[I]The Team

(This section is based on my own observations of players who played last year as well as comment from internet sources like Syracuse.com, The Daily Orange, Nunesmagician.com, The Juice, etc.)[/I]

The reset button has been pushed twice: Syracuse is changing to a high-powered, hurry-up spread on offense, which everybody is talking about and going from an aggressive, blitzing Scott Shafer defensive concept to the Tampa 2, which sends linebackers back into coverage and relies on the down linemen to pressure the backfield, which not enough people are talking about. Both are major changes and how this team adjusts to the new schemes will have a lot to do with how many games they win this year. Babers seems to be the type of coach who installs the system he wants immediately, expects the players to adjust and recruits the players he wants based the system already on display, as opposed to a coach that tailors his system to the available talent. That may work out in the long run but it can make for a bumpy early ride.
