He probably sought out CR and demanded to do a "spit-shake" handshake with him.


Anything to get out of having to deal with all the ish this week and next.

If he has to sit out can we promote Gilbert to interim HC and let someone else call the plays?

Was he vaccinated?

I think Sterlin is already calling the plays on offense.
We might as well let Tony White get a shot.

EDIT: Mike Lynch has been with Dino the longest, if that matters.

Was he vaccinated?

I would be shocked if he wasn't. Let's hope this is a blip. Need him back for Saturday.

Do we really though? If this team can't beat Albany without Dino, were in more trouble then any of us thought.

Vax isn't holding up that long and is only about 80% effective against the D. So far.

YES YES YES. He needs to establish what he thinks is the formula for them to win. No matter the opponent they need reps, they need Dino working as much as the team on situational football. His biggest achilles heel is the actual coaching of the games.

 

[djorange1989]

let's hope all is ok with Dino. if he does come back as positive, have Tony White fill in as HC for the game. sneak preview of what could be next year

 

[TheCusian]

Yeah, I’m aware. If he is, I worry less about his health. It dramatically reduces the chances of hospitalization, death, etc for a guy his age.

 

[tipphill]

if u were at the game you should be tested as well. no one around me wore a mask---it was a disgrace.--to many drunk people -- maybe they were the play callers!!! we are heading for a new low. i got tested tuesday.

Just so everyone is aware, this will NOT turn into a referendum on whether or not Covid is a hoax, masks do/don't work/ivermectin is quackery/a cure-all/the vaccine does/does not work/ etc.

Fair warning.

 

[Orangello]

Prolly the ref who called the PF on him.

 

[RandomGuy]

What is the covid cancellation policy? (Driving up)

If he tests positive do we cancel?

 

[wiseman3]

If he is vaccinated, per the CDC he does not need to isolate. If he isn't vaccinated and we learn he is quarantining, this turns in to a big issue.

All Syracuse staff and students are required to be vaccinated besides very limited medical/religious exemptions. Would hope Syracuse didn't bend the rules for their highly paid football coach. PR nightmare in the making if it comes out he isn't vaccinated

Quite frankly anyone on this board should be able to.coach this team to a win vs Albany.

They'd keep it under wraps.

I meant someone besides Sterlin could call plays. Anyone really.

A child could do a better job calling plays that Sterlin. I bet the TE would actually get the ball.

only if he tests negative does he not need to isolate.

Saratoga County has an interesting dashboard. Of the 299 active cases, 113 are vaccinated.
