message: 2 incidents were named.  
1. Racist sign incident, article claims he put up the sign himself.  I have searched the Washington Post archives, and the incident is referred to a few times, but nowhere does it say he did it.  Respectable source trumps some webpage.  
2. Unsourced, apocryphal feel.

message: I believe this statement is erroneous. 
Thompson still holds conference records for most overall Big East wins (231), most regular-season Big East wins (198) and conference championships (seven regular season, six tournaments).
Jim Boeheim of Syracuse has won 323 Big East games regular season.
Reference on that stat can be found here
