Syracuse Latest College to Be Embroiled in Controversy Due to Sexual Abuse Accusations
Sex abuse accusations have cast a shadow over yet another major college athletic program.

The allegations against Syracuse associate head basketball coach Bernie Fine came to a head over the holiday weekend, when ESPN played parts of a taped phone conversation accuser Bobby Davis said he had with Fine’s wife. In the phone call, Laurie Fine seems to know of the alleged abuse and voices concern.

Fine was fired on Sunday, but his ouster does not lift the veil of darkness from the university, as demonstrated by Will O’Toole in the cartoon above.

Since graduating from Seton Hall University, Will O’Toole has been doing cartoons for over 30 years for a number of papers (USA Today), magazines (College and Pro Football Weekly) and websites (CBSSportsline.com). He is believed to be the only national cartoonist to have voted for the Heisman Trophy and the Wooden and Naismith Awards.
