Ive watched their games before. Seen quiet a few of their chip games. Watching their games dont change the fact that they couldnt compete week in and week out in a P5 conference. Comparing FCS teams to FBS is not a good approach. How you think SU would do with their schedule?
Agreed with one significant caveat. Im comparing a team that in modern day football has won more National Championships than any other football team. A team that has close to a 700% winning percentage against some very strong D1 teams. Iowa, Minnesota, Kstate, CSU...
You changing the narrative brother. You talking about a dominant program that is in a lower level. Maybe Mount Union will win half of ACC games too. Answer the question. How will SU do with ND schedule?
The region doesn’t produce or SU don’t sign them? Jay Bromley is a perfect example. Did he even have another offer? And we picked him up super late to fill a spot and he was drafted
As far as the 585, its Zembiec (who never played, got hurt) , Keith Downing who backup McNabb, before that it was Billy Scharr. 3 in 35 years.
One kid that no one paid attention to because he was a NY player. I was hanging with some old players from Christ the King last week and one of their teammates played at Cuse with McNabb(I forget his name, DL I think) and they would drive up for every Dome game, 5 hours isn’t that long. I made it once in 3 1/2 hours when I had a Mustang 5.0
I love the under the radar kid that makes the most of his opportunity. I saw Bromley earn a scholarship live at the Upstate Downstate game. On the other end of that many top NYS prospects didnt pan out. We have to look at it both ways if we are gonna cherry pick.
Yes for sure I agree. Averin Collier or Ashton Brolyd probably didn’t perform as expected.
Hey you could have used some other names lol. Many high ranked down state kids that didnt live up to expectations
Oh shoot did you coach them? Sorry about that. Ok let me think.
Thats better lol
Good point. A lot of those kids go to NJ private school powers. Some kids are going to Connecticut prep schools now.
Ehall seems to be getting a lot of kids in. Christ the King also. That's happening in Rochester too. Transfers are at a all time high. I understand why but I struggle with it.
Nice. Why stop there? I think De La Salle CA can beat P5 programs too. They had a 150 game win streak. That’s a successful program. Just based off that I guarantee they beat P5 teams
Comparing a HS team to a 15 time National Championship team that has beaten Iowa Iowa state, Minnesota, Kansas State, Colorado State, KU and won over 127 games since 2011 isnt a good look.
I don’t question if ND st can beat SU or any struggling P5 team here and there. They have done that. Actually, just in the last 15 years alone there’s been over 35 times a FCS team has beat a P5. It’s not just them. I’m just not gonna make any guarantees on how many games they would win in a P5 conference. Lol we will never get to see that. We will never get to see Mount Union play a full conference FCS schedule. Comparing SU to these teams makes no sense. We are dealing with totally different dynamics and challenges playing in the ACC.
Agreed. Lets hope that Dino can convince a few key Seniors to come back, we avoid the injury bug, and find a QB next year.
Yes. He’s needs that. Offensive line is the key. Not sure what Servais plans will be but we can get a transfer just as good or better with the new rules in place.
