I remember him being a beast while watching his HS tape and I think he will put it all together this year. Stud.

Any chance he is moved to LB

Meanwhile, look at what the basketball team is fueling up on.

Syracuse has a basketball team?

Absolutely want to see what the S&C staff is doing. Apart from the freak injuries to the DL leading into the season, the team suffered bumps and bruises, but guys came back, and we got better throughout the season as a team - no late season collapse - and won the biggest game of the year right at the end. Whatever they are doing and teaching, it is working.

I know relatively it all ties in but i wonder if the more intense practices/conditioning, or even a combination with a different S&C program had to do with staying healthy for the most part. Then again could it just have been another 2018, fluke, where we weren’t scraping the barrel for healthy bodies come November? I lean the former, but we’ll find out this year with this meat grinder we have ahead.

I think better S&C certainly helped, but we did have a number of injuries, probably more on par with a normal year vs. the decimation we had in prior years. Think better depth helped us there. We lost a starting WR (not to an injury) and several starters on D for periods (Barnes, lost another member of secondary before season started, etc.) We were beat up pretty bad on DL, too. I think the fact that we finished the year stronger impacts how we view the injuries. We were definitely healthier on O than we had been in prior years.

I agree 100% with this.

We had plenty of injuries and lost the services of several players during the season. Coach Fran and his staff were able to build depth that hid many of the injuries.

In the secondary alone Barnes missed several games. Washington missed the entire season, Bellamy missed a couple of games, and Grant missed a game.

Others that missed time due to injuries.

• Defense; Wax, Jobity, Jauqez, Ingraham (season), Wilson, C. Simmons, Clark, Buxton, R. Perry
• Offense: Nixon, Hatcher, Gill, Ross-Simmons, Villari, Reed and Wohlabaugh,

I'm sure there were more. And many of the players played banged up. I've heard of several players who have had surgery after the season. One player is missing all of spring because he had both shoulders operated on. He missed the bowl game because of one and had the second one done not too long ago.

Depth and culture matter.

For Syracuse that’s a great year having a few guys missing a few games.

Looks like SU has a new nutritionist.

Hopefully those French Toast sticks have anabolic steroids in them.
