    MCW has to stop trying to be a lottery

    explain your logic. Ryan Nassib ranked 65th last year in passer efficiency rating. He played a weak schedule. He was a negative with his legs. How in the world did that make him top 50 last year? It obviously didn't. The same fanboys who shouted me down with so much spittle last...

    nassib's last 5 games

    that's completely arbitrary, and it means Rakeen Cato and Browning are both top 50 QB. Infact, you must rate Cato even higher, he is top 3 in total yards. I'm a pro evaluator, I could obviously not care less about whether you think I'm a good poster. Will you at least admit that my post from...

    MCW has to stop trying to be a lottery

    Nassib finished 65th in passer efficiency rating last year, and that was only among qualified passers, and not including his negative legs. I was correct last year, no sane person can dispute that. It's closer this year, but I am on very solid grounds to say that Nassib's top-40 qualified...

    nassib's last 5 games

    I mistakenly said Nassib was 39th among qualified passers against FBS, when he was 33rd. That doesn't make my statement that Casey Pashall, Braxton Miller, and Devin Garder are better QBs wrong, despite not qualifying or not ranking better than Nassib. Similarly, I am correct that Cuse fans...

    nassib's last 5 games

    Why the focus on the gross yardage? Of all posters on this board, surely you know that an argument based on total yards rather than efficiency is a partial argument. I think you actually do understand how a QB who is ranked mid-30s in rating, top ten in YPG, and top 12 in total yardage could...

    MCW has to stop trying to be a lottery

    Jordan Jefferson had legal troubles. Lee has disappointed, I was wrong about him. Both still got a shot in the pros, and easily out-performed Nassib last season, which was my argument. Price was better than Nassib last year, when I said he was. I never said Kinne or Brantley would be drafted. Do...

    nassib's last 5 games

    You are correct, 33rd, not 39th. I was wrong on that one. So yes, 33rd is solidly top 50 in pure passing numbers, but again, this is only qualified passers, not including Pashall, Garnder, and other better QBs who have played shorter seasons. Braxton Miller and other dual threats are also far...

    nassib's last 5 games

    39th vs FBS. If you want to say that is solidly top 50, that's fine, it's semantics. I don't think Nassib will stay that highly ranked anyway, as this is rare territory for him driven by his recent hot streak. Let's hope he proves me wrong though, it would hardly be the first time. What is...

    nassib's last 5 games

    Nassib has had pro help at WR and RB every year. He has a pro LT. Even Macky is (to my extreme surprise) getting some attention. Cuse fans blame 21 players to protect 1 far too often. I do think he will be a third day pick though, and he will continue to be a winner and a great Cuse guy.

    nassib's last 5 games

    Nassib's last five games have been great, but you have been correct all along about Nassib's limitations. His 143 passer efficiency rating this year against FBS teams is only ok, barely top 50. When you add in injured studs, back up studs, and running studs, Nassib is far from top 50. No...

    MCW has to stop trying to be a lottery

    Dash, you're the dood, I've got respect for you all day, so I hear ya on Nassib's improvement. He has put up some huge games for Cuse. Nassib has won us games, against good teams. So Nassib deserves some praise. I've been scouting him all year, seen every Cuse game, etc., but I obviously could...

    OT: Grinnell player scored 138 points tonight

    My buddy Steve Wood used to play on Grinnell, and was the all-time D3 scoring leader for some time I believe. Hmm, maybe he was just Grinnell's career leader, but because of how they play that might also be the D3 career leader. We played on the same law school rec league team, and he was just...

    Cooney defense

    Fab got screwed. Most of our team, at any given time, has academic shortcomings similar to Fab. His simply occurred. The maliciousness directed at him is unfitting, Fab Melo is Cuse for life. Forth was a pretty poor player, but he's Cuse and a champion, hard to complain. I'm well aware of your...

    Yea, got banned for being right, ya know, happens every 6 months or so. Now i'm making my rounds, being a rabble rouser. I won't win any popularity contests, but this board is great, Cuse fans got fire in their bellies. Team Igor for life.

    MCW has to stop trying to be a lottery

    Haha, I love this guy! I was 100% correct that Nassib was not a top 50 QB last year, as he proved by the seasons' end. I actually just recently re-posted my old link to remind you amateur fanboys that Nassib is still not a top 50 qb, not even this year. Millhouse and some others get it, but...

    Cooney defense

    Every player on this team plays very hard. Singling Cooney out for his effort is exactly what it appears to be. Saying he played better than MCW is like an SNL spoof on white fandome. But on this board, Craig Forth is better than Fab Melo and Andy Rautins was our "best ever top of the zone...

    Cooney defense

    Outrageous because "effort" was the only insane "we love white people" buzz word that I hadn't yet seen used for Cooney, and then you used it to say...he outplayed MCW. That's crazy like beans man, like crazy beans.

    Dion Waiters will be Rookie of the Year

    No this is absurd. Dion is one of the worst defenders, right now, in the NBA. He has great hands and tools (other than height) to be a great defender, but he is atrocious at present. His block and steal rates are also down, as his athleticism has not yet translated to the man-to-man schemes. He...

    New Whitlock column on Fine Case...

    Another absurd thread of Bernie apologists. There was never likely going to be any charges, because of the State SoL and the limited Federal jurisdiction, considering that almost all of Davis's allegations were in-state. This has always been understood, and even Whitlock states that the...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    No one disputes that the age of Bobby Davis, and other such crucial details regarding criminal guilt are unresolved, and in the criminal context, I am glad we have the presumption of guilt. In non-criminal contexts, however, it is irresponsible to pretend to be clueless as to what Morris could...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    No one was saying that there was anything criminally "dispositive" in the Laurie Fine tape. By definition, if there was anything criminally dispositive, Fine would be guilty: such is the meaning of the word. Whether or not certain evidence is given dispositive weight is decided by the finder of...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    No, that's Nittany Lion-esq spin. Read the press releases, Syracuse fired Bernie Fine for cause. The firing happened when the Laurie tape came out because the Laurie tape corroborates some of the allegations. That was the University's decision. No luck trying to reason with our Cuse brothers...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    Haha no, there is "civil law," and there is "administrative law," and most major University's are even governed by (not only their own internal "Statutes") State statutes, although this may not be true for a private school like Cuse.

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    In the civil, administrative, educational, and other arenas, there are other forms of misdeeds that are significant, but do not amount to "crimes." Syracuse University fired Bernie Fine for such a misdeed, after re-investigating the Bobby Davis allegations. No, not "every thing that everybody...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    No, Statutes of Limitations do not have any bearing on the legal concept of "relevance." Evidence can still be relevant, but the State would lack the jurisdiction to bring charges on such evidence because there are no "common law crimes" in the American adoption of the British common law system...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    You are incorrect to say that there is no corroborating evidence: the Laurie Fine tape is corroborating evidence under legal and investigatory standards. It is simply not admissible, because it is hearsay. You are not speaking legally. It has been announced that charges would have been brought...

    Ron Morris refuses to rank SU basketball

    The facts regarding the weak internal investigation and shortcomings in reporting the allegations of Fine's relationship with the under-aged Bobby Davis are sufficient to warrant someone's protest in the rankings. It's a small thing to complain about considering the circumstances.

    Yup, a ton. Like Dion, MCW is a monster when he decides to go get the ball, and his steals will always be points.

    I learned nothing from watching that game.

    I think we can take away a few things: (1) BMK might be a lock for 20+ minutes, a bit more than we might have thought; (2) Cooney might not be needed as a third guard as much as we might have thought; (3) our length looks even better on court than it does on paper; and (4) MCW might keep RAK and...
