I KNOW! Seemed impossible, but nearly a year from the last confirmed date ([URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2015/8/13/9149109/syracuse-wisconsin-schedule-football-2020-2021']with Wisconsin[/URL]...), Syracuse Athletics has locked up an opponent for an upcoming year. SU will host the [URL='http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/teams/middle-tenn-st-blue-raiders']Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders[/URL] on September 9, 2017. It's the third confirmed game for 2017, along with Central Michigan (September 16) and a road game at LSU (September 23). That leaves one spot left -- the opener -- which will probably be filled with an FCS squad.

Both schools announced the contest, which will take place Sept. 9, 2017, at the Carrier Dome. It will be the first time the programs meet. Three of the Blue Raiders’ four non-conference contests in 2017 are against teams from the power five conferences — Syracuse (ACC), Sept. 2 vs. Vanderbilt (SEC), and Sept. 16 at Minnesota (Big Ten). The exception is a Sept. 23 home game against Bowling Green. MTSU has not faced an ACC opponent since 2013, a 40-20 loss at North Carolina. It has scheduled a home-and-home series with Duke in 2019 (home) and 2020 (away). ...[/I] [B] [URL='http://www.todaysu.com/acc/syracuse-orange/how-syracuse-ad-john-wildhack-can-help-turn-around-football-program/']How Syracuse AD John Wildhack Can Help Turn Around Football - TU[/URL] (todaysu.com; Holcomb)[/B] [I]It isn’t every day that one gets to choose who your boss is going to be, but make no mistake, Syracuse football coach Dino Babers sure did. Babers was reportedly apart of a six member search committee to find a new athletic director after the departure of Mark Coyle less than a year into his tenure. The consensus feeling around Syracuse athletics after Coyle left was betrayal, so the search committee had the tough task of finding someone who was qualified for the position and would remain loyal to the orange and blue. Syracuse found both in long-time ESPN executive John Wildhack. Not only is Wildhack a Buffalo native, he is also a Syracuse alum and he [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/orangesports/index.ssf/2016/07/qa_with_new_syracuse_ad_john_wildhack_jim_boeheims_future_dino_babers_system.html']expressed his strong admiration[/URL] for the school Wednesday. “The only place I would leave ESPN for is Syracuse.” Wildhack also went on to reel off several other family members who attended Syracuse, so with that, Babers can put a big fat check mark next to loyalty. Coming from his vice president for programming position at ESPN, the immediate direct impact Wildhack will make on the football program is murky, but he is still the right athletic director to turn around the program. The No. 1 reason that’s the case is he meets Babers’ approval. ...[/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]Other[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [IMG]http://media.syracuse.com/news/photo/2016/07/07/amp-osha-complaint-page-1jpg-3e60105582b58b4e.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2016/07/amphitheater_workers_file_osha_complaint_dirty_drinking_water_1_bathroom_for_100.html#incart_m-rpt-1']Amphitheater workers complain to OSHA: Dirty drinking water, 1 bathroom for 100 employees[/URL] (PS; Coin)[/B] [I]Workers at the Lakeview Amphitheater filed a complaint last week with OSHA, saying they're forced to breathe [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2016/06/lakeview_amphitheater_2016_4_failures_and_4_successes_of_the_season_debut_venue.html#comments']dust from the parking lot[/URL], drink dirty water and share a single bathroom.
