Can Bertrand leave Bama too? Kidding.. this would be awesome! I thought we needed another experienced DT. Now let’s get another corner (ND transfer?) and I’ll be feeling good about the depth and talent on defense.

Buffalo News article specially mentioned our Campinale and his interest in 2021. Could be their mistake…?

Buffalo News article this morning mentions potential candidates. Two with Syracuse connections. Dino and… Nunzio. Apparently Nunzio wanted job in 2021. If offered, I’d think Nunzio would take it unfortunately.

Offensive linemen in the portal are like gold. So much competition for every OL who puts their name in. Even if average career at lower tier school.

Couldn’t agree more. I am from WNY, but I lived in Monmouth County and Jersey City after school and I loved living in both for different reasons.

The Canisus HS freshman RB looks to be the biggest Upstate recruit in sometime. National offers already.

Quote from Buffalo News article posted above: “Thomas will play wide receiver for the Orange. McDuffie (Bennett HC) told The News that newly named Syracuse coach Fran Brown will honor not only Thomas’ scholarship offer and commitment but will stand by offers made to Bennett’s Noah McDuffie and...

Has anyone seen or heard anything on Ja’Meer Thomas? I’d hate to break the Buffalo pipeline that Dino had finally started to develop.

Knew this was coming… I think it’s a great OOC game

Trying not to get caught up in this after i embarrassed myself in the Mullen thread …

Hearing we may have a B12 team added to our schedule next season … a return to upstate ny for a well respected coach.

Seeing what Mo Linguist has (or hasn’t really) done at UB gives me some pause on Fran. Great recruiter that made jump from positional coach to HC. Hasn’t worked out great there. We shall see how it turns out here. The early returns on Fran are great. Interesting that UB football and SU...

No thanks…. Great kid from Buffalo area. Just not sure he is an ACC QB.

As a lifelong Bills and Cuse fan, love this.

Trying to stay hopeful along this ride. Say this dream becomes reality.. Geoff Collins his DC? Did well as HC at Temple. Not so much GT. Hevesy OC? I know Mullen fired him at UF but maybe they can reunite. They had been together for basically their whole careers. Hevesy was old Cuse GA and...

Heard it too. Mullen just laughed. No denial?

Please make this happen. It would be a huge statement by the University and the booster community to the college football world. I’m dreaming, please don’t wake me up…. I was sold on Chesney but Mullen was always the best option. I had just told myself that Mullen didn’t want to come here...

With the money you save on head coach, use it for big name recruiter? Fran Brown— Co-DC, Associate HC a la Monroe @ Minny…

He will need experienced coordinators if he gets the job. Any thoughts? His 2022 OC, Chris Smith (former UB GA), is ast OL coach with Giants. Seems like logical choice as OL coach. Current OC Dean Kennedy (UofR grad) just finished first year. Better suited for QB coach it seems. Opening for...

Falling in love with Chesney.. Holy Cross was not good when he got there … knows how to recruit NE … Leipold came from D3

Dan Mullen. Established P5 head coach. What he did at Miss St. really intrigues me. Syracuse GA. NE born. If he wants to coach again …

Congrats to you and your wife! We are also on our honeymoon (just in Mexico). No major time change issues but My wife already agreed to no excursions/plans between 11-2 on our last day. We met in a common room at SU… so it feels kind of full circle. LGO!!!

Why I said offensive.

RIP Big Mike. He was so dominant in that first Marrone season. Paulus just threw it up to him. I believe he was the last offensive su player to score a TD in the NFL.

One of my favorite days of the year.. optimism abound

Perry’s is based in Erie County, so it would make sense from that perspective too. Home town kid does good good at the state school.

I think More was in social media picture yesterday. Standing between Shrader/Cruz and Wohlabaugh in huddle.

You should start a podcast!

Who knows what the circumstances were but this is interesting. Bleich and Ellis both injured? More and Cruz on left?

So sick of holier than thou ND. Either join or leave. ACC gave you place to play in 2020 and home for your Olympics. Funny thing is, ND will chase the money and join B10 in next ten years…

When does practice start? Can’t wait to see fall roster with updated weights … I know, I have a problem.

Can’t wait to see Clement develop. He and Perry could be difference makers. So nice to have in-state kids that we are all excited about.

The hay is never in the barn

Great post.

I had such high hopes for Carter. Didn’t he steal Nassib’s TV?

Upstate HS basketball icon. Glad he came to Syracuse and not Duke. Have to wonder where he’d be if he accepted that Tulane FB offer. I always felt he could have been a G5 D1 QB. Solid player but was miscast here. Never was going to be a great ball-dominant point guard at ACC level. JB’s iso...

Are Sparrow and McDonald on the sideline? Wondering what is up with them. Figured they’d be a big part of defense next year.

Jobity 2.0… I love it. Cuse has to develop DL (and hope they don’t transfer).

Soon, we will have several NYS guys playing important roles. It will help with “National” NY recruits like this. We are re-establishing relationships with power house programs. It’s like the Anselmo days.

Let the big dogs eat

I agree completely. I have always thought that SU should do with ESF and Upstate what Cornell did with the Ag School. I think it helps SU (for reasons you state, plus ESF is a great school) and makes the “SU SUNY“ degrees more nationally relevant than they are currently. Unite the hill.

LOVE THIS! i don’t know what brought this on but I love this new recruiting strategy of targeting underrated but talented upstate kids.

Same here. I know it’s silly too. But there is something about a guy from an overlooked state (from football recruiting standpoint) succeeding in their “home” program.

Maybe NYS recruiting was part of Wildhack’s end of year meeting topics?

Looks like a shot of the first team offensive line... Left to right: Berg-Davis-Vet-Bleich-Servais. not surprising. Hopefully Vet has improved

Absolutely no inside info but reading tea leaves ... Tyrell Richards opting out? No socials appearances and Dino said LB was experiencing same issues as RB. Add to that — Jones, a younger player, getting 1st team reps at his position and the media opportunity. I’m thinking we don’t see him...

Shafer never won 10 games in a season here. Even if Dino has only done it once — it gives him more rope.

Dino is so much more than football wins and losses to this university. He conducts himself —and his football program — with dignity and class unparalleled in my time following college sports. And it’s not easily done. It takes unwavering commitment to principles despite external pressure to win...

He will be a hit with a few sororities on campus

My way too early uneducated guess on the 2-deep: SDE: Black Tuzama/Okechukwu NT: Bear Rhino/Harper WDE: Kingsley Linton SLB: Richards (need numbers at LB and he moves well enough) Cantu-Arlkin MLB: Wallace Kpogba WLB: Jones Trotter Otto: Jonas Colely CB: Iffy Stritz CB: Trill G...
