otta be grades or a character issue we don't know about. My guess is grades.Character is somewhat subjective unless its Doug's. idea and team rules.This kid clearly loves Syracuse. Why haven't we offers him? Grades? Talent? On paper he seems like he'd be a great commit especially considering who he pals around with.
He also missed Syracuse's camp but has made many others.

When you have Edwards in the backfield and Cornelius as your number one what do you do? The kid is a legit athlete that had to wait behind a pretty good D-1 caliber receiver.Is this thread refering to Tottenville WR Malique Belfort?
If so, missing camp is pretty big. He looks the part but he had all of 7 catches for 78 yards last year vs 26 for 434 from Cornelius.

Not only that but there were QB issues at Tottenville too ... injuries if I recall. Its not exactly like the Pirates throw it all that much anyway ... heck Cornelius was lucky to get as many thrown in his direction as he did ...When you have Edwards in the backfield and Cornelius as your number one what do you do?

Right but one would assume that A.C. had the opposing teams best cover corner on him (Wayne Morgan) which would leave Belfort vs the other guy.
Again, he looks the part but shouldn't he be open and accidentally catch more than 7 passes? Maybe the staff wants to see him in person and/or what kind of numbers he puts up this year as "the guy".
At one point, Cornelius himself had to line up at QBThat would be a conclusion one could draw but honestly I think they had problems in general throwing the ball that had nothing to do with the WRs ... if I recall their QB at one point couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat ...
