Expect Hunt to be on short leash Saturday...

[OrangePA]

What about bringing in George Deleone to call the plays?

Sounds good - over 100 wins on the Hill.

Worked well for UConn.

Lombardi couldn't win with UConn's talent.

If Hunt throws for 100+ yards, the Orange are in business. That is in the first quarter, of course.

 

[OrangePA]

Brilliant response.

Sugar Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Orange Bowl, Peach Bowl, Hall of Fame Bowls, Liberty Bowl, Gator Bowl, Cherry Bowl, Music Bowl, and on and on and on.

Wins over Florida, Colorado, Texas, Va Tech, LSU, Clemson, and on and on and on.

Do you really have no memory of the great years we had with George DeLeone running the offense on the Hill starting in 1985?

Ugh.

Maybe the pressure from Allen will light a fire for Hunt. Seemed like he built on that competition for Wagner/Tulane.

Those performances had little to do with the quarterback and everything to do with the competition. If Hunt was any good SU wouldn't have recruited Allen.

Well, then you have to call into question the staff's ability to evaluate QB recuits because Allen sucks worse than Hunt.

They didn't recruit him. He reached out to them, they bit because they just graduated their 3 year starter and didn't know what they had in Hunt. Loeb and Kinder were not the guys.

I think they were being honest about it being an open competition in camp, Allen edged out Hunt because they knew our WR were not going to get open and Allen throws a better ball.

Hunt played better in those games than Nassib ever did vs similar competition.

I love QB rotations. (Insert sarcasm)

 

[timkay99]

I just love the fact that QB is discussed so much on this board when neither QB should be anywhere near the field. I am beginning to come around on banging the redshirt for either Wilson or Kimble and having them start this week.

It is funny that his staff will have now recruited 4 QB's in their short time (counting the re-recruitment of Austin Wilson). They have also recruited 4 WR's (committed) and don't seem to be stopping at 3 this year.

How far behind is Winfield if he can't even crack the starting lineup with this bunch? If people talk about losing the RS for one of the QB's, why not lose it for the only WR this staff recruited to Syracuse when everyone outside of Broyld can't do anything?

 

[tep624]

Ding ding ding, why our crack reporting staff at syracuse.com hasnt questioned Schafer or Mcdonald about this is mindboggling. Perhaps Cohen and his band of merry reporters could maybe look into why we keep running the same WR's out there despite abysmal results. It would also be nice if we could maybe start holding Moore somewhat accountable? He obviously isnt recruiting so could he at least coach up the position?

For Cohen to write an article like that, that would require him to have access to the staff, and I'd be floored if he actually had any level of significant access after the twitter stunt he pulled.

Wildcat all game. You heard it here first.

Not sure if you are joking but I honestly think this may be the best way to move the ball.

 

[xc84]

I don't think Hunt is on a short leash. He won't be constrained any more or less than he has been. I don't think they will limit him which is what "short leash" means. With that said, if he does not produce, he will be yanked.

 

[cuseinchina]

That's depressing. Allen has been terrible. Hunt gave me hope against the sisters of mercy schools. Very hard to imagine a true freshman coming in next year and doing anything.

Here's to Hunt showing some potential this week!

Why is that hard to imagine? Does John O'Korn ring any bells? lowly 3 star freshman, almost came here, torched Rutgers last week. EDIT - sorry see someone already beat me to the O'Korn reference.

 

[cuseinchina]

This sounds promising, " We'll probably have a plan going into the week. There will be some type of plan…"

I'm encouraged.

My first grader's soccer coach has more clarity of thought and purpose.

Not wildcat. Zone Read, all day.

Short leash is not the same thing as a rotation

That is what 'short leash' means. In this case, it does not mean limited re: play book.

Nah...

"to have a lot of control over someone's behaviour and allow them very little freedom to do what they want"

"A strict set of rules, or great scrutiny or oversight which limit one's freedom of action."

"To keep (a person) on a short leash to maintain close control over the activities of (a person)."

"Dogs are walked on a leash, usually about six feet long. However if your dog is aggressive or misbehaves it might be better to keep him on a two foot long leash. A short leash is used to maintain close control over the dog."

"constantly supervise and watch over someone; limit or control someone’s ability to move or act freely"

Thank you for proving my point.

My bad. I didn't realize your point was they planned to keep tighter control over what Hunt does on the field this week.

No worries. LGO!

Shafer: "Terrel will start and we'll see how its going." Leash might be shorter than I thought.

First quarter INT, and he's yanked.

When Allen then throws one, we're just going to keep the defense out there. Even when we get the ball back.
