    I like seeing Wax and Gadsen on there!

    Was a schedule poster ever made?

    Was planning to make a trip up there but wasn't sure if they would even let anyone in the door

    Trishton Jackson declares for the NFL Draft

    She had a (soon after deleted) Twitter post a couple months ago that basically called him out. As a fan, bummer he is leaving but wish him the best of luck in achieving his athletic dreams.

    Leadership, Mental Toughness, Discipline

    This. Haven't posted in a while, but go back to the post Clemson articles - Riley had a comment that drove me nuts then. Basically, he said "we practiced all off season for this game and we didn't win". Made the Maryland loss make sense and the season as a whole. Bunch of individuals...

    How will Syracuse try to avoid fan pileup that occurred at Clemson game?

    In a nutshell - this is how the Dome has always been when there are people there, why it's an issue now is surprising. Also, people are idiots and can't just walk. The construction has not helped as the access is less from the quad. Thing is, today there were half the fans (if not less) and...

    What section do you sit in?

    310 Row N on the aisle.

    Buzz Williams to A&M

    Not a big boy by any means. They aren't hiring a P5 coach to go there, so it's mid-major or P5 assistant. And, he was an assistant there.

    Frank Howard Suspended

    You seem to be in defensive mode these last few pages Yes, FH is lazy on defense, on many occasions

    Anyone hear anything on parking for next season?

    Skytop gets a bad rap by people who don't know what it's about. It's pretty quick to get from there to the Dome pregame and leaving after is just as easy. Pretty similar to Manley North, minus the ability to walk. We've been there forever and made some great friends, otherwise I'd consider...

    Mike's Mailbox: Who are the greatest leapers in Syracuse basketball history?

    Yes, Damone Brown needs to be here. I've been trying to search youtube for his alley oop from half court, but no luck. Anyone?

    Syracuse.com is a pay site now?

    Absolutely. Granted he is from out that way, but you can't all of a sudden cry for journalistic appreciation (and money) when you fired Sean a few years prior.

    Syracuse.com is a pay site now?

    They cut a ton of talented writers when they decided to go the click bait route years ago, including the sports department (and that's really the vast majority of the real reporters they have now).

    Joe Giglio out of NC just tweeted

    We're moving forward regardless of the bowl we get selected to. Your feelings on the bowl situation matter as much as mine to the team, relax. I still think we get CW, but I'm kinda hoping we don't so you flip out more (I'm assuming that's possible) and get banned for continuing to be an idiot.

    Game Day to UCF

    I'm not sure why everyone cares so much about this. It's not on campus. We're the biggest game this week and will get tons of talk and publicity regardless of where this show is held. My hope is that it serves as extra motivation for the team, and I'm sure Dino will is it as such.

    Louisville Attendance

    We sit in 310, near the top. There are railings on the stairs between 309 and 310 and have been for two years.

    Louisville Attendance

    We start to pack up the tailgate about 45 minutes prior and on the bus about 30 minutes before game time. It's tight, but we are there at kick.

    Louisville Attendance

    We take the bus from skytop every game - only time we miss kickoff is when we tailgate too long and take the bus too late. Just like the armory bus, just need to leave on time.

    Louisville Attendance

    The rest has been discussed, but just pointing out that there are in fact handrails in the 300s now. It's helped people get up (NCST fan with a broken leg a couple weeks ago) but also seems to be a hinderance for drunken idiots riding it down.

    Dino Might Be Disappointed Friday Night

    You are trying to stir the pot. Enough ticket threads a week ahead of time. Just show up and be loud, the rest will work out.

    Syracuse.com is a pay site now?

    They had an ad up that was basically "support local journalists" - they stopped doing that years ago when they canned all their reporters and went the click bait route.

    40,769 attendance

    Think you're off here - much fuller than it has been all year. Our section is normally a ghost town and was jammed. Definitely more than any other game this year - had to be close to 40k if not over. Regardless, it was loud and engaged all game where I was.

    Brother, don't question Dasher (he's a living legend...) It's a message board, that's what they are for. Wild speculation is what it's about, we're fans. All the speculative questions you noted have been brought up prior.

    My Take

    Doesn't matter, just sing it! We sign it at our tailgate - in the past four years my son (13 now) and I have managed to teach a few folks, but most just like to listen to us belt it out. Need more people to learn it. After scores the band plays it, but the bell is ringing over it and with...

    Dome operations need to catch up

    Not saying they aren't a joke and could be better, but the people in the stands are doing what they can with what they got - the stands are extremely tiny and there is no room for anything in there as it is. We have beer, which is better than many. Our food options are limited and stuff wasn't...

    Class of 2019 PF/C Kai Jones (NH/Brewster) to Texas

    Jim was at a Gala last night for a local non-profit, showed up late with a sport coat (made a tremendous donation from his foundation) and said "sorry I don't have a tux but I was with a 6'-10" kid I'm trying to get to come to Syracuse and didn't think that would work well"

    Dome operations need to catch up

    The discount is new, new things always take time to work out (should the woman just have rung up the discount, yes.). There are mostly volunteers but SU Food Services has a supervisor in every stand last I knew. It should be noted that you got a water in the fourth - the Dome was not out of...

    FSU Attendance: 37457

    The concession stands can only hold so much product and are stocked pregame, which normally they do not go through. A day like yesterday was different and demand was extremely high. So yes, the stands temporarily had no water (at the worst time, halftime, by us) but many were restocked in the...

    FSU Attendance: 37457

    Crowd that was there was great, loud on defense on more than just third down too. The fact that FSU was down this year didn't bring alot of their own fans as they have in years past. Was a bit disappointed with the SU fans leaving early though, I get that it was hot, but we haven't had a win...

    OK, What are the Best Restaurants in Syracuse these Days?

    It's not even September yet and everything is stupid already

    Extremely poor to take Eric out in the first half, just gives the opponent the halftime opportunity to say we don't respect them (plus ys not getting extra points). At least wait until the second half, but definitely need to end the experiment sooner than he did today.

    2018 NYS Fair

    They are further away because the location is based on a larger equestrian arena size than the coliseum, hockey rink is much smaller.

    2018 NYS Fair

    It wasn't built for hockey, they just booked a rink in there for the Fair because they didn't have much else. The seats are that way for horse events - it's a convention center, not a sports arena.

    OT advice re camping

    I'd push for the ADK too. Yeah, Nick's Lake is cool and Limekiln is know for bears, but Alger Island on Fourth Lake. It's an island but you can park and take the bridge over to camp, if you can camp on the lake side you're directly accross from Daikers and get free music most nights.

    Springsteen on Bway...

    I've been wanting to go, but the verified fan thing hasn't done me right in getting tickets. Too much of a hassle and I stopped bothering today with the latest round. Just release the long g awaited album and get E Dtreetback on the road already. Was looking forward to the intimate show though.

    Love Battle, but

    No. This game is not on the refs at all, or the zone. Had the game where we wanted it regardless of how we got there. Tie game, but then forced shots and not drives. Stop making it about something more than simple execution.

    Coach Dino Babers seems to pitch SU's academic...

    SU Arch doesn't allow you to play varsity sports if you are in the program (at least they didn't when I was there). Could only imagine someone on a major sport team trying to balance both, and understanding from the coach I can only imagine.
