Not to read too much in to it - but I wonder if Moore going off in the post standard article portends a negative outcome here? people got all upset with any criticism of his saying that stuff - but I don't see why...I am quite sure that he is a very good position coach as has been made clear by people much more knowlegable than myself, but it also seems clear that he's not a good recruiter and prefers to point out how the kids are stupid instead of making them see why SU would be better for them in the long run. Frustration doesn't sell well and our solid progress in other recruiting regions would seem to indicate that it is not really warranted.
tweet that shint, bro.
Not for nothing, but do we even know if Marrone offered Moore the gig? Perhaps he did get offered and turned him down because he would rather be at SU, as some have said he is a loyal Alum and obviously enjoys it here, and he has done magnificent things here for us.
Printed up an AP football chart, number of times a school appeared in the weekly Football AP Poll from 1936-2012. The football powerhouse Rutgers is number 86 at 38 times, highest rank # 7. Cornell is 74 with 47 appearances, and the football powerhouse Santa Clara is 75 with 43.
But in the Rutger's fan minds it was thisclose to nation prominence.Seriously those idiots believe thatTheir hate for Syracuse was polished by Shaddy"who set us up as the bad guys in his first few days as their coach. I'll never forget his statements regarding our program as the team he most needed to bring down in recruiting because of our success in NJ with dseleone doing the damage there.I was at first shocked by the mention and then pissed. I remember sitting in section 301 and George's wife Roberta coming over and chatting about the latest targets in NJ that George was shooting for . She loved the fact that my wife and I lived in Bridgewater NJ. The school system there was considered to be among the state's finest at that time and she kept tabs on what my two sons were doing . Her kids were a bit younger and my wife knew their names and chatted with Roberta at pretty much every game.
