Dino...u got a mess...

[kcsu]

Players leaving are a very unfortunate sign of the times, with that sad there definitely needs to be some looking in the mirror and determining what type of offensive system we are and adapting recruiting to make that work, in addition to finding some capable WRs via the portal. As much as we have had guys leave the portal lets pound it and find guys to help us.

No doubt its going to be difficult to keeping the moral high, we have some great young players to build around but...losing is tough and its been this way for the majority of Dinos tenure.

On the defensive side of the ball you have to like what you see but will need more big guys and depth up front for next season. Now keep Tony White locked up in the basement and dont let him answer his phone this off-season when other schools come sniffing around.

I'm torn on if Dino should stay, our expectations are so low, all our HC needs to do annually is make a framing bow, any bowl. Why is it this hard!

This is just the start. Two more starters according to the parents at Rutgers. Hopefully they dont but who knows. I just hope that we dont lose the coaches that i have heard about

That legit

Aware that maybe the “bad late game manager” critique may not be enough to get rid of Dino, a fan pushes “you got a mess narrative” into the middle of the table

meanwhile, the team is playing its best ball since 2018, our RB is about to over 1,000 yds, our QB is entertaining as hell, and we’ll have a legit chance in every game we play

that legit chance takes a really big % hit every single time DB has to make any decision that has any importance to it.

White will most likely get some looks from bigger schools just the way it goes, not much you can do to defend that

You and others have been wearing the "mass exodus" sandwich board since last spring.

Still waiting for it to happen.

It's just like Umass to the B1G!

imminent.

Well said.

so in 19/20 we went 6 and 17...and we're playing our best ball at 3-4. You're right to say there is improvement but that bar is a bit low.
a legit chance in every game we play...EXCEPT THAT COACH SEEMS TO HAVE A HARD TIME TAKING THAT CHANCE which is an issue.
I listen to Dino's post game pressers and I see/hear a lot of foam and no beer.
I hope this team sees 5-7.

Not true on mass true on some good players and coaches leaving. Hopefully not on the coaches

Assistants are on 1 or 2 year contracts and don't have their next job lined up before the current season is over.

On the coaching front, retaining good assistants is an issue for every program not sure why many feel this is a problem exclusive to Syracuse football or an indictment on Dino. It happens.

He's starting his NIL selling his 34 jerseys. Doesn't seem like he's going anywhere.

Taj did the same thing...Then a week later hit the portal? Who knows what kids will do?

 

[qdawgg]

I think he had a mess, and he's fixing it.

As long as the team stays together thru this and they flip a couple of these close games, all will be fine.

If we lose the rest of them, even if all close games, all bets are off. Maybe Joe Moorhead will pick up the white courtesy phone. The QB you recruited is waiting for you, along with one of the best RBs in all the land.

A good defense and in the very least, one of the best RB’s in the game should make the SU job interesting. Not like we’re devoid of talent. We just need a coach that can maximize the talent we have.

Look at any of those resumes, have hat will travel. Just is what it is.

He did it a good while before. Tucker seems grounded.

 

[Alsacs]

It’s not going to be that bad.
Remember when if we fired Shafer we would lose the entire team?
It never happened.

Dino needs to rally the troops for the rest of this season and try to get to 6 wins.

If the university keeps without a bowl it might cause worse damage to season tickets.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Grounded seems almost hyperbolic for Tucker.

 

[PhatOrange]

OK Devito gone, Taj gone, Jarveon gone, 2 TEs gone...
A head coach that can't manage a game...
This is starting to "stink".
Or maybe it's not dino that's got a mess, but Wildhack?

kids sitting the bench transferred. omg what a mess.

Yiu’ll find that a lot around here. We’ve been turning the corner since Shafer. Luckily we won only one game last year so being able to argue improvement was almost guaranteed.

 

[Cuseregular]

Who cares?

A mediocre QB left. Another spot opens up for recruiting / transfers. Win-win.

Aaaaaaaamen.

 

[Cuseregular]

that's the difference spot on. Good eval. Dr. Bayside clinical psych. expert, you've now entered my realm, self proclaimed football expert who understands the nuances of the psychological aspects of the game. Kid isn't going anywhere. He shatters the record books, leads the team to success next year AND wears #44, book it!

 

[PhatOrange]

Well, we're actually only 2nd.

the interesting part of this is all 4 teams having losing records. Tough sitting the bench on a losing team when you think you shouldn't be. There are a ton of kids in the portal already since the season started. We'll see where we are on the transfer portal when the dust settles.

I think we have to get used to this as the "new normal". I'm training myself to be numb to the news. It's not working, but i'm trying.

Most were on the 2 deep at the beginning of the year.
Not insignificant/easy to replace losses.
And can only be more important as the season wears on(Injuries?).
