The spread for #UofL-Syracuse dropped another point, and is now favoring Louisville by just 2.5 points. Started as 6.5-point favorites.

Each Priority to Benefit Prospective, Current and Former Student-Athletes
GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com)
– The Atlantic Coast Conference is submitting its initial priorities as part of the new autonomy structure that will help every student-athlete better achieve the kind of rewarding experience they deserve as part of the collegiate model. The priorities are being sent forward to the NCAA by the October 1 deadline.
Each of the priorities builds upon the ACC’s overall mission to emphasize both academic excellence and athletic competitiveness, seeking to maximize the educational and athletic opportunities of its student-athletes while enriching their quality of life.
“The ACC has consistently been a leader in appropriately balancing academics and athletics,” said Donna Shalala, Chair of the ACC Council of Presidents and President of the University of Miami. “The list of priorities that we are submitting to the NCAA reflects our determination to continue improving our student-athletes’ experience as an integral part of the educational missions of our world-class universities.”
“The collegiate model is a very special part of this country’s educational system and culture, and we believe the priorities set forth continue to focus on the importance of better addressing the needs of our student-athletes,” said ACC Commissioner John Swofford. “The work that’s been done by our membership and now sent forth by the Council of Presidents shows a commitment to highlighting a more effective structure where these benefits can be realized.”
The Council’s priorities are a principled and disciplined approach to reform with a continued commitment to both male and female student-athletes and our broad-based programs.
The initial priorities being sent forward by the ACC include:
  • Examination of scholarship protections for student-athletes;
  • Meeting a student-athlete’s cost of attendance;
  • Ensuring institutional flexibility to provide educational support for former student-athletes;
  • Examination of career-related insurance options for student-athletes; and
  • Ensuring that nutritional needs of student-athletes are met in a reasonable way.
Additional topics were also identified for further discussion and possible inclusion within future legislative cycles. These topics include, but are not limited to, exploring the time demands on student-athletes and safeguarding the right of student-athletes to enjoy the full educational opportunities and benefits available to other students.
The Council previously charged three subcommittees to evaluate the new NCAA autonomy topics relative to three subsets of student-athletes (prospective, current and former). Each subcommittee was chaired by a President and included a broad-based group of university practitioners that have expertise in the topics within each respective subcommittee. All 15 member institutions were represented between the three subcommittees. Following this work, the league’s 5-5-5 committee on autonomy reviewed the recommendations, which were then forwarded to the Council of Presidents.
About the ACCThe Atlantic Coast Conference, now in its 62nd year of competition and 15 members strong, has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. ACC members Boston College, Clemson, Duke, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Miami, North Carolina, NC State, Notre Dame, Pitt, Syracuse, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest continue to build upon the cornerstones on which the league was founded in 1953 with a consistent balance of academics, athletics and integrity.

Not sure someone said nothing, but that article says it's not much even if they had a great time. Some of those kids already committed while others mentioned the main factors that will go into their decision, which made no mention of a MetLife game. Like uni's, it's way down the list if at all on it.

Who did we get because we played USC there? PSU?

Did you also note the economic impact of losing a home game?

Glad this long term deal will be ditched. It's one thing to do a one off, it's another to have a 14 game deal.

Looks like #UofL QB Will Gardner (knee) is back at practice again. Staying late for individual work but we won't get update until tomorrow.

#UofL DC Todd Grantham: Challenge vs. Cuse is for pass rush to "stay in rush lanes" and watch QB Terrel Hunt. Hunt's 299 rush yds lead Cuse

Jeff Greer‏@jeffgreer_cj 5m5 minutes ago
Grantham meant pass rush gets upfield, secondary covers downfield, vertical separation gives Hunt space to run. UL wants to close that gap.

From earlier, Eli Rogers had no issues reminding his teammates of 1 of #UofL's most painful recent losses - Syracuse: http://cjky.it/1DWXMFD

A few quick injury notes from Syracuse offensive coordinator George McDonald...

Brisly Estime (ankle) did not practice today. He received treatment and is day to day.

Ashton Broyld (lower-right leg) ran during practice. He's definitely out for Louisville.

Sean Avant (upper body) could play against Louisville. He hasn't seen the field yet this season and fills a position of need in the slot.

And with TE Kendall Moore (concussion) expected to miss the Louisville game, Josh Parris, Tyler Provo and Jamal Custis will all be in mix.

Spoke with McDonald for a while tonight about play-calling. Look for a longer story about his process tomorrow afternoon.
