    Class of 2021 QB Kyle McCord (NJ) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (12/17/23)

    I think he almost took a late visit here after he had committed to Rutgers

    And the tough teams in SU’s division actually have national championships since joining. What’s the Big 10 have, one NC from OSU?

    Adam Weitsman announces NIL plans

    I may be wrong but as far as boosters go he comes across as more Nevin Shapiro than T Boone Pickens.

    Adam Weitsman announces NIL plans

    Paying for naming rights for a building is a little different than being all over the media for giving vague plans to pay $1 mil to a 5 star recruit. You know that though.

    Adam Weitsman announces NIL plans

    He seems to be using the promise of NIL payments to promote his brand but how are the players promoting his personal brand or recycling business? He may consider himself a business, but I don’t think promoting a person is within the spirit of NIL.

    Adam Weitsman announces NIL plans

    I don’t follow football or basketball recruiting as much as I used to, but exactly what did he do for recruiting/NIL? As far as I can tell, his donations were basically payments for his box and floor seats so he could show off for the people he brought to games and get attention to increase his...

    Ha! Imagine any successful coach with options choosing to hitch their wagon to Schiano. There’s no way any of his assistants actually enjoy working for the guy and his record speaks for itself.

    I was trying to think of which game that was. I remember the Miami coach saying something like “if x happens, the punter is taught to run”.

    Todays guest: Pete Davidson

    I‘d imagine this would leave a bad taste in anyone’s mouth. Then the grandstanding DA goes ahead and helps prove his point. Pete Davidson Accused Police of 'Hunting' Him. The Syracuse D.A. Wasn't Pleased.

    DO article on NJ recruiting

    Marrone should have been the perfect coach to clean up in NY. From the city, SU alumnus, constantly visitin/doing camps in the city. But if I remember correctly, the coaches were thrilled to send their borderline kids up here but always pushed their blue chip players to the big schools. In the...

    What I Expect From Syracuse Football: A Community Sound Off

    Imagine how bad the team would be if Dino wasn’t so secretive. At this point I just want to feel like we’re building a solid program that gets better each year. Basically I want to have hope in SU football again.

    Tucker on 44

    I don’t think there’s been any indication that he would leave and I really hope he stays (understatement of the year). BUT if this did happen I wouldn’t hate it if he wore 44 there. I’d at least get a good chuckle out of that.

    It's time...

    I don’t want to get rid of Dino because he’s put together a really solid team and coaching staff and we are more likely to hire another GRob or Shafer than another Marrone. It does really bother me that he won’t address his biggest problem in game management. According to him he never makes...

    Dino's Game 7 Press Conference for Clemson: 11 AM

    That was my biggest issue. If they were just going to play soft and basically give Wake the 10 yards back (with the chance of them getting more) why not just accept the penalty?

    WF attendance and noise

    I wish they would start ringing those chimes the second the offensive player goes down and third down starts. I think someone said this earlier but it really does bring out a Pavlovian reaction when the chimes ring. Unfortunately they don’t usually ring them until the other team has already...

    The View From 331: Liberty

    I have very strong feelings about this nacho situation. As far as I’m concerned the nachos grande with jalapeños and double cheese were the best food option in the Dome and they’ve totally ruined it.

    So Babers is sold on Shrader?

    Tommy is the same age as like six NFL starters and he struggles in what is supposed to be a simple offense to ”get”. I don’t think it’s the physical skills that hold him back. I think this team needs an RJ Anderson type QB and I think that‘s Shrader

    Thoughts on DOME Upgrades and Gameday Experience

    They have to fix the nacho situation. I got a $9 nachos grande expecting the delicious dome nachos with jalapeños and double cheese. Instead I got a handful of stale chips and a small container of Tostitos cheese.

    B1G officials are garbage

    They were absolute trash big 10 homers. Whenever Rutgers got a penalty they called a soft offsetting one on SU. And that “fumble” wasn’t even close. I don’t know how Dino didn’t get himself kicked out after that flag on him.

    The all-inclusive Rutgers dumpster fire thread...

    I’ve said it before but this is a good week to bring it up again. Their dream season ended with them winning the same bowl game Scott Shafer won and their best Big East finish was a tie with SU (and two others?). A real powerhouse program.

    Under-appreciated Players from Cuse Past

    The one that keeps coming to mind is Paulus. He saved Nassib from a beating but it’s also kind of amazing that he started at QB for a D1 school after not playing for four years. He played pretty well too.

    RB Jawhar Jordan in the transfer portal

    Imagine how boring sports would be if the only information fans got was press releases from organizations and whatever players wanted to put on Twitter or Instagram. Nobody would be held to account for anything and we wouldn’t have those amazing long form human interest stories or books.

    Parking question (overnight)

    My group tailgates in the lot on the corner of Harrison and University and I’ve never had any issues leaving my car overnight. We used to be able to pay the day of but now it’s season passes. You might be able to get individual game passes from the school though.

    Their recruiting rankings might be higher but that doesn’t mean they’re getting better players. They just have their own guys making the rankings. I’ve said this before but Schiano’s biggest win is worse than Babers’ biggest win and their biggest bowl win (after their dream season) is no...

    Is the big 10 all that?

    The Big 10 always seems to be overrated in the beginning of the year in both football and basketball. All of the good to mediocre teams are ranked preseason so in conference play they either get a boost for beating a ranked team or they don’t get downgraded much for losing to a ranked team...

    New OL Coach: Mike Schmidt from SDSU

    A coach can’t just take players with them. But if the players want to go with the coach, and there’s room on the other team... It’s like if a coach is an SU alum, gets a head coaching job in the NFL, then takes all of his assistants that he wants with him.

    Mark Coyle on 60 Minutes

    If we’re only keeping sports that are profitable how long is it before the only men’s sports are football and basketball (and in SU’s case, maybe lacrosse)? It seems like the majority of profit comes from conference payouts and while olympic sports are part of these conference, it all gets...

    Class of 2021 WR Umari Hatcher (VA) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (12/16/20)

    It’s not going to win any awards but definitely a fun way to kill an hour and a half. For a sequel that was made like 30 years after the most recent one, it could have been a lot worse.

    Syracuse football players sit out first practice with coronavirus concerns

    It’s a sham because legitimate colleges don‘t act like a tax exempt front to direct money and power to the president and his friends. I’m sure there are some good programs there, although personally I would be skeptical of a science degree from Liberty.

    Syracuse football players sit out first practice with coronavirus concerns

    It has nothing to do with politics. Most of the people running ACC programs and college football in general are very conservative and it’s my favorite sport. Liberty is an entirely different animal. I’ve posted this before but there’s nothing good going on at that “university“...
