Didn't get that out of it. I think TD is a guy with a ton of confidence and probably came at him hard (and by all reports seems to be right there). Competition can do that. His comments on Amie were easier to make as he's further back in the pecking order. Also - very excited for both Amie and Tommy.

I was surprised by his DeVito comments. It's a little disingenuous to say DeVito hasn't done it in live action and Amie is the QB of the future (even though he also hasn't done it in live action).
Oh well. If that's the worst that comes of a 4 part story after spending days with a local reporter then it's a tempest in a teapot.

Well the hype around tommy is bordering irrational at this point. While Dungey could’ve worded it better, he’s not wrong.

Dungey must be beyond sick of answering the same questions. He makes a very obvious point, we are praising a kid who has yet to step on a college football field. It is one thing to do it in practice, or without pads on, like Dungey mentioned. Put yourself in his shoes, he is about to be the most productive QB in 'Cuse history and he is constantly being asked about how good his backup is... I do not blame him for speaking the truth. I wish we all would just appreciate the greatness we have in front of us.

99% of the reason he is asked how good's his backup is because he has missed so many games, it matters. I though his comments were confusing, DeVito never tested no game experience but Aime will be best with even less college experience??????

I doubt anyone here has the answer to this but, is Eric related to former professional motocross/supercross champion Ryan Dungey? They both follow and comment on each other’s instagrams but one comes from Minnesota and the other is from the Pacific Northwest.

Love Dungey, but surprised he made the Amie comments on the record. Wonder if he regrets it after seeing it in print. Probably should've phrased it "Devito looks good, but also keep your eye on Amie". Would get the point across w/o possibly offending a teammate

“Eric Dungey once showed me a video of him making love to my wife, and it was the most beautiful thing I ever saw!”
“One time I was with Dungey in the back of a pickup truck, along with a live deer. Dungey goes up to the deer and says, ‘I’m Eric Dungey! SAY IT!’ Then he manipulates the deer’s lips in such a way as to make it say, ‘Dungey’ … It wasn’t exactly like it, but it was pretty good for a deer!'”

Finally Dungey takes me to a vacant lot and says, ‘Here we are.’ We sat there for a year and a half and sure enough someone constructs a bar around us. The day they opened we ordered a shot, drank it, and then burned the place to the ground. Dungey yelled over the roar of the flames, ‘Always leave things the way you found em!'”

Thanks! Was this in an article or something? Clearly don’t pay attention to all of them.

Insecure?
I wouldn't see where he'd regret comments either. Why would Tommy D be offended?
I mean come on. He's a 22 year old playing a sport that requires ultra-competitiveness... I'm still looking for a false or inaccurate statement from him.
People are way too sensitive.

I’m just going to guess the hyper-emotional state leading to reading way too much into Babers tone and Dungeys comments are from Orange withdrawal, which will luckily be cured Friday. Football scurvy. That’s what’s happening here.
asked about his back up in addition to being asked about whether he can actually play more than 8 games a year

Agreed -- weakest installment of the four, and the most poorly constructed of the articles in the series.
I don't consider it a big deal and reasonable minds can certainly differ - your take is could very well be spot on. I would just expect more polish and leadership from a senior who has been a four year starter. He's usually very good at that kind of thing.
"I'm really excited about the future of the QB position at Syracuse. I'm looking forward to an outstanding season and I know that whoever I pass the baton to will keep this program on an upward trajectory. I get to be with these guys every day in the weight room, the QB room, and there is an incredible hunger to compete and improve each and every day. I have every confidence the guys will bring their best in the offseason and I know that whoever the coaches choose to take snaps next year will be well prepared and ready to lead the team to victory. The future is bright, and I will be cheering them on."
Can you imagine if DeVito was asked about Dungey and he said something like, "Eric is a great QB, but he has to realize that he is not a linebacker back there. It's one thing to throw a quick out, but this isn't Madden and sometimes you have to actually go through your progressions. It's a different world."
Dungey needs to not be discussing the weaknesses of his teammates in the media. By all means do it behind closed doors. But let the coaches publicly comment on what individual players need to improve in, should they feel the need to say so. It is especially bad because the Madden comparison is a mind blowingly stupid comparison to make. It is one thing to say something like "all he needs is a little seasoning and he'll do great". It is quite another to compare it to playing a video game vs. playing actual football. Lets not forget who rescued Alabama and won a national championship last year. I guess fellow Elite 11 finalist Tua Tagovailoa is just a really really really good Madden player.
I don't know. Like I said, I don't take it as a big deal. It is a snippet relayed by a reporter on what, honestly, feels like a forced 4th installment of a series. It might be lacking context, or might have come out wrong and sounds worse than what he intended. It is a single data point. It doesn't change my opinion of Dungey or anything. But - as written - I stand by what I said - it comes off as petty and insecure.

It does come off as insecure. By all reports, Devito has been nipping at his heels all camp. If Devito gets the chance to play early on and impresses, Dungey's margin for error may be that much more slim with a legit FBS QB in the waiting.

Syracuse.com got a bunch of you guys hook, line and sinker. They want a QB controversy.
I'm not sure how you got that from the article. ED actually stated that TD is a great qb but lacks game experience.
His assessment of Chance was clearly based on the kid's overall talent/potential. Btw, from what I've been told...the coaches agree with ED's observations. As Phat mentioned in a different thread, don't be surprised if Aimee pushes TD for the starting job next year.
"By all reports,..."
I really hope you're not referencing anything that Bailey has written.
