    I'm in a show hole, need suggestions

    Watched the first 2 episodes of Dope Theif on Amazon, it has potential. Its basically how it sounds, couple of guys pretend to be DEA agents and rob drug dealers and things get interesting. Wont say more for those who wish to give it a watch, not bad so far

    C William Kyle (NE) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (3/27/25)

    I'd be surprised if he is coming here to be the back up.

    College Basketball apparently not dead??

    I dont think this comparison is apples to apples year over year. I think this part of the article should be taken into consideration... "Of course, the record-setting viewership figures come with the significant caveat that this is the first tournament Nielsen has measured using its updated...

    Donnie and JJ back

    Good to hear we are able to put some solid NIL money to work. I hope its enough to get this program back on its feet and back to where we should be. Dasher you know why we didn't have the NIL funding last year? I know its been said that we were not "ready", what does that mean? We're we doing...

    NCAA 2nd Round Games for Sun March 23

    God I hate Hurley. He demonstratively curses at the ref to their face telling them their call is BS twice and its allowed because its "just Danny Hurley being competitive". I hope a rep pops him in the face one of these days, he deserves it

    A first for me.

    Gambling on the games help, but you are not alone in you sentiments. College basketball has, and is continuing, to lose its luster. A little ways back someone posted ratings for the final 4 over the past 20 or so years and the ratings are less than half of what they were back in the early...

    So what region are we in and what's our seed?

    The bracket was released early and it appears we're a 1 seed in the ninth level of hell, go Orange!

    Starling had the least efficient season for a starting shooting guard going back to 04-05

    Here is my hot take/grenade im rolling into the forum for fun discussion, not only will JJ be back next year but he'll be our starting point guard... have a great rest of your day everyone!

    SMU Post Game

    This is one of my biggest fears. Thats 2 more years, and by the time he's gone there's a chance (i pray we hit an homerun) we could struggle a bit under the new coach while they get their sea legs for a year or so. That could mean we'd have obviously the rest if this year, next year, then 2 more...

    It seems when you look across the country and the P5 everyone with our size pocketbook seem, for the most part, to be managing just fine and winning. What I dont want to hear is excuses for the second year in a row that its the kids. Last year it was we heard (from posters with ties to the...

    Pete Thamel

    I agree, and the kids coming out with no fire to play is as much coaching as anything else. Thats on Red. As a coach a big part of the process is getting them mentally ready and motivated.
  12. Janner

    Pete Thamel

    Thats a very fair counterpoint. Debacle is probably to strong of a word, and many people did want him back. That said I think it helps to some degree to illustrate my general point that after having that contract experience you would think the athletic department would have even more reason to...

    Pete Thamel

    Giving a contract like that, to someone with no head coaching experience, is just dumb and poor business. Even Bobby Bonilla would be proud of what Red accomplished here

    Pete Thamel

    100% right. This is shocking if true. Utterly shocking. JW needs to be called out for this level of absolute incompetence if this is the case. How do you not learn your lesson, or at least be cautious, after the Babers debacle?! ADJW might have just signed his own death sentence because this...

    VA TECH Post Game

    Man! That pesky hi pick and roll is just impossible to defend. I wish one day someone somewhere could figure out how to come up with a way to defend this unicorn of a play thats plagued us game in and game out all season... FFS, the signs and neon lights are screaming the OBVIOUS. Fire. This...

    This program needs to be put down like Old Yeller. Please ADJW just pull the damn trigger already

    Donnie Done For Season

    First off I just want to say thank you your information and insight into the program. I belive most posters truly appreciate your insight and willingness to post the information. Its truly appreciated. But imo, I dont think its unreasonable to believe cusefan0307's views could be right, or at...

    Jeff Ambrosie New Assistant Offensive Line Coach

    I really like the pick up, can't ever go wrong with additional OLine help and ive heard this guys is very well known throughout NY for his recruiting chops, all the high school coaches love him. Im really interested to see how he does

    West Coast Trip Game 1 PostGame

    These slow starts game after game after game is 100% coaching. JB would either call a quick timeout and/or light up the team, set up a play or adjust the zone defense, yell at a kid that wasn't moving or took a bad shot or turned over the ball... Red does nothing. Litteraly nothing. He rarely...

    Pitt Post Game

    Got to lover Red not opening his mouth all game to teach or coach his kids on what they are doing right or wrong. Just so bad. I was never the biggest JB fan but at least he coached all game long. The silver lining here is the more losses we have the quicker Red get let go. These losses suck...

    Post Game Notre Dame

    Kids looked far more engaged and hungry in the second half, not sure what what happend at half but ill give Red credit for the change of tone and the win on that one
  22. Janner

    Is anyone confident we can have a winning team under Red next year?

