Any thoughts what's next for him?
 
Agree.

I think all the great Syracuse teams had some of the best players out of upstate NY. They tend to be really tough, hard working and competitive. If there is an extra scholarship in this class, I hope it goes to Joe.

I have great confidence he will find his way on to the field and have a great college career, regardless of where he goes or what level of college ball he plays...

Agreed...someone like UAlbany or Monmouth ought to offer him.
 
ok guys. Slow on d 1 and 2 talks with Joe. Did a visit at Brockport today and as a d 3 team they went out of there way for him. Great group of young coaches. Want him at rb and they do have a stud rb back as a senior who has great hips and speed. Joe wants there main major which is phys ed. He is very quiet and focused this year on state wrestling championship. I do feel he ends up there. Never tslked to him personally but just a feeling. I want the best for him. He deserves it.

Small school. That's probably the ONLY reason. When you're at a small high school, you have to work your ass off to get almost any D1 coach to pay attention.

They went to playoffs this year in d-3. Joe can break records there. It's a low key school also and he is more of a small town guy anyways.

Proud B-Port alum here, Class of '99. They stunk at football when I was there but this past year it was awesome to watch them on ESPN. Joe would be a great add for the Golden Eagles.
 
St. John Fisher '06... Just missed you guys, Brockport was down a bit when we started on the up-swing and Ithaca was strong, we had some great battles.
 
shu 49 if his grades are really good and/or would qualify for some need based aid, he should apply to SU as a normal student and see what they offer.

If its a great financial package and he's officially unrecruited by SU then he could receive max university aid and walk-on and prove his talent, without affecting scholarship player numbers.
 
Can a full qualifier Prep without affecting NCAA eligibility? Maybe that's an option for him if he wants to play at the BCS level - find a high profile prep school and play there for a year.

Casey Rogers just did it.

Yeah good point - I was pretty sure full qualifiers can do it. It might just make it that you have 4 to play 4 and can't redshirt or something like that. Might be an option for him. If you go D3, it's pretty hard to move up to BCS level without walking on anyway.
