As I'm sure you know, Fran is very adamant that he wants his assistant coaches to move in and make a name for themselves. He always so and so won't be here long. Contrary to that approach, last week Fran stated Gattis "will be with me for a long time". To me that sounds like he's Fran's guy.
Bigger mistake IMO than ERob. Hope I am wrong.
Yeah it's important that they get someone who played a significant amount this year who they know can steady the ship and at least be a game manager and give them a chance to win if he has to play a few games. That's probably an FCS kid.
Agree. I really can see the kid from West Carolina, his stats are insane but he is short, which might scare off other P4s who could otherwise give him a shot to start
Which is strange your OC would not given you a heads up his son wanted to come back. Maybe he knows but did not want it out to affect the portal.Not sure this will get approved. I would be his 7th year of college ball.
Syracuse head coach Fran Brown on Will Nixon’s intention to return: ‘First I heard about this’
During an interview on ESPN Radio Syracuse on Wednesday, Fran Brown said he was unaware that Will Nixon intended to return to the Orange next year.www.syracuse.com
Seems it was the first Fran heard of it on the radio show as well??
Did you watch him against Clemson? Guys pad stats against bad teams all of the time.
Solid disagree on Angeli. But bring in more QB’s who can play immediately for sure.
I don't disagree that we should be looking to upgrade QB if possible in the portal.
Kenny Minchey was ahead of Angeli on ND's depth chart. That's why Angeli transferred. How can you say he wouldn't be an upgrade? If anything, your comment proves my point.
I did. You're going to hand over the reins without question because of one decent game? By the way, Clemson isn't good this year.
I disagree as he started a little slow but was starting to make Kyle like throws that we need in this offense. He will be the starter for sure but we need to make sure the backup is very capable of winning games and I’m sure they are not gonna let what happened this year happen again. I think with Steve we win all but duke and Notre dame.
Unreal. Now Angeli is the next McCord? Yeah he “started slow” vs Tennessee then lit up UConn and Colgate.
I said he was making Kyle like throws. Throwing guys open and or just hitting spots that our receivers could catch it. Now with who is playing we are hoping the throws are within 5 yds of our receivers. Fran is going with Angelli whether u like it or not as he has said numerous times. He also doesn’t need to be Kyle if he is more efficient.
What’s your ax to grind here?
You’re basing your whole assessment of Angeli on a four-game stretch, two of which came against weak opponents. If he’s not facing a real QB battle in camp, we’re in trouble. And by the way, we don’t even play Duke next year so that tells me how much you really know.
I don’t have an ax to grind. I just want a winning football team. And I’m tired of the hype around Angeli. In the 3½ games he played, he didn’t show me enough to justify being handed the starting job. He should have to earn it in camp, not be crowned by default.
Well, he was leading the country in passing. Worth something. And you bad mouth UConn (never a bad thing), but they were 9-3 and beat Duke and BC.
Be careful, Comstock came here to fight the Angeli hype and kick tail, and he's almost out of Angeli hype to fight.
There it is again. "Leading the country in passing". Maybe that had something to do with the 382 yards and 5 TD he put against COLGATE. We should beat UConn every year. and they took us to OT. Go check out UConn's schedule and you'll see why they're 9-3.
Nobody has forgotten who we played when Angeli was QB. All P4 teams play lower level teams to start the season.
Steve will be given the reigns if he is healthy and better than the QB2 we bring in. Instead of worrying about him being handed the reigns, worry about him being healthy and about QB2 being viable
