It appears athletes (and coaches for that matter) will never learn. The camera is always on you so if you need to go for a dig in the nose, you may want to do what you can to get out of the camera view.

A few weeks back during the NCAA football bowl season we saw LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger pick and eat a booger and now we have Syracuse’s head basketball coach Jim Boeheim pulling a similar move.

Thankfully Boeheim didn’t go finger to mouth here like Mettenberger, but he certainly went for a much deeper dive.

As Boeheim waited for play to resume in Saturday’s afternoon tilt, he decided he’d give his nose a quick massage. No problem there, especially after the coach decided to take his hand away from his face. But it appeared as if he couldn’t get enough as Boeheim’s hand returned to his nose where his pinky subtly slipped inside for a dig that would make gold miners jealous.
