Macky sighting at the Dome home games

I must say when he was a sophomore I really thought he was just there as a legacy and wouldn't amount to much. He was too small and got pushed all over the place. He was the weak link. Well, Macky came full circle and made himself into one helluva center. I am glad to say his hard work proved me wrong. Sorry I doubted him - Macky is a champion.

It would be great to have him on the SU staff.
 
I saw him at the Villanova game. I have always liked him and hope he finds his niche.
 
I could see him as a GA next year if he doesn't find a roster spot.
 
I hope he gives the NFL another shot.

I would be pleased to one day see him coaching - maybe our OL!!!

You weren't the only one who thought he was too small and that it was only because of Coach Mac that Macky got a shot. There were quite the number posts denouncing Macky's actual ability to play DI ball. Thankfully the coaches don't listen to the fan base :)

Hard to not root for the guy!

My take is and was to respect the coach's ability to judge talent.

As they say, if you listen to the fans you will soon be sitting with them!

Of course, but coaches have to settle for those they can recruit. Often times, they are choosing between less than ideal candidates.

Could be...but I still don't bash the kids. From a judgment standpoint, I let it play out and figure I will find out in 4 years whether or not the kid deserved a scholarship. A kid like Macky was under enough scrutiny ...didn't need to hear from people who never saw him play a down tell everyone he wasn't any good before he eventually became the leader of the team.