    There was a 60 second stretch tonight in the first half where they played and fought and battled with everything they had. That was one of the only times I saw that kind of fight and battle all year. The biggest problem is, that should be occurring all game, all season long. Effort and fight, is...

    Starling > Mintz

    I dont believe i have seen anyone claim Mintz was a great defender. All im saying is if we are comparing players people should take into consideration both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball when doing so. There has been some discussion comparing their offensive games, but there...

    Starling > Mintz

    Sure. But thats kind of the point. If people are comparing two players, shouldn't we factor in defense? Its kind of important. And JJs defense is, well, bad.

    Starling > Mintz

    This board gets silly sometimes. If we're just talking offense then JJ vs Juda is debatable. Defensively, it 2 different levels. Juda is 2x the defenive player that JJ is. And its not even close.

    Syracuse can’t compete

    If they are paying him 4 million a yr what does that end up getting them? Maybe a few 8, 9, or 10 win seasons? Unless they are spending the same amount on the OL and DL they arnt winning a championship and probably arnt making the playoffs. Will the donors be happy with that likely outcome? If...

    Wildhack is on the Clock

    The hard truth is we arnt relevant. And the administration needs to realize just how bad things are. The truth is we haven't been even mildly relevant in about 4 years. The rest of the country's P5 looks at this program as an easy W, and has for a while now. People get way to caught up in the...

    SMU...no bueno

    While the SMU game outcome was suboptimal they achieved the goal they needed to in their first yr in the ACC. The billionaire backers there will now spend enough money to make this a team that can compete nationally moving forward.

    Class of 2022 QB Beau Pribula (PA) Portal to Mizzou

    Yeah this is odd, Aller is probably going pro this year so he would be the starting qb there unless PSU went to the portal, but this kid is solid so I dont know why you would. Maybe he's trying to leverage his payday from PSU? Someone might have more info here but id take this kid in a Penn...

    Class of 2022 OT Rahtrel Perry (NY) Portal to Maryland

    I cant speak for him, but I would guess he would be interested in a position on the staff. He thinks very highly of Fran.

    Class of 2022 OT Rahtrel Perry (NY) Portal to Maryland

    Their offensive coordinator, who was previously the OL, works closely with the OL coach, is from Skaneateles, attended and played at CBA and played OL at Cortland State.

    How does Bell go from 40% to less than 25%

    He's a set shooter who needs space to get his shot off, if he doesn't have that space he can't shoot. Last year Juda could beat his man and attack the basket getting Bell open, or 1/2 open looks. Brown would make hustle plays or grab offensive rebounds and kick it to Bell for open or half open...

    Okay, let's fire

    Well, when the stands are empty for the rest of the year, which they will be, and people don't renew their season tickets next year, and they won't... then the athletic department will loose millions in revenue. So the net potential lost revenue could actually justify the buy out at some point...

    Next year - QB?

    If you are McCord i dont think it hurts to come back for an extra year. Right now he isn't on any draft boards, that could change if he goes to the combine, but it also might not. Reports are he got $1.3 million to play this year. If he comes back for another $1.3+ million there is a good...

    Final CFP Rankings for Dec 8

    SEC gets what they deserve for driving confrence realignment/expansion with all their greed. Enjoy the meat grinder and degradation of the middle and lower end programs in your confrence for the next decade.

    how many years do we have to pretend

    Unfortunately I believe you are correct. There will be some pressure when no one is in the Dome. I just hope Red doesn't have a Dino 'excuse' job saving type yr next yr where the team gets 20 wins next year and no NCAAs and convinces JW that they will be even better the following year.

    2024 bowl projections thread

    The payments for these bowls should go to NIL instead of the schools. Winner of the games get more than the losers, it would make the bowls more significant. Jmo

    Next year - QB?

    You don't have to twist my arm to convince me, id be as happy as can be because McCord for another year could solidify this program, and Fran, as a contender. Your lips to God ears. That said, if ND said we will pay you 5 million for one yr of your services, the water can get pretty muddy
  41. Janner

    Next year - QB?

    If I were McCord I'd try and get another year, given the potential payday he might get why wouldn't you? Keep in mind that last year may not be at Syracuse if one of the blue bloods come calling

    Anyone know what Corch Brown's buyout is??

    Well first off, your welcome, enjoy that CCG we just allowed you to be able to play in. Second, I heard from reliable sources Fran's buyout is $1 gogillion dollars and a bag of deez nuts. Just having fun with ta GBO, your good in our book, and good luck against SMU!

    Haven't gotten an ounce of pressure on Ward yet. Id rather hum beat us with big plays because were blitzing the house then let him have all day. Unfortunately Robinson choose the latter and as a result the game is over by the end of the 1st quarter

    Its like they get some play calling stuck in their heads and are too stubborn to back out of it sometimes. Just frustrating
