As a life-long Syracuse fan and Rochester native, I'm not happy with Carter's choice of Rutgers over SU.  But I've know his coach since my son played for him at his previous school.  Fortunate enough to get to know Devan just a little bit.  I'm all for bashing Rutgers and I also believe they will have a tough time in the Big Ten.  And I also think down the road Devan might regret his decision.  But he is a good kid and comes across as very thoughtful and intelligent.  And he stuck by his coach and teammates to help turn the program around when all the private-catholic schools were after him to transfer with promises of getting him a scholarship.  SU didn't stay in touch over the last year nearly as well as Rutgers.  Shafer himself has said, in putting together his staff, this business is all about relationships.  Plain and simple, he and his mom trusted the guys he knew better with the next 4-5 years of his life over guys he's met once or twice for a few hours.

I'm disappointed that our fan base is so petty that it's calling a kid that, in other threads was anointed as the next great LB, as now being stupid and not tough.
