"We're looking forward to playing Florida State, a fantastic football team that's well coached. We're back in the upper echelon of the conf"

.@CoachBabersCuse has high praise for FSU's Dalvin Cook, says that he's a dynamic back.

"I can remember meeting the seniors for the first time in this room. It'd be really cool to finish off with 2 consistent performances."

"The seniors are a special group." - @CoachBabersCuse on senior day.

"I thought Zack played extremely well. When your QB goes down you need to get the other 21 guys to play better and we have to coach better."

"I know everyone in the Syracuse community wants what's best for Eric, we're letting the doctors determine it"- Babers on Dungey return date

Who are these people asking these ridiculous questions? I'm not even being defensive about losing Babers I just find it ridiculous to be harping on this.

 

[pacusewife]

I can't hear the questions well when I watch these things. I really want to know who the dipschlitt is that asked about Baylor.

Why wouldn't the media ask this question. If he did leave and no one asked everyone will be shocked at how out of the blue it was. It's a completely reasonable question to ask and a completely reasonable answer from Dino.

The inevitable spin in an article post-question is the bigger "issue" to me.

It's either Bailey or Bud. I guarantee it.

Because it's the press conference about the FSU game and not Dino's feature?

 

[pacusewife]

It's either Bailey or Bud. I guarantee it.

My guess is Bailey from what I could sort of hear it didn't sound like Bud but I'm not skilled enough to make that distinction. I'm sure if I hang around Twitter long enough, it'll reveal itself.

Lets see if anyone asks Jimbo Fisher about the LSU job.

 

[PhatOrange]

i'll be shocked if it's bailey.

that's not good.

people only get second opinions when things aren't good.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Harbaugh gets asked questions about NFL jobs.

Nature of the beast.

It's a legitimate question.

So who starts next year at QB?

 

[CuseOnly]

So who starts next year at QB?

Wilson and Mahoney are gone so the roster will be...

Culpepper
Devito
MO Hasan - walkon

If Dungey is done, we need to recruit another QB ASAP, we will only have 2 scholarship QB's on the roster next year.

Mahoney is only a Junior.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

You could see a 5th year transfer regardless of what Dungey's future looks like

 

[Consigliere]

Mahoney is only a Junior.

As is Wilson, right? Redshirt but has a year left.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

As is Wilson, right? Redshirt but has a year left.

Wilson is a 4th year Junior. He could take his degree and become a Grad Transfer.

Mahoney is only a 3rd year Junior.

That was my first thought. To me, the tea leaves are indicating that there is a very real possibility that ED's career at SU is over. If that's the case, then I feel like it's undoing any momentum we gained this year. An even tougher schedule next year, and we'll be starting a QB with ZERO game experience.

Could be SU wants a 2nd doctor to sign off on his return to action.

I like the way you think...but I don't think that's likely.
