Syracuse vs Boston College: Two Schools Headed in Opposite Directions (bcinterruption.com; Favat)
A funny thing happened following Boston College's 20-17 loss to #1 Florida State ...
With the loss, Boston College head coach Steve Addazio fell to 13-11 overall, and 7-8 in conference play. That mark is identical to the record Addazio compiled in two seasons at Temple -- 13-11 overall, 5-3 MAC, 2-5 Big East for a 7-8 conference record -- before Brad Bates hired him away to resurrect a moribund Boston College football program.
Many Boston College fans lambasted the hire at the time and, frankly, it wasn't hard to see why. Addazio won just four games in 2012 with the Owls, rocking a roster full of MAC talent against a Big East conference schedule -- Temple's first year back in the reconstituted Big East. After winning 9 games the year after taking over for Al Golden in Philadelphia, Addazio managed just four wins in year two. Nevermind the switch in conference affiliation and the significant step up in competition. The perception was clearly that Temple was going in the wrong direction.
Why would a power conference program want anything to do with a head coach of just two years at, of all places, Temple?

Verbal Commit Dungey Becomes Only QB in SU Class of 2015 (DO; D'Abbraccio)
Lakeridge (Oregon) High School quarterback Eric Dungey verbally committed to Syracuse’s recruiting Class of 2015, he announced via his Twitter account Sunday night.
Dungey, a three-star commit according to At their request, this network is being blocked from this site., is the only quarterback in the Orange’s incoming class.
