    Very Disapponted...

    For whatever reason, I wasnt able to watch the game on Hulu Live. There must be some dispute with Hulu and Yes network. Last season YES was on Hulu. This season its not. I was reduced to watching the game on someones live feed from their tv. They talked all during the game as if they were a...

    Alan Griffin is real, and he's spectacular

    JB could have a really nasty team this year with the way Sidibe came on during the second half of last season and the ever versatile Marek gaining 19 pounds and not getting pushed around as much, and not having to play the center position as much, if at all. Throw in a little K Richmond, with...

    Bourama played through a broken shnozz

    I thought I read somewhere that we have another center transferring in next year. A guy from the Ivy League or something, maybe the Patriot League. Dont remember his name or school but he is supposed to have been dominant.

    Roland Williams

    Thanks for posting. I graduated from East High, Class of 1982, which was about 12 years before Roland came thru. Hes a class act. The last time I saw him was at the Irondequoit Applebees, about 12 or 13 years ago. I told him I graduated from East and he told me about a class reunion that was...

    Everyone Wave “Hi!” To UNC

    I honestly thought that would be us staring up at all the other ACC teams after getting smacked around by Virginia, Penn State and Oklahoma St. and how inept our team was. Watching college basketball is fun now, but it was scary at the beginning of the season. JB has turned it around it seems.

    OT- I Stewart.

    That is exactly his problem. He attended the elementary school that my wife works at, for at least 4 years. He is very close to several teachers in the building so he was often in the building before going off to college. My wife told me weeks before he committed that he wasnt going to attend...

    Hop getting shredded

    Reading how you talk about your "superior talent" and greater amount of "one and dones," one would think Washington was the program that is a perennial NCAA contender with 6 Final Fours and a NC, and top 5 in all time wins, instead of Syracuse.

    The GMAC comparison

    Those are great comparable stats. Girard seems to be more of a complete player being able to dribble in traffic and get to the basket and able to create his own shot. The thing that plagued Gmac thru out his career was that he couldnt create his own shot. But Gmac was more clutch in that he...

    Congratulations to Sean Lewis

    Last years odds on the number of SU wins for 2019 ranged from 4.8 to 7.2 or something like that. When I first saw it back in January, I thought those folks were on drugs. But they were on the money.

    Syracuse Football Documentary

    Great Find! I really liked the part of the clip that at the start of the second half, the starting QB Bill Hurley gets hurt and is out of the game. The backup QB comes in and promptly throws an INT near the goal line. That backup QB was non other than....RANDY EDSALL...

    Orangeyes Daily Articles for Thursday for Football

    Its obvious that they think they are still a talented team with Lamar Jackson at QB. I noticed that they picked Kentucky and Syracuse as wins even though those two teams had 10 win seasons this year. Dont know about UK but SU has a lot of talent returning, including potentially great QB that can...

    Chandler Jones was a Clue on Jeopardy

    The clue was : "In 2017 Chandler Jones Led the NFL with 17 of these" The answer is sacks, for those who dont know, lol.

    I met John Wallace leaving the Garden after UConn

    Met him at Famous Daves BBQ in Rochester in Greece back about 3 years ago. When my wife and I walked in to take our seat, he saw me all decked out in my Syracuse hoodie and hat. He had on a Knicks cap. I didnt recognize him at first and was wondering why this guy kept staring at me. When he got...

    Not that this matters, but hard to fathom we're not a preseason Top 10 team

    The 2003 NC team wasnt ranked until late February, I believe, and only lost 5 games the entire season. Im not worried about SU being highly ranked at this point. It will come soon enough.

    We have a roster

    So if the Orange were the tallest team in college basketball last year and one of those players (Marek) has grown an inch, this should cement our status as the tallest team this season, unless some other team had some giant recruits come aboard.

    Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

    I can see being an alumnus, but what I dont understand is why there are so many GTown fans in Rochester. I know 5 or 6 guys who are Gtown fans who have no connection at all to Gtown. Three of those guys are Upstate NY natives. They are all over 45 years old and african american. I think it has...

    Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

    I dont know where Isaiah Stewart will end up playing but I dont think SU has much of a chance with the kid from what I hear. My wife is an administrator at the elementary school that he attended in Rochester (MLK School #9). He always visits when he is in town because he has a close...

    Blue Bloods

    Theres an asterisk next to SU and a few others. At the bottom it says something about NCAA tourney vacated wins. So it seems that they already updated any wins from SU as part of its punishment.

    From the Duke Fan Forum...

    I dont know which board these quotes are from but I read the first 2 pages of Dukes 24/7 forum and they have a 5 or 6 page thread discussing the Syracuse game, and not one poster gives SU much of a chance. A couple did say anything can happen during the tourney, but still expect to win. They are...

    RIP Rollie Massimino

    Yes, I noticed that too. I loved that little guy and I loved watching that 85 championship scene where hes running out to the court looking for someone to hug after they beat Georgetown for the championship. then you see his team lift him up in the air and his little short arms are waving in the...

    Others Receiving Votes!

    I would not be surprised if one of the votes came from Justin Fuente, the Virginia Tech head coach, the way the Cuse manhandled his hokies and he realized that we have almost everyone coming back.

    People sure are stupid.

    Rochester is definitly a Syracuse town if you are talking college sports. Most folks, and I mean overwhelmingly, most folks in Rochester root for SU. There is no close second. I would say there are as many or more SU fans as there are Amerks and Red Wings fans.

    Watching the Louis Ville game replay

    Charlotte was 2-10 last season, while Colgate went 9-5 and went to the fcs playoffs. Colgate won their last 6 games before going to the playoffs. They would destroy Charlotte. Louisville's offense is very, very good, which is why its likely that they beat the Cuse. But they may be vulnerable in...

    Dino Babers: "We're Going To Surprise Some People"

    Babers has high expectations for Syracuse but he has been very careful about expectations his first year. So I was surprised to see him utter those words so matter of factly in the following video from TheACC.com site. This tells me that he thinks SU currently has the talent to run his offense...

    UVA used to own us I was told

    I like most of their fans and players. But I will never forget at about the 6:30 mark of the fist half when one of the Virginia players just threw the ball up in the air and it went in. that was when everything was going their way, and a Virginia bench player was on the sidelines with his head...

    Class of 2018 RB Dylan McDuffie (NY) Grad Portal from Ga Tech to Kansas

    I just ran into him and I think, his father and another kid today at the Roy Rogers at the thruway stop in Waterloo. They walked in while I was waiting for my order and I noticed his recruiting badge around his neck. I asked him if he was a Syracuse recruit and he said yes. I asked him what...

    Dino leads the way

    I believe Dino was listed first because the writer listed the Power 5 coaches in alphabetical order using their last name. Then the writer did the same thing for the G5 coaches, then the same for the FCS coaches.

    Class of 2016 QB Lindsey Scott Jr (LA) LSU /JUCO / Mizzou/Nicholls St/Incarnate Word

    Im just glad that we have a stable of good to serviceable quarterbacks who have the potential to step up when needed. Thats a far cry from when we had quarterbacks like Joe Fields, Perry Patterson and Adrien Dantley etc,,,

    Wow! Congratulations

    This is BONK. Wake had 280 yards the first half. and 134 yards the second half. But, even if you did dominate three quarters of the game. You didnt dominate the right quarter.

    University Of Buffalo New Coach

    I just realized that their new coach, Lance Leipold, has won 5 Dlll national championships since 2007. He has had double digit wins ever since 2007, sometimes getting 14 and 15 wins in a season. I believe that if you can coach, it will be manifested at any college level. Does anyone think this...

    I ran into John Wallace Friday Night

    Sarasota is my hometown, born and raised there, although I've lived in Rochester for about 40 years.. Didnt know anything about this event. It was clear to me that John Wallace Loves the Cuse. When I did ask if he was John Wallace, after said he was, he yelled at me "CUSE." He's a great...
