That is a name I had already forgotten. I just searched him and found out that he transferred from Tennessee to Bowling Green prior to the 2014 season.

Messiah DeWeaver, I believe we can reach the morning light. Sidenote: He is 2016.

I did some research and kept it for my own nerdy records...until now. I was focused solely on Syracuse's recruits. How many 2-star and even 1-star and no-star recruits have been very successful for SU and/or the NFL? Quite a few examples: Ryan Nassib (2) Jerome Smith (2.5) Tony Fiametta (2)...

How was Nassib so successful? Afterall, he was only a 2-star recruit!

Within the past 2 days, 2 of SU's former star Running Backs have left (or been let go) from their NFL jobs as RB coaches. David Walker was with the Colts and Terry Richardson was with the Jags. In addition to their Syracuse roots, both have ties to the state of Florida. Terry Richardson is a...

Looking into the potential 2015 depth chart, I'm sure I'm not the only one who is concerned about the Safety position. We only have 2 returning scholarship players (Rodney Williams and Chauncey Scissum) and maybe only 1 player coming in (Christopher Frederick) since we've been reading that...

I'm very concerned about who is going to spell Ennis at the point if needed. This dude is going to be counted on heavily his freshman season. How many minutes per game do you think he will have to log? Though I don't expect it, I wouldn't be shocked to see Keita start at center with either...

I wish I could like this multiple times, because it is basically what I would have written in this thread had you not beat me to it. Nothing to lose = How could anyone not like the addition of Drew Allen (if it happens)?

He is certainly improved, and I feel like our best lineup has him in it (with MCW, Triche, Fair, & Southerland). BUT... Does he forget how tall he is sometimes? He almost always brings the ball down when he grabs an offensive board instead of just putting it back up - though I guess we...

I would also like to point out SU's recent success in signing WR's named Corey... Yet another factor we have going on for us with this guy!

Sounds like we certainly have A LOT going for us regarding KJ. West will be a senior during Williams' freshman year - at the same position, so he can basically take KJ under his wing. Long would be throwing the ball to him, at least in some practices, for as long as KJ is on campus (ideally)...

Hint: If you're ever curious when on that site, when you see a picture by the article but the little blurb does not tell you who the player is... Just click on "properties" for internet explorer or "view image info" for firefox; and the prospect's name appears in the path. So often I'm...

I also noticed that Myles Davis is not on the roster.

I don't think that one can classify Punky Brewster as a proven speed rusher. Dude had 1 sack. He had 8 tackles for losses; less than 1 per game. I think we will be fine with Trejo, Simmons, Welsh, or Manley in that spot.

I've seen all of the tapes from high school, and I do love what you see in Kimble's tape, as well as Wilson's. I just know that it's such a huge jump in the level of competition and it's so tough to predict how it's going to translate from low-level high school to major college football. I...

I would like to see Broyld redshirt in 2013 with a focus on QB. Give him this spring, fall of 2013, and 2014 spring to learn the new playbook inside and out - maybe the new coaching staff can get him to understand it better, though it is certainly his responsibility to learn it. After the...

One thing I've always thought that should happen to improve the flow of the game is that any foul committed by the losing team in the last minute should be an intentional foul - considering the fact that they are literally fouling somebody intentionally! I used to LOVE college basketball; knew...

Billy is my all-time favorite player; the reason I became a 'Cuse fan. My grandfather used to take me to watch Billy play in high school - wherever he ended up in college was going to become my favorite squad, so in hindsight I am so glad he chose to follow his brother to Syracuse. When I...

We need Preston Shumpert draining 3's, and Conrad McRae's inside presence.

I could see Ed Harris as Scott Shafer? Jon Favreau as Macky MacPherson. Has there ever been a look-a-likes thread for our own squad?

If there is this potential playmaker who could be a great QB if only he could grasp the playbook, then why not try to make the playbook easier to grasp? Ok, so I've been trying to dance around saying the words "dumbing down" the playbook because I definitely don't want to insult any player...

They both had to wait for the parent to sign. PS report stated that Jones' mother had to come down from Georgia! But yes, Estime is the one who is 20 years old.

This really stinks for Jones! I hope that his mom didn't make that trip from Georgia just to sign his LOI that no longer was valid. Gotta wonder if the staff didn't communicate this clear enough to him, or if Jones misunderstood. I was excited to have his athleticism on the roster. Now I...

Several stories like this! Here is blurb from Brett Favre's wiki page (the most reliable source of information there is ;)): After high school, Southern Mississippi offered Favre a scholarship (the only one he received). Southern Miss wanted him to play defensive back, but Favre wanted to...

