Message: [QUOTE="IthacaBarrel, post: 768657, member: 363"] Agree 100% STO. Sent me to the edge as well, I just don't see us winning many games this year with problems all over. Not that we lost but the fact we looked completely unprepared. I like Shafer I really do, but we have a lot of work to do and have given back a lot of the work back that Marrone had built with his staff as well. I think we underestimate it takes for a new staff to gel. We will need to score points versus teams we have left because I don't see the defense stopping a ton of teams. We have definitely taken a HUGE step back this year everywhere from what I can see. I think Syracuse football teams are defined by their seniors. I love Macky but he cant do it alone. Last year we had Pugh, Nassib, Lemon, and Shamarko. Those guys were not only really good players but great leaders as well. We had solid seniors the year of the first Pinstripe as well. 2001 great seniors as well. It makes a huge difference [/QUOTE]
