2025 Spring Schedule/Game

[310Pigpen]

Looks to be April 12th.

 

[Dinkyspond]

Pena=Julian Edelman. Reminds me so much of him, a clone.

That thought has come to my mind as well. I think he is going to make it in the League and do pretty well. But luckily, after another year excelling at SU.

Seems weird there are two practices after the spring game. Is that common now?

Yes I think coaches are doing this to get time to work on / correct mistakes they see on film.

I am sure that Dome availability is a factor, as UNC lax is the 26th.

Metallica on the 19th.

Metallica on the 19th.

Metallica should play the spring game. Let’s get creative!

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Metallica on the 19th.

Joel and Sting the night before the Spring game too.

That‘s going to be a quick turnover for Sala & Co.

They do a great job at turnover compared to 10-12 years ago when I foolishly helped a few times. Tough work.

I'm sure they ever had another shot at renovations they would try and figure out a way to roll the temp floor out automatically. That would save a lot of time.

 

[Offthedome]

That's the first Saturday of local schools' spring break. Hmm. That could lose a few attendees.

 

[CapitalO]

I would not let Billy Joel or Sting leave until they both made a nice contribution to our NIL. fund.

We are so lucky to have him for next season. I would have to imagine he would be a very hot prospect in the portal. Quite frankly, he probably would be impressing like the other guys at the senior/shrine bowl events if he declared this year. He clearly bleeds orange and wanted to be a captain here before moving on.

Agreed. Pena doesn't have super measurables for WR regarding height but he has everything else you could want in a slot guy. He is not a complete burner but is still very fast and can get plenty of YAC, has RB skills in the open field, plenty of strength for his height, very reliable hands, great route runner, good at contested catches and is physical going up for the ball, good blocker, great personality, team first guy and seems like a very hard worker. Would likely be a QB's favorite target and safety option. Super reliable. He will certainly be the No.1 option next year and even if his stats don't end up quite as good as in 2024 due to QB play and defensive focus, if he can prove he can produce again he should be a very solid draft pick. For Pena there is a bit less risk in his final year as his 2023 redshirt year was due to an injury so he could always get a medical year if he played in 4 or less games in 2025 due to injury.

 

[vegasnick]

Metallica on the 19th.

Billy Joel on the 11th

 

[kcsu]

Joel and Sting the night before the Spring game too.

On the sideline as assistant coaches for head coach of the Blue team Adam W!

 

[CuseLegacy]

 

[OrangeXtreme]

The new format...

 

[JRHEETER]

Sucks but I hope we follow the pack and cancel ours for the public as well

 

[Libero2]

I don’t believe the “pack” is canceling their game. Some schools are.

Fran has said we are here to compete and that he wants us to have the best culture around and DART will be what keeps players who want to be here, here.

If we (and more importantly Fran) believes any of that, he will see the spring game as an opportunity to hype up the program generate news in the offseason and keep giving donors a reason to give us money so we can become top dogs.

Fran doesn’t strike me as the kind of leader to do so scared of what might happen, but instead the kind of guy that is excited about what an opportunity can do for him to help make some better things happen

 

[llandz]

Hopefully they can handle it as I just decided I will stay in town until Sunday for this. I have not made my plane reservations yet. Hopefully they don't change it to Sunday after I book everything.

Well said. I agree.

 

[PAcuse]

At this point totally fine with cancelling if they need to.
It was nice when they did more activities and/or former players there.
Just watching a fancy scrimmage is really not that much fun.
