Coach Babers’s show this year show will be Thursday nights at 7PM except when the game is not on a Saturday.
I’ll be summarizing the comments directly related to the team and the next game (late) on the night of the broadcast and anything else interesting the next day, (if there is anything else that seems interesting). I’ll have a “first hour” and a “second hour” question.
They are doing the show on Zoom, not at any local restaurant.
You can also listen to the show live each week on the Syracuse IMG Sports Network and Cuse.com. Wednesday's show will be on 99.1 FM and 97.7 FM, as well. The show will regularly air on 99.5FM (Syracuse) 99.1 FM (Utica) and 1200 AM.”
You can also get it on: Home | Free Internet Radio | TuneIn
There hasn’t been any change in the phone numbers, which last year were 315-424-8599 (local) or 1-888-746-2873. You can call to ask questions or submit them via Twitter at: https://twitter.com/CuseIMG

You can (or could last year, anyway), listen to a podcast of the show, probably the next day, at: Search results for babers | Free Internet Radio | TuneIn
I’ve been asked to continue doing the summaries, even by people who listen to the podcasts. I may focus on the major points, rather than trying to record everything.
My Question(s) or Comments
First, coach, I did some math. You said that when you were a player you were timed in from 4.45-4.55 in the 40 yard dash. Let’s split the difference and say 4.50. We know Jawhar Jordan has been timed in 4.37. 40 yards ais 1,440 inches. If you divide 4.37 by 4.50 and multiply that times 1,440 inches, you’d have finished 1,398 inches. So you would have finished 42 inches, or 3.5 feet or 1.2 yards behind Jawhar. That’s still pretty fast. What I don’t know is how you led the 1983 Rainbows in rushing with only 295 yards?
My Errol Flynn movie reference for the week is another one about being caught behind enemy lines and fighting your way out so you can come back to fight again another day, Objective: Burma
For my main question I will ask about the situation at the end of the Boston College game. When you are down by 10 points in the final minute and you’ve moved into the other team’s territory, what do the analytics say about whether you should go for the touchdown first so you only need to kick a field goal if you can get the ball back or kick the field goal as soon as you can save time to get the ball back and to score a touchdown, maybe on a Hail Mary, at the end?
(Note: This week’s and next week’s show will be on Wednesday.)
