Is it wise to do this?

[hoopsupstate]

Take them to the top of Crouse College and give them a lunch tray. If they’re afraid to go down the hill, send them home?.

It snows in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Minnesota to name a few and we recruit against schools in those states. I think it’s a non issue. Students come from California, Texas, Florida, Georgia among other warm weather states and it doesn’t impact their decisions. Plus, we get much less snow in the recent past than we used to.
Money to players is much more impactful than snow in 2022!

I don't think it really matters.

Kids understand Syracuse is not in the Deep South. And it is always warm in the JMA Wireless Dome!

The recruits will see that Syracuse takes care of snow unlike the South where one inch of snow will paralyze a state for three days

I remember riding in an elevator and a woman told people that her daughter was accepted by Michigan and some idiot says "I hope she likes snow". What an moron, it's a fine education not a vacation.

That reminds me of the movie, "The Other Guys" as they're arresting the villain and one of the cops says, "I hope he likes prison food" and another cop yells out , "and d&#k!"

Nah, that's more of a State Penn crootin' vibe.

Too soon? Nope.
Not soon enough.

this point is so over exaggerated. It’s snows here, it snows in half of America too. It doesn’t make a difference, embrace it, it’s apart of our culture. People aren’t choosing Penn state, Ohio st., Michigan, etc over Syracuse because it snows here.

You only care about snow when you are a mediocre program. I doubt Michigan fans are worried about snow effecting their recruiting. And they play outdoors!!

It also snows in PA, VA and NC.

Miami was also throwing around bags back then to.

YOU come to SU to play football not worry about how much snow is on the ground.

I have heard that bull long enough. And, you are playing in the greatest university Dome there is.

Pity the recruit who has to stay away because of snow.

The best recruits shouldn't have to worry anyway. They're going to play for a blue blood program or some other place in the south. But, I have been to GA in winter and it was snowing and below freezing so it really doesn't matter does it?

View attachment 223246Should our director of recruiting draw attention to all the snow in Syracuse or do you think it doesn’t matter?

Don't hide the truth. Embrace the thrill and rush of Winter sports.

lol right

Recruit: I hear you guys get a lot of snow coach?

Dino: Snow? Nooooooo. Look at this Hawaiian shirt. You think you can have a closet full of these things in the SNOW?! Ohanna

Some people actually love snow; we have family friends from Zambia who just saw snow for the first time last weekend. Their kids couldn’t have been happier. Also Christmas is in 9 days, there are people in other parts of the country that would be delighted with snow this time of year. At least in theory they would.

I had no expectations for that movie, but enjoyed it, for the most part.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I think it can work to our advantage. All the other winter wonderlands can’t say they get to play inside. They see snow at SU and see how comfortable it is in the Dome. Big Ten schools can’t say that or other eastern schools.

I dont know that snow is really an issue to most kids.. its the cold that really gets people and we see less of that every year it seems..

With this thread title, I expected so much more.

Was expecting something like:

/ is it wise to do this?

// explains what ‘this’ is
(which is clearly unwise)

YES! A thousand times YES! I figured that CuseTroop would be all over that.

I really don't get the weather thing with 18-22 year old kids. I hate the cold now, which is why I live in Tampa, and previously San Diego. However, when I was a freshman years ago, I had fun with it. It's not like it's your final destination, just somewhere to be for 4 years (hopefully).

Heard Santa has some eligibility. Can play multiple positions on the line. And with the right commitment to S & C, sky is the limit. Smart move

He IS S&C
