Coach Babers’s Show will be at the new Marriott Syracuse, (the former Hotel Syracuse). The first show will be Wednesday night at 7PM because the game is Friday, (the show will normally be two days before the next game). They will be in Shaughnessy’s Irish Pub, which can be accessed from the street.

This article contains the schedule:

You can also listen to the show live each week on the Syracuse IMG Sports Network and Cuse.com. Wednesday's show will be on 99.1 FM and 97.7 FM, as well. The show will regularly air on 99.5FM (Syracuse)99.1 FM (Utica) and 1200 AM.”
You can also get it on: WGVA

There hasn’t been any change in the phone numbers, which last year were 315-424-8599 (local) or 1-888-746-2873. You can call to ask questions or submit them via Twitter at: #AskDino hashtag on Twitter

Or through Cuse.com, (the SU Athletic website):

(They have fixed it so it shows the Dino Baber's Show and it doesn't say that Jim Boeheim will be answering your questions. They do eventually get around to things like that.)



My Question(s)


“Coach, I tend to look at the bright side of things when they seem to be going wrong. When Louisville scored those three early touchdowns I said to myself: “We’re going to get a lot of practice returning kick-offs today: maybe we can break one”. We never did. We returned all 11 kickoffs but didn’t get beyond the 26 under our own power, (a penalty got us to the 35 on the first one). We’re averaging 17 yards a kick-off return this year and have returned only 4 of 15 punts for a total of 25 yards. We seem to have guys who could be dynamic kick returners. What can be done to spring them so they can make big plays?”

That question is no joke. I couldn't understand why Babers was so high on special teams after 2 shanked punts and an unremarkable kick return game.
 
1st question i would ask is have you considered any defensive scheme adjustments, other than for injuries. i am not asking WHAT THEY ARE, only if they have been considered.
 
Did Estime return most of the kicks?

Riley actually returned most of them.

I didn't notice if the original 2 were Estime and Philips (I know Estime was one of them).

But at some point in the game, the 2 back there switched to Riley and Fredericks.

He was referring to kick coverage and tackling on ST.
 
Babers dropping out of his show this week or does that mean an additional coach?
If the same as the last show McCloud will be interviewed for the last ten minutes as Ward was last week.

Gotcha, haven't had a chance to listen to the show yet.
