Might get lost in this thread, but was at the airport last weekend and ran into a kid with a bunch of Syracuse football gear on.
Went up to him and asked him if he was a current player or former one, and he said he had played this past year. He was visiting an agent as his eligibility has expired.
Of course I asked him about Dungey and he said he could have come back at the end of this year but that the coaches didn't want to risk it.
Take it with a grain of salt, but that's what a member of the football team told me. Hope it is accurate.