I like the versatility here. He's about 6'3, 200 lbs, so if it doesn't work out at QB there are a lot of places he could end up - don't rule out OLB!

From an article regarding signees from Miami. Was posted today, but I believe was written yesterday: Carol City Carol City’s Simeon Thomas will be attending Louisiana-Lafayette. “Louisiana-Lafayette was a great environment,” said the 6-3 safety, Thomas. “My mom and my dad influenced me. They...

How great is it that they signed a kicker named Blewitt!!!! Almost as good as having a pitcher named Bob Walk (also played in Pittsburgh for the Pirates).

Here is a quick little study I just performed, comparing the ACC's recruiting rankings over the past 4 seasons to the on-field rankings during the 2012 season. Georgia Tech should have finished much worse than they did, while Miami, UVA, Maryland, and B.C. all underperformed. (hopefully, the...

In 2012, we were ranked 6 out of 8 in the Big East In 2011, we were ranked 6 out of 8 in the Big East In 2010, we were ranked 7 out of 8 in the Big East In 2009, we were ranked 8 out of 8 in the Big East

Yup, in his opening statement he commended the SU signees by saying that they all handled their announcements with class, rather than by throwing hats (makes throwing motion) of other teams to disrespect the other schools that were involved in their recruitment. Shafer also was classy...

Thanks for the research! 3 biggest needs for next year's class, in my opinion = RB, QB, LB Love to see that you have Howard, Davis, and Samuel listed with SU as the leader. 3 RB's (or Samuel at another position) next year to make up for the lack of any in this class would be sweet!

AWESOME rip on Spearman by HCSS during his press conf.!!!

Pretty crazy that the class is only one-tenth New Yorker in Williams and Scissum. This has to be a record-low in recent memory for in-state signees; not saying whether that may be good or bad.

Has Hodge signed yet? And has Singleton signed with Mizzou yet?

Party time! Excellent!

Maybe Kendall Moore is the type of guy that will be able to shed 10 pounds easier than gaining 20.

No ritual here, but I actually took a vacation day last year or the year before. Too busy today to take off - but not too busy to occasionally check up on things.

Were you saying that because there was no sticker on the brim of the Mizzou hat?

I too am quite disappointed that we're not landing Spearman. He moved to the very top of my must-get list following Carter's decommit. We are now incredibly thin in the category of young linebackers - just Washington and Hodge (provided of course that he signs tomorrow) from the last 2...

Wow, that's pretty douchey

Gotta think that there is at least room for: To hold onto Malik Brown, Reggie Spearman Kendall Moore Duron Singleton And one more that could have been Edwards, and might be but probably won't be Laray Smith. Will that spot get filled? Is there room for more than that?

Here's who I found with those names: http://allentrieu.com/ and http://www.linkedin.com/pub/d-j-slivka/33/780/570 So it very well may be a conversation between an Asian comedian and an Administrator in Training at Life Care Centers of America?

Here's how I saw it: I did see the Ravens defender with his hand grabbing Crabtree's jersey from the camera to Crabtree's back, but I also saw Crabtree pushing down on the defender's helmet from the camera facing Crabtree. What happened first? Was the defender grabbing Crabtree's jersey as...

I don't realize. I don't understand in twitter who is ever writing and to whom, or even who anybody is, and then even if I did know who it was and who they were writing it to, I would not understand what they are writing. Twitter to me is the most confusing thing in the world. But I am glad...

I'm with ya - I wasn't really trying to assign responsibility to 'Cuse OR the student. Anomander bottom lined it nicely by saying that there is just no guarantee that we'll see someone again who goes prepping, and so I have learned from past experience not to get too excited about commits who...

While they are certainly 2 different situations, they are both part of that 60%. In all of those cases, we had hopes that the player would make it to Syracuse the following year. 40% of the time, they did not. The 60% still means something - it means that we had roughly 10 guys committed who...

He may have been looking at my post - now with the Tucker correction the success rate is 60%, whether it's on the student academically or whether the student commits to a different school following his time at Milford, 60% is the recent success rate of keeping commits after they attend Milford.

Right on, tep, thanks for the correction.

Don't sweat it - thanks for sharing! As for the potential of Cooper going to Milford, it seems like SU has about just a little over 50% success rate in keeping the commits that go to Milford recently. Keeps: Ashton Broyld, Dyshawn Davis, Jeremiah Kobena, Myles Davis, Jermaine Pierce...

I have finally had the opportunity to watch Estime's film, and I gotta say he looks like he runs like a running back! Also looking at some of his hits on defense he looks like he packs some power. I am on board with the Tavon Austin comparison. By the way, does anyone know how to properly...
