    Class of 2025 WR Ziyyon Bredell (PA) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (4/22/2024)

    As Benjamin Franklin once said, "if we can keep them" ;)

    2024 Spring Practice

    Drake? Wasn't he the investigator that worked for Perry Mason?

    Good to hear his voice

    It was, "belief without evidence," that was the last straw with me. If I've learned anything important over my 77 years it's that I don't accept anything without evidence. These are words that you would expect from a con-man.

    Class of 2025 DE/LB Sharlandiin Strange (PA) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (1/27/24)

    Yes, now a Slippery Rock joke. However, once upon a time Slippery Rock, a very good Div 3 team, was rumored to play PSU. However, never happened. ;)

    Class of 2026 RB Sy'eer Coleman (PA) Offered

    Just watched his soph year footage... twice, to make sure I was watching a soph that looked like a senior on the field. If this kid can get a step faster, watch out!! He could do that by running sprints for the track team in the spring. Love this offer.

    Class of 2020 OL Jalen Travis (MN) Offered / Grad Portal from Princeton to Iowa State

    I wanted this guy more than any of the OL portal players for a variety of reasons, and not all of them had to do with football. I hope he signs.

    Class of 2018 OL Kurt Danneker (PA) Grad Portal from Ohio to Baylor

    Please stop posting this. It's confusing in that it states he is a commit.

    Worst ESPN broadcast ever.

    How can you tell it was the worst? I mean everything they air is done so poorly... and purposely!

    Class of 2023 OL Joshua Miller (VA) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (12/23/23)

    "Wanting to run?" I guess that's why he has brought in 6 freshman receivers and 2 portals so far. That's 8 new faces plus the ones we keep. Looks like a passing offense to me, especially with our new QB.

    Class of 2024 QB Trever Jackson (FL) Committed to FSU

    That, and an offensive line that blocks.

    USF / Boca Raton Bowl Gameday...

    Serious question: have these guys spent the day drinking hard liquor and chasing women?

    I don't know about the rest of you guys and gals, but I'm going to light up a cigar and pour myself a Tanqueray and bitter lemon.

    Class of 2018 OL Kurt Danneker (PA) Grad Portal from Ohio to Baylor

    If BC offered, that's a good sign. They have a good history with OL recruits.

    Class of 2021 DB Tyreek Chappell (PA) Staying at Texas A&M

    I think one of those years was a covid year which means he has two years of eligibility?

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

    Perhaps because MSN stands for Mistaken Sports News.

    Class of 2024 CB Josh Philostin (FL) Committed to Indiana

    A philistine has no place on our campus anyway.

    I recall seeing King post on this site that he would release his choice on Dec. 19. Now, if that wasn't an error, signing begins Dec. 20.

    Of course, I think I felt the bustin' on your initial response. Please forgive me for the tardy response, I've been so fixed on the following each offer here that I only, just now, found the above response, and your sharing. You have my deep sympathy. I am 77 and likely was on campus doing my...

    LOL, I always heard it as offence sells tickets, defense wins games. Same idea though.

    Class of 2024 TE Jamie Tremble (GA) COMMITTED / SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (6/17/23)

    LOL, ya gotta have faith! Unfortunately, the "evidence" is that college football is no longer an amateur sport, and hasn't been for a while now. I've believed that compensation, in addition to a scholarship, was needed. However, the present NIL system has made them professionals! I'm pretty sure...

    I wonder how much we paid to get Fran Brown?

    We've never been elaborate spenders to get talented coaches, and it seems to me that is required to win like most on here hope for. I know our new coach is young and a great recruiter, especially with Georgia, but how much do we value him in dollars? And, If he's successful, can we keep him...

    True Frosh Participation Report

    The guys with 5 should be playing every game now, since they are over the limit and should be getting as much on field learning as possible, given that we will lose the rest of the games anyway.

    SU opens +3 vs BC

    The present line is SU -2.5 and ESPN has us as 75% vs 25%. I'm not sure why, but if we lose this game we will most likely end up 4-8.

    “I don’t think about that no more,” Cruz said. Which of course is a double negative, meaning he still thinks about it. It's also an embarrassment to the academia of S.U. and more suited to Louisville.

    Dino's Game 9 Press Conference | BC

    Uh oh... he has "faith" again, "belief without evidence." We see where that has got us. Personally, I'd rather see effective coaching!

    Utica Pioneers #22 at Cortland Red Dragons #17 10/7/23

    Brockport has only one loss, to the same team that beat Cortland, #11 Susquehanna. I watched the game (I played 1963-1967) and Brockport led until the last minute or so, and lost 6-5 on a field goal. Susquehanna beat Cortland 38-35 and remains undefeated. I'll be watching the game Saturday too...

    Dungy just threw Babers under the bus.

    This is the third and last time I'm going to say this. When there is so much wrong with your team, you get beaten as badly as any historical beating in school history, not once, but three weeks in a row, and you get an open week, you use every minute you have to work on improving what is wrong...

    Can't watch anymore of this.

    Lately, I can't get the story that Dino tells about his near death car accident experience out of my head. I've had a half dozen near death experiences myself, may be why. But Dino thinks that God has some purpose for him as the reason why. I simply thought I was really lucky. I have no idea if...

    4 and 3 with a bye week and 5 more games

    CRUMP (intransitive, US, medical slang) (of one's health) to decline rapidly (but not as rapidly as crash).

    4 and 3 with a bye week and 5 more games

    I suffered through the FSU game followed by a lot of channel switching yesterday through the evening. I don't believe we will be able to win the three road games left. VT, Pitt, and GT will all be a hope and a prayer. That leaves BC and Wake, neither of which will be a pushover. I believe the...

    Clemson game

    The main difference between this team and prior teams with Dino is depth. With the injuries we have suffered, except for Dino's ranked season, the results indicated the lack of depth as the main cause. How healthy we emerge from the Army game and how deep our depth is will determine the results...

    Orangeyes Daily Articles for Monday for Football

    "Garrett Shrader threw for 184 yards and ran for a game-high 123 yards and 3 touchdowns to beat the Boilermakers for the 2nd straight year and improve to 3-0 this season." Did this guy even watch the game? That he can't read statistics is obvious!

    Jim Brown played Lacrosse, not basketball. Sutomcat already clarified Vic Hanson and Wilmeth Sidat-Singh.

    I could be wrong about this, but I believe Ernie Davis may have been the first to play both football and basketball at SU. I saw him play against Penn St. in the Onondaga County War Memorial and he dominated!
