elsewhere. According to a few reliable sources, Andrew will not be suspended.

In his post game with Gary Nease, Schmidt stated Andrew made a mistake.

AP summary in NY Times also quotes Schmidt error in judgement. I like the physical play by the Bonnies.
No. 5 Syracuse pulls away from Bonnies, 85-72
By CHRIS CAROLA, Associated Press Writer
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) St. Bonaventure was holding its own against Syracuse's bigger and better inside players.
Then the fifth-ranked Orange took things outside.
Brandon Triche and Andy Rautins each hit consecutive 3s during a second-half surge, and Syracuse turned back every rally by the pesky Bonnies in an 85-72 victory Saturday night.
"We were a step slow defensively in the first half but got a little quicker in the second half," said Syracuse coach Boeheim. "Brandon made a couple of 3s to give us some space and then Andy hit two big shots."
Triche's 3s gave Syracuse (11-0) a 51-39 lead with 15:39 left in the second half, and the pair of 3-pointers by Rautins within a 15-second span a few minutes later gave the Orange enough cushion to hold off St. Bonaventure.
"This was a real physical game," said Rick Jackson, a 6-foot-9 junior who finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds. "It was a game where whoever outworked the other team was going to win. I think we outworked them at the end."
Wes Johnson finished with 17 points and Kris Joseph came off the bench to add 17.
"We knew it was going to be a physical, but we were up to it," said Johnson, who also had 10 rebounds. "By far, this was our most physical test of the season."
Andrew Nicholson and Chris Matthews kept it close for the Bonnies, who trailed 39-35 at halftime. Matthews hit three 3-pointers and Nicholson scored 14 of his 18 points in the first half before being ejected with 8:29 left in the game for committing a flagrant foul on Rautins.
Nicholson's foul came just after the Syracuse guard hit his two 3-pointers to give the Orange a 69-54 lead with 9:19 left.
Bonnies coach Mark Schmidt called the foul "an error in judgment."
With their 6-foot-9 leading scorer sent to the locker room, the Bonnies had a tough time handling Jackson and Johnson inside. After the Bonnies pulled within 79-67 with 2:41 left, Johnson and Joseph scored consecutive baskets to put the game away.
Until being tossed, Nicholson was holding his own with Syracuse's big men, scoring off an array of dunks, jump hooks and short jumpers.
"I thought we did a good job getting it down low," Schmidt said. "But Syracuse is good. They're long and they're athletic."
Matthews finished with 17 points and Jonathan Hall had 10 for the Bonnies (6-4), who are 0-9 in the Carrier Dome and have lost 12 straight to the Orange.
St. Bonaventure trailed 18-11 before rallying to take 35-32 lead on Nicholson's jumper with 3:34 left in the first half. Jackson's layup and Johnson's 3-pointer handed the lead back to the Orange with 1:57 left, before Joseph's two free throws finished the scoring for the half.
Matthews finished 4 for 18 from 3-point range and credited Syracuse's defense in the second half for making adjustments to keep him off balance.
"I need to be more focused and tuned in to the shots," he said.

I sure hope he is not out for the Purple Eagles game, or any other games for that matter. His presence was sorely missed in the last ten minutes of this evenings game. He is a difference maker in all the games. But hats off to Matthews for a great game, and Conger.

Question: Is Schmidt calling the foul an "error in judgment" by Nicholson or by the referee??

I don't know the rule about having to sit out the next game, but I do know it was a flagrant foul. I was sitting on that end of the court, four rows up, and clearly saw the action. There was no question that Andrew hit Rautins, the only thing I dispute was Rautin's account that it was a closed fist. That wasn't my impression. It was clearly out of character, but it was also clear that Andrew was more than willing to establish a physical presence throughout the game. That's not a bad thing for conference play.

Yes, it was an error in judgment on Andrew's part, but Rautins in not without fault here either. I didn't get to see the game, was at a Xmas party at the wife's boss's house, and they didn't get that channel; but accordin to the morning paper, Rautins admits that "I was pretty jacked up about the threes, and getting pretty vocal out there."
So, trash talk is acceptable now ? It's all right for Rautins to taunt and trash talk apparently, because he plays for the almighty Syracuse Boeheims !
Yes, what Andrew did was wrong, but you can't let a trash-talking punk get under your skin like that. He has to remember this incident in the future, and not retaliate again.
He also has to prove he is the bigger man here, and step forward and offer a public apology. Call Rautins and apologize directly. Call the Syracuse papers, and get it in print. Same with the Times herald.
Show them the gentleman that you are Andrew.

GET REAL Syracuse Sucks. The dome sucks, The orange suck. Boeheim Sucks. G-Mac sucks. Dome Dogs Suck. Rautins sucks. PERIOD Go Bonnies and Go Andrew Dunkelson

I gotta say I agree with STUD. The day we have to apologize to Rautins or any other cocky douche is the day I lose faith in humanity.
