Calvin Russell Official / Out Indefinitely

[Blanko97]

Nothing screams WR 1 like 23 yards and 0 TD in the SEC.

Oh wait...

yeah... he was sitting behind NFL 5 stars... This kid wasn't. Also the bigger point is we threw out a proven receiver this year because we "didnt have the money" well this is what happens. i also love that the narrative changes on a dime when we were all concerned about receiver when the portal closed but now that we LOST our top guy we are suddenly fine?

The juco kid we got is a baller as well we have guys who can step up. The season isn’t lost and the offense can still be very good.

See those stats don't matter, they arn't high enough level, clearly our entire offense is a wide receiver who had 700 receiving yards last season in high school. Point is stats only say so much.

Devastating loss for the team. Football is a ridiculous sport, it’s become entirely about being lucky enough to not have catastrophic injuries ruin your season.

 

[Lukeyloo]

we can't have anything good

Who was thrown out because we didn't have money?

But y'know also the entire financial backing of the athletic department and in some ways the University, real sustainable

Gill

Has it not been said it wasn't about money, it was by accounts so far Fran being an idiot and getting angry at him over something that it is still not in anyway clear what it actually was.

 

[Cuseregular]

of (effen) course!

I thought what he got mad at him about was money? I thought it was like the pena situation. I might be combining those two together though.

An early April Fools joke?

And it begins. Mystery injury. Lingers forever. We never get any info on it. Dude never plays. Then portals.

Sorry am I projecting?

As you should know, Syracuse isn’t permitted to announce the specific injury. I’ve heard Achilles or ACL.

 

[JuiceMeUp]

Only Syracuse man. Only -ing Syracuse

 

[Trueblue25]

Forum should send a sympathy e-card or something to him.


We’ll be ok so long as Angeli’s healthy. Ive got faith.

 

[RedtheGOB]

I’m more concerned about losing Womack to the portal today!

 

[rocklloyd]

He’ll be ready for national championship game.

next man up...a tough blow but doesn't derail our season. I get why some people think the season is over already though, we've seen that movie before.

 

[wiseman3]

We really need to hope it's an ACL instead of Achilles...the return to play metrics for WRs are so much better for Knee vs achilles. He's young but he may never get that elite explosion/burst back. Just devastating

He wasn't sitting behind them; he was getting passed by other players they brought in because he "wasn't good enough. Let's see what happens this season. Uncertainty doesn't always = Bad

 

[LpoolNative]

is there a high probability he transfers out? Isn’t here on a multi year contract?

I’m pretty sure it was multi year
