    Class of 2025 DB Marcus Upton (NJ) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (3/23/24)

    Exactly. If every 4 star recruit received $150,000 / year @ 85 roster spots , SU would need boosters to covers 12.8 million annually just for the football team. I suspect our strategy is to recruit under the radar/development out of highschool and use Nil to attract high end transfers /...

    Class of 2025 DB Jordan Gibbs (NY) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (3/24/24)

    I don't mind it. While our NIL fund isn't nothing, we don't have the resources to sign a full class of 4 and 5 stars. If you find someone under the radar you like, makes sense to grab and gives you more flexibility on a few higher rated prospects/transfers

    Class of 2023 CB AJ Harris (AL) Portal from Georgia to PSU

    When I was very little I remember watching Auburn on tv and thinking it was the community college. I remember my dad laughing and trying to explain it to me. Then Jan 1st 1988 happened. First time at nine years old I heard my grandfather curse and call them every name in book when they kicked...

    OT any bourbon or whiskey drinkers?

    I wasn't that impressed, but apparently which batch you get makes a huge difference. I have a 6 for which they didn't use the normal 4 grain blend. I bought a bottle of the base whiskey for comparison and quite enjoyed it. Will get a bottle of batch 7 if I see it out, but I'm not going out of my way

    Class of 2023 WR Yazeed Haynes (PA) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (12/16/23)

    My dream is we somehow finished 5-8 in polls , so we could have a home playoff game. Could you imagine playing Penn State in a 6 -10 matchup, how loud the dome would be for that.

    Season ticket poll

    Can't wait. This past year was the first we didn't get season tickets in years. For three reasons, one I knew it would be hard for me to make any games this past year (I didn't ) 2- they jacked my tickets up in cost two years in a row ( I paid a lot of money to watch us loose more often than...

    2023 college football playoffs

    They both played LSU, bama at home won by 14 FSU on a neutral field won by 21. FSU should show up to the bowl game and refuse to take the field. Tell the bowls to suck a egg televise that.

    History Repeating

    I wanted Dino to succeed so badly, but as a GameDay and x & O's coach he was terrible. With an NFL caliber QB, LT and RB on the roster he couldn't scheme the team to .500 season . His GameDay decisions cost the team a chance at victory minimum 2 games a year. I'm not worried about changing...

    CB Duce Chestnut transferring to LSU

    The big 10 TV money doesn't directly affect nli money . However if the school doesn't need boosters to raise money for example new locker rooms because they have extra TV money to pay for them, instead their boosters set up a nil with money they would have donated to the school directly

    Boy, this NIL thing is really endearing to fans

    Not fairly. NFL players get 48% of revenue. So explain to me how any division 1 player regardless of school is getting close to fair market value . Just because one gymnast is earning life changing money, or a field hockey player might be getting 10k for advertising or a lacrosse player might...

    Boy, this NIL thing is really endearing to fans

    My problem with all this is this really only benefits the big time schools. Kids while earning some money are still not getting market value, while small schools are taking the brunt of loses. Alabama doesn't care if it's boosters are giving out 10 million in nil deals instead of giving it to...

    CB Duce Chestnut transferring to LSU

    We all knew when the nil and transfer rules were announced it would favor the haves. The big time schools are only going to put forward proposals that benefit them. They could have years ago allowed kids to transfer if their coach left or when they graduate. Years ago they could have come up...

    I love Shrader but he's not a NFL quarterback. Doesn't mean he can't be a great college player and lead this team to a high level bowl or ACC championship. In the world there are less than a 100 people on NFL rosters as quarterback's, and he doesn't have the natural abilities/skill
