Why are you continuing to use Hayes McGinley’s mug shot in stories? Why not use his team media photo? He was charged with a violation and he has no record. And you put it before the Boeheim story? Does someone at the DO have a vendetta against this kid? Saw no mention of the athlete who destroyed the mount olympus stairs? I thought the journalism at SU was supposed to have integrity.
