Syracuse legend Carmelo Anthony offered a terse reaction to the Orange’s latest result, posting “SMFH” in response to a highlight from Monday’s loss to North Carolina.
The comment came under a clip shared from the UNC game, with Anthony’s two-word abbreviation widely used online to signal displeasure. Anthony, a former Syracuse star and one of the program’s most prominent alumni, did not add further remarks beyond the brief post.
