If you are a coach, especially a high paying assistant coach, watch out, the fakers, liars and other crackpots and their attorneys are now targeting you.
Just about 2 weeks after the Jerry Sandusky/Penn State sexual assaults allegations came out, now there is another college coach being accused of sexual assault. This time, however, this case has little creditability.
From ESPN: Syracuse associate men's basketball coach Bernie Fine, accused by two former ball boys of molesting them over a 16-year period, strongly denied the allegations Friday in a statement released by his lawyer.
In the statement, Fine said the allegations have been thoroughly investigated multiple times and that he has fully cooperated with past inquiries....
In on-camera interviews with ESPN, Davis said he was sexually abused "hundreds of times" and said that when he resisted, Fine would become more aggressive.
Asked why he didn't come forward during the 16 years he said Fine molested and sexually abused him, Davis said: "I honestly didn't think anybody would believe me."
On Thursday, both men spoke in on-camera interviews with ESPN, describing what they said were encounters with Fine that included reaching into their shorts and rubbing their genitals.
"I didn't feel right about it," Lang said. "And I told him, 'Bernie, please don't do that to me.' "
Davis told "Outside the Lines" that Boeheim saw him in Fine's hotel room on several of those road trips, but Davis said he never told Boeheim about the alleged abuse.
Davis said sexual contact with Fine continued until he was about 27 years old.
Boeheim came to Fine's defense Thursday.
"I know this kid, but I never saw him in any rooms or anything," Boeheim told ESPN. "It is a bunch of a thousand lies that he has told. You don't think it is a little funny that his cousin (relative) is coming forward?
"He supplied four names to the university that would corroborate his story. None of them did ... there is only one side to this story. He is lying."

Could these assaults have happened ? Sure and there is a chance that I will vote for President Obama for president next year.
But because these two liars see that some kids hit the money jackpot, they are going to try and get their jackpot. My guess is that their attorney's tried to blackmail Syracuse and Syracuse called their bluff and they went public.
But for awhile, it will open season on high priced coaches of all sports by the greedy lawyers and their greedy clients who are looking for a big payday.
