Four weeks ago,  everyone here was proclaiming that Doug Marrone was the greatest thing since the invention of the internet.

Today,  everyone is saying SU should get rid of him because he is terrible.

I dare say I've been a sports fan (and an SU fan) longer than 99 percent of you (mainly because I am older than 99 percent of you).    And, as they say,  with age comes wisdom.

I was here during the early Coach Mac years -- pretty brutal with all the "Sack Mac" clamor.  That was in the pre-internet environment.  If there were an internet then,  one can only imagine what it would have been like.   Without question,  Coach Mac would  have been driven out of town before he was able to turn the program around.  And not a single recruit he wanted would have come here.

Those who say that high school recruits do not read the internet... are living in a dream world.   I have known several kids who have been recruited for various sports at various schools.  They read this stuff like a hawk reads the ground while looking for a squirrel.

Just saying ...
