Gameday

[DPCuse]

ESPN Gameday getting ready to do a story in locker room talks. Dino's speech will be part of that. It's on in a few minutes.

 

[Geode]

Was cool to an ESPN Game day segment going to break and highlighting the post game speech from last week. Full segment coming up soon and it looks like Babers will be getting more than just a mention.

A little tease...

This speech has longer legs than my first 3 wives combined! amazing PR

A little tease...

Macky MacPherson has clearly bought in - great reactions from him throughout the speech.

 

[texascpa]

It's been "coming up" for over an hour so far.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Guess it's a pretty good thing when ESPN is using your team's locker room speech as a hook, lure for their Game day show.

 

[pacusewife]

"Whose tailgate?" Lol

That was pretty good. I liked Narduzzi's "We don't need a stinkin' game ball" and whips it across the room.

 

[Jake]

That sure beats the last time we were featured on ESPN game day. That was the dreaded 2005 segment on "what has happened to the Syracuse football program"?

"The British are coming...The British are coming..." ? :noidea: ?

 

[texascpa]

"The British are coming...The British are coming..." ? :noidea: ?

That was hilarious. Still not sure it's relevance or if the WMU players understood the call.

"The British are coming...The British are coming..." ? :noidea: ?

Yeah, that was a little weird. His players looked equally confused.

I believe that was prior to Cuse-Penn State. My buddy was on the team. He said they were all watching in the hotel. Was really awkward.

BTW - Dont think that was 2005. We werent officially bad yet (i know we sucked that season, but it wasnt consistent yet. I think the segment was what turned out to be Grob's final year. 2007?

 

[Toga]

We will take all of your recruits now.

 

[cuse309]

Dino's first year on the job through 7 games

knocks off a nationally ranked ACC team
turns a putrid offense into a top 10 offense
turns Dungey into a top 10 QB
turns AET into a top 5 receiver
despite early concerns, brings in a defensive philosophy that is improving, and that players are "buying into."
lands a College gameday segment that involves something positive
delivers a postgame speech for the ages that goes viral, and gains national attention.

All of this in his first 7 games, with players he didn't recruit.
I wish I had a DeLorean , and could fly into 2018 and see where we're at.

How many times should you beat Akron?

It was 2008 after getting crushed by Akron. It was an embarrassment on The Express's premiere weekend/PSU blowout.

it was 2008, just youtubed it. But there was a shorter piece that was done a couple years earlier...that wasn't a full 7 minute piece...but it first noted that we had slipped to a 10-loss program.

"The Express" was going to be a huge program booster but G-Rob laid such an egg that it had minimal impact.

That old "spring-in-my-step, looking forward to Saturday's game", is now back- win or lose!
Here in Charlotte I've had folks ask me all week about that speech. We're on our way, boys!

Yep I really wish that film came out a year later, Marrone's first team would not have shamed the legacy of Ernie and Cuse football

Kirk just picked Cuse as his upset special of the week.
