Taste the goodness of the biscuit..!

Taste that honey sauce!

 

[storange]

This seems appropriate given Coach Fran's DART mantra and SU being overlooked and sneered at for two decades:

Great scene !

 

[Nahson]

Him and Caleb on the edge would have been so much fun to watch

 

[Cuseball]

Great scene !

Absolutely amazing what is happening. Even in my wildest dreams I would not have imagined this

Per McAllister - 1 year

He's 2 - that's incorrect. 2020 - Covid. 2021 - RS.

ESPN only shows that he played in 4 in 2021 in his game log. Maybe just had no stats in others?

One year of eligibility remaining.

Signed in 2020, covid year.
2021 played in 11 games, mainly special teams.
2022 played in 8 games. PFF grade 68.7
2023 played in 12 games. PFF grade 66.3

Actually you're right, NCAA reference is wrong. I saw it on his A&M profile.

That sucks I thought he had 2.

Hmm is A&M wrong or NCAA Reference & ESPN?

Who really knows - the Fadil Diggs mystery

 

[OrangeTarheel]

My wife has heard more about Syracuse recruiting in two weeks than what she has heard the last 18 years of our marriage. Thanks Fran, my wife is listening to me more now days!

That’s certainly what she wants you to think! Also, identify closely with this

 

[RandomGuy]

Meh, On3 already had us at #5 before this! 247 needs to get with it.

247 only has 2 teams with a higher ranked transfer average... This is insanity!!!!

Has ESPN ever been right about anything?

 

[Nicknack]

I'm serious here... I think I'm happier now than the day my son was born.


Please lord, don't have my wife ever read this forum - or my son, for that matter. But truth is truth.

It's hard to argue with that!

 

[721Comstock]

Did Rutgers not want him? (Sarcasm font)

not a taek. has DE speed.

 

[orangemass]

LFG

 

[PhatOrange]

I don't even know where I am.

You’re in Fransville hommie!

 

[Nicknack]

Oh my gawd. And I wasn't even going to drink tonight. Ha.

Here I go! Two in, and many more to follow boys and girls.

Then goes the edibles.

Since Fran is on a roll, I will follow.

 

[kcsu]

Beyond my wildest dreams. I can't begin to imagine what Fran and this staff will do next year after we make the playoffs.

Well there's a first time for everything - and I hope this is the first time!
