As a Heels fan, he is used to watching his team loaded with prime-time talent almost on a yearly basis. He turned to me and asked, “how many McDonald’s All-Americans does Syracuse have on its roster?” He was surprised to learn the Orange do not nab more All-American talent than they actually do. Truth be told, Jim Boeheim has recruited many more of the Gerry McNamara types than those in the Carmelo Anthony mold…and that’s not a bad thing. In fact, the strength and longevity of the Orange basketball program was illustrated by an[/I][URL='http://insider.espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/11471111/college-basketball-future-power-rankings-teams-most-likely-succeed-next-three-seasons'][U][I]ESPN.com article[/I][/U][/URL][I]earlier this month. Based on a criteria of five categories (coaching, current talent, recruiting, program power and stability), Syracuse ranks No. 8 on the list of future power rankings in college basketball. We know that Boeheim and his staff have been around forever and are at the top of their game, which explains the stability, coaching and program power criteria. And, with the early exits of Tyler Ennis and Jerami Grant after last season, the current talent is not quite what it has been in recent seasons. ...[/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=rgb(255, 128, 0)]Other[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [B][IMG]http://imgick.syracuse.com/home/syr-media/width620/img/drinks/photo/15916440-mmmain.jpg[/IMG] [/B] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/drinks/index.ssf/2014/09/clarks_ale_house_why_the_antic.html#incart_river']Clark's Ale House: Why Anticipation is Building for the Return of a Syracuse Legend (PS; Cazentre)[/URL][/B] [I]In June, more than 10 months after Ray Clark[/I][URL='http://blog.syracuse.com/cny/2013/08/clarks_ale_house_to_reopen_later_this_year_at_the_former_wise_guys_bistro_location.html'][I]announced his namesake bar would reopen[/I][/URL][I]after what was then a 3-year hiatus, a small group headed to the proposed new location. They stood under the awning reading "Clark's Ale House" at the corner of South Salina and East Washington streets. (Signs in the bar's windows promised the reopening was a work in progress.) Buddies Scott Barnowski and Dave Scharoun held empty beer pint glasses. Barnowski held a sign that read "Ray" in big letters. Next to him, Scharoun's son-in-law Rob Taylor held a sign that posed the question: "When are you REALLY going to reopen? We can't wait much longer!" Now it's late September. And the answer is: Soon. Really. Maybe next week. ...[/I] [IMG]http://imgick.syracuse.com/home/syr-media/pgmain/img/post-standard/photo/2014/09/23/-322aa9c53fc1ab5b.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE=3]Sting and Jeanne Shenandoah (of the Onondaga Nation)[/SIZE] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2014/09/how_did_onondaga_nation_members_spend_sunday_with_leonardo_dicaprio_mark_ruffalo.html#incart_m-rpt-2']How Did Onondaga Nation Members Spend Sunday with Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo and Sting? (PS; Moses)[/URL][/B] [I]When Jeanne Shenandoah, of the Onondaga Nation, saw musician Sting marching next to her Sunday at The People's Climate March in New York City she thanked him. "I thanked him for all the wonderful humanitarian work he does all over the world then he kissed me on both cheeks," she said. About 70 members and leaders of the Onondaga Nation boarded two buses early Sunday morning to head to New York City for the march.
