I’m not struggling for anything- let’s get that out of the way first.

That said, I’ve watch a lot of football and played collegiate so I know just a little about the sport.  I also have close ties to the program.

Unless your dumb, blind, or ignorant you cannot justify comparing anything from this teams current status and anything Dino Babers did.

I never once supported Dino’s recruiting classes or over inflated what the realism was.  Why, it was never worth it!

I know what true talent is, I know how coaching develops talent, and I know what culture does.

Here’s the bottom line- I bit on all the negative bull with predictions but realistically you can’t give an honest assessment or prediction until the week before you kick off.  That said- it’s much more likely this team finishes with 8 wins than it does fewer than 6!

I don’t care about the schedule on paper-  I look much deeper at it.  Tennessee was a very inconsistent team last year and to me that shows a combination of coaching and lack of culture (did you see those things mentioned earlier?).  Cristabol is a JOKE, and ALWAYS buckles as seasons progress.  I’m not going to waste time to go game by game to appease negativity.

I’ll leave it at this- don’t miss the opportunity to enjoy what Syracuse has-  it’s something much bigger than some fans realize!
