It seems the two old friends are at odds over who replaces whom in the BE. JB thinks Rick and Louisville are two faced and would jump at a chance to bail on the BE. I didn't see anything in this article that lead me to believe that Rick was bashing Syracuse, I think that JB is overreacting a lot. It's a good read and I assume there will be more to see in the near future.
