Luke Carney in the portal

[HyattsCuse]

I wonder if there are multiple legit QBs that are interested in coming here. You can write off McCord’s performance as a unicorn, but 1/4 way through this season Angeli was leading the nation in passing too.

That might make this more of a desirable landing spot.

By legit, I’m talking about very high end FBS or someone with a history like McCord or Angeli.

Wink, wink, nudge, nudge…hint of inside info, Jake? Or are you actually wondering like the rest of us?

Sorry. I’m wondering like everyone else….

I don’t really agree with that.

Did Fran recruit the kid saying come here and you won’t play in year 1? I find that hard to believe especially with no QB1 at the time. If Fran did, then he made a dumb mistake. What is the point it isn’t like Carney was a big time recruit.

Also if Fran honored the agreement, why is Carney leaving?

If he wasn’t a fit how in the heck to you miss that badly? And why play him at all then? None of this makes sense.

So Fran will get a reputation for giving kids playing time? What kid doesn’t want that? Or Fran will get the rep that he wants to win games?

There is no point in redshirting kids anymore in the portal era. You only help their future team which we should not care about. Most kids don’t even want to redshirt so I don’t see much negative.

Carney would have given up the redshirt if they gave him meaningful playing time.

A poster above said it was Fran’s decision to have him leave.

Yes. You honor agreements with families and players otherwise you quickly get a bad reputation. Is what it is. He didn’t cut it here. Everyone always assumes a backup is better. Sometimes they’re not. (As we all learned this year)

What I don’t understand is Collins could more or less throw the ball and threw a lot of INT and he continued to play. When they put Carney in, they didn’t let him throw the ball…why? They let Collins and Filardi throw the ball. Weird!

Could be. I’d be surprised though if anyone like McCord etc were to come simply only due to the fact Angeli is here

If you are a Kyle McCord level QB, you could come in and pretty much take the job in the spring. Or, at least take the lead. I love Angeli, but coming off injury, he is no guarantee.

I don't know what Rickie is waiting for. Is he retaining legal counsel to review his Instagram goodbye message?

Prayer. He hasn’t prayed yet.

 

[richmondcuse03]

Prayer. He hasn’t prayed yet.

The portal doesn’t open yet. There’s no official reason to do anything yet. You can still back channel.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Please. He has a weak arm. Do you really think they wouldn’t let him throw if he could.

Yes

 

[newmexicuse]

I never understood why Luke was kept so under wraps and why he received so little PT considering what we witnessed on the field from the QB position this season.

It sure feels like everything is unravelling. Fran has his work cut out to put a respectable product on the field next season.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Context this however you want to he wanted to stay as did his parents but was told to go.

So Fran recruited him. Doesn’t let him throw. And then says bye??

There you have it.

Not going to pile on, he just wasn't that good, best of luck to him at his new school.

lol at Brent Axe's "Source tells me" tweet going out 3 mins after Luke already announced

That guy is a massive tool, literally foul

This concludes a short and really dumb chapter in Syracuse football history.

Nah, need Rickie to make his post and then, yes, you are right.

 

[qdawgg]

Passing the football into relatively tight windows which requires a zip on the ball.

Ahh, so the system only the lacrosse player was capable of running.

 

[TheHaze315]

What system?

The system of be Kyle McCord or Steve Angeli.

 

[qdawgg]

The system of be Kyle McCord or Steve Angeli.

Right and Filardi.

 

[Blanko97]

Good for him, deserves to play somewhere where the staff doesn’t seem to quit halfway through the season

 

[TheHaze315]

Right and Filardi.

He is praying and waiting for the answer. That seems to be how it works.

You could, why risk going up against the leading passer pre injury however?

 

[BomberOrange]

Everyone saw…Texas…stats…etc. but he was never recruited hard by the 7 TX D1 schools. He was never the guy. At this point we are transfer U. McCord, Angeli, next…it works.
