    2020 Yankees Off Season / Spring Training ...

    I’ve only followed the Yankees over the last few years (haven’t had time to care about the rest of the league), but something about this lack of a season has made me miss it more. When I was approached to start a fantasy baseball league I surprisingly agreed. Although this season is still in...

    Class of 2019 WR Kevin Mital (CN) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (8/9/19)

    Couldn’t watch his videos at work. Just got a chance to catch up at home. Kid reminds me of Kelvin Harmon.

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    I guess it really did get off topic (Sean Tucker not KL hahaha). I’ll try to bring it back without upsetting everyone. Sean Tucker is a complete RB with elite talents that I think is going to be huge for the future of Syracuse. Go Orange!

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    I’ve been told on this forum that I was wrong because I disagreed with a HS football coach, because apparently they know everything. If a HS coach is all knowing, what do you call the GM, scouts and coaches of the NFL? I would say that their “Opinions” are the closest thing to FACT in this...

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    You’re right it is time for you to go back to the Syracuse.com boards. Because it’s posts like yours bringing down this forum. I used to think syracusefan.com was the better place for people with more thoughts on the game than “speed is good”. If you disagree with me (and the NFL for that...

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    Speed does not equal “natural athleticism”. You can be athletic without being fast. And fast without being very athletic. I’m not saying that this kid isn’t fast or isn’t naturally athletic. What I’m saying is straight line speed is overrated on a RB. It’s great if you have it in the open...

    We’re lucky Sean Riley didn’t work out. He turned into an amazing slot receiver. ;)

    Class of 2020 RB Marlowe Wax Jr (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/14/19)

    Kid moves a lot better than you would expect for someone that's 6'0" 220. He must be pretty well buffed.

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    Speed is great and the kid has an impressive amount. But if he’s running straight into the line or the arms of a defender, it’s useless. Look, I’m not trying to take away from the kid, actually I want to celebrate that he’s got everything you might look for in a RB (change of direction...

    Class of 2019 LB Josh Kosciol (NY) PWO Committed to Syracuse

    After watching his tape I had the same thought. Either this kid needs to slim up to be more agile at LB/ST, or he needs to get bigger to play DT. My money is on him becoming a DT, but he can’t just add on pounds. He looks like he is struggling at the weight he already is. I trust Sean to get...

    Class of 2020 RB Sean Tucker (MD) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (4/13/19)

    Take the time to watch both videos CuseLegacy posted. I was at a middle school musical yesterday when I saw the news. Before it started I was only able to watch the first one. I thought he looked ok, but wasn’t all that impressed. THEN, I noticed I was watching his sophomore tape. The show...

    Class of 2019 C Jesse Edwards (NL/IMG) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    I love this kid. His athletic ability and offensive touch will help this offense immensely. The Orange would pick and roll with Chukwu, but rarely give him the ball despite obvious height advantage. Because, you couldn’t trust him to catch it and make a play and not bring it down where it can...

    Any good TE stuck in the portal with Kirk and Spock?

    I think we all assume the staff has been working on it, but I know that personally I come here to speculate about who it is (or find out who it is). Isn't that why most people are here?

    Gabe Horan medically disqualified due to concussions

    I am gutted. He was probably my favorite player from the class and I had high hopes for him as a red zone monster if not a lot more. Best wishes, Gabe.

    Class of 2019 RB/S Jamel Starks (GA) Committed to Louisville transferring from Houston

    A bigger Antwan Bailey? Would have liked to see more video of his coverage skills, but with those offers I’ll assume they’re at least “good enough”.

    This Guy Gets No Credit

    Cisco or Szmyt? ;) I’m assuming the kicker, but a true freshman taking the job from a well respected 5th year senior and leading all of college football with 7 interceptions might receive some votes as well. Guthrie was certainly a huge impact player I wish we could enjoy for more seasons...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    Certainly an exaggeration on my part to say I would want to be unranked after a National Championship. Obviously after another year like this one I would hope no one, especially ourselves, think we are anything less than a top 25 program. I think the uptick in recruiting because of Athlon’s...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    I get that. Having a true understanding of what each FBS team will do next year, even the top 50 is a tough job. Using the past to predict the future is an easy way to get things right more often than not. I’m just saying in general, if your job really depended on it, it’s a flawed method. I...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    What was there to love or rank about the past 17 years? The Robinson years? The Shafer years? Maybe 1 Marrone year? I’m not saying I don’t want a top 25 team, I’m saying I don’t need these analysts’ respect. In fact I’d prefer the team to still feel disrespected (especially before the...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    Maybe we differ in what a pre-season ranking represents. To me it represents how they think these teams are going to perform in the upcoming season. Not a gauge on what respect each program deserves because of what they’ve done in the past. If it’s a gauge on respect, Florida State is the...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    I didn’t miss the point, I disagree with it. They are entitled to their opinion if that’s truly what they believe, but if we continue to be overlooked because they only looking at recruiting stars instead of development and system they should lose all credibility. What they did two years ago...

    Athlon Way Too Early Top 25 for 2019

    We could win the National Championship and I would want us to be “unranked” heading into the next season. I think this team feeds on being underrated. I know it works for me.

    Class of 2019 DE Andrew Tuazama (NC) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE 12/19/18

    As a FR he would immediately be our biggest DE. You definitely know more about this stuff than me, but with that size already I was thinking he may be destined for DT as well.

    Class of 2019 DE/TE Cooper Dawson (SC) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE 12/19/18

    Of course. We’ve had higher profile wins and beaten stronger offers lists. But, I don’t remember too many where the kid made that decision on signing day in front of an audience and cameras. It would be great to NOT be the fake-out hat for a change. It would be great to have that exposure...

    Class of 2019 DE/TE Cooper Dawson (SC) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE 12/19/18

    Close your eyes and imagine the table in front of Dawson with all the hats on it; Clemson, UCLA, UCF and Syracuse. Now think about how it would feel that he picks up the Clemson hat. Then puts it down and slaps on the good Orange. What a moment it will be to see him pick us over that lineup.

    Class of 2019 OT Jimmy Fritzsche (SC) Committed to Nebraska

    Thanks for the confirmation. Not "athletic enough for TE" could be a very nice athletic OT, but as stated earlier he's probably been replaced by Tisdale.

    Class of 2019 OT Jimmy Fritzsche (SC) Committed to Nebraska

    I would love to have another kid this size at TE. Is no one offering him at TE because he isn't athletic enough to play the position at the college level?

    Class of 2019 DT Joe Rondi (NJ) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE 12/19/18

    Class of 2019 DE/TE Cooper Dawson (SC) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE 12/19/18

    In my limited viewing, he seemed to play with a lot of strength and good agility/athleticism for someone his size. I think he would make a good DT with added size. Do you think the "explosive step" looked slow for a DE maybe, but would be enough for a larger DT?
