    Give us your top 5 realistic next HC

    The damage that TGD did to our program can not be understated. Unbelievable that he was allowed to do it. Gross negligence (see what I did there)?

    Its a good thing Pitt doesn’t have a fan base

    Narduzzi reminded me today of Pasqualoni against that temple QB years ago.

    Shrader

    I’m thinking that he missed 6 months of weight lifting because of the surgery. I think he’s lost a lot of muscle mass and can’t take the hits anymore, so he’s not running like in the past.

    Army Post Game Thread

    It also was not “socks too high”. It was knee pads not low enough. Only time I’ve ever seen it called. They changed the rule shortly after. What a screw job by the SEC refs. Florange44

    my two cents

    KC- I’m with you, too many head scratchers for me yesterday. 1) if Beck thinks we’re going to impose our will, why start the game with 2 Shader runs? Save him. 2) way too many off tackle runs and nothing to the outside when we were clearly faster and bigger with the wrs 3) we were all screaming...

    my two cents

    Love to see your comments about your Dad. My Dad took me to my first games at Archbold in the late 60s/early70s. Got me hooked at an early age. Still am. Dad was friends with Rocco Pirro who coached under Ben as you know. They grew up together in Solvay. Peace. Florange44

    JB roast last night at Oakhill CC in Rochester

    Julie needs to put one of these on in Syracuse as a fundraiser for their charity. They could get 5000 people at $50 each with the right lineup of speakers. Is there a good venue for something like that these days in Cuse?

    BC postgame thoughts

    Not for me. For me, the best feeling was setting up a teammate for a layup with a nice pass. Dont know why, I could score, but always preferred a sweet dish.

    Loved the new pass play yesterday

    I don’t recall it. If we did i’m Surprised, I see all the games and have been begging for this play since Kelce killed us with it ~10 years ago. I would have noticed, maybe I was in the head. What game was it? Did it work?

    Loved the new pass play yesterday

    let’s use it on the first 4th and 1 we have next year. It’ll go for a TD.

    Loved the new pass play yesterday

    I think you can with LQA. He can run by a LB or Safety easily if he sells it right. It’s got to be set up correctly of course.

    Loved the new pass play yesterday

    I think the pass play we ran yesterday with Shrader faking the run into the line then throwing over the middle is a great play. Yesterday it worked to Gadsden once, then Shrader missed LQA on one the would have been a TD. We should use that 2x per game next year. With Shrader a big threat to...

    What is Shraders injury?

    Shrader was clearly not 100% for the game. He’s been <100% since Clemson, that’s 9 weeks or so. Even a high ankle sprain should heal in that time. Does he have something more serious that needs surgery? Does he have a leg problem and a shoulder problem? He was a much better QB the first 6+...

    12 men penalty

    Good point. Maybe 5 yds on the defense automatically except for unsportsmanlike penalties?

    12 men penalty

    It seems to me that when there is a 12 men on the field penalty on the defense, anything that happens on the play should be null and void and the screen defense gets a 5 yard penalty. Unless the offense wants to decline. In our case it didn’t matter but to have offsetting penalties in that...

    Why does Wax play on punt return? He cant be that valuable there, but he has to run 5 extra sprints and wear down for the 4th Q? What’s the logic?

    Worst Rotations in College Hoops (Article)

    Bees- I agree, we run sets but in fairness, they aren’t very effective. We have the worst high ball screen in CBB. 90% of the time there is no contact with the defender on the screen, he just goes over a weak screen and then we resort to iso ball way too often. Truth be told our guards are...

    JP -NIL

    They locked the JP thread so I’ll put this here. My connection at Tennessee says that JP got more than $1M. The other 4/5 they got a few months before JP got $1M and he was not as highly ranked. BTW- that figure is over 4 years, paid annually or monthly. Florange44

    New Enrique Cruz and Brady Denaburg interviews

    Yes, we did. It’s in his recruiting thread. And his sister is a scholarship volleyball player at UCLA. A hugely athletic family. And his high school soccer coach was Nate Trout, former Cuse kicker. I haven’t been stalking him btw, he lives in my area. Florange44

    Class of 2023 PF Joseph "JP" Estrella (ME / Brewster) Offered

    I talked to my friend who is connected at Tenn. Like “talk to Barnes everyday” connected. He said when JP visited Tenn the coaches thought things went great and that they would likely get him. Since then, he told me they have signed 2 bigs that are similar position as JP and things have...

    Mikel Jones...

    No one with any knowledge is talking about USF like that. Some may be saying UCF but they are crazy. UCF will be right there with FSU in 20 years, but they will never overtake the Gators. The gap is not that big on the field, but everywhere else it’s huuuuge. That’s like saying Ohio U with...

    Johnny B. Badd meets JB

    Marc was class of 78 at Liverpool. One year after Pete Holohan and 3 years before Tim Green I believe. Good dude. Amazing career with many up and downs. Seems like he’s doing well lately. Glad to see it.

    USC and UCLA to the Big Ten

    I am very familiar with UCF and USF. I agree about UCF, that school is a giant in the making. USF is a dumpster fire and IMO will never get there. UCF pulls students from all over the state. USF is 80% Tampa kids, very limited appeal around the state and not much even in Tampa. However...

    Buddy/Jimmy NIL results

    I heard a podcast with Coach Boeheim yesterday where he said that Buddy “probably made 100k from NIL” and Jimmy “made about 30k”. I had not heard numbers before. In both cases, the amounts were higher than I expected. Maybe we aren’t as far behind in NIL for the 50-100 type of players...

    Class of 2021 PF Brandon Huntley-Hatfield (PA)

    My insider at UT basketball says BHH is a drama queen who won’t work hard and constantly argues with the coaches. Wasn’t a good fit for the UT culture. Says his AAU coach and his mother are always in his ear about playing time. This kid is not the type we need and not the type that will mesh...
