SU DAD x 2  =  my moniker indicates I am the [B]father[/B] of [B]two[/B] current [B]students at Syracuse[/B].

Am I not allowed to post here if I'm not a lifelong diehard fan or a parent of a player?

Ok, I'll "be careful."

I've been following college football for more than 45 years.  Coached HS and JC for almost 12 years.   I am a fan of the game and the process.

Never followed SU football closely until my daughter applied and we visited in the fall of 2018.   I found this board after a second child decided to attend SU last spring.   I am not a lifelong diehard fan. Which might actually allow me to be a little objective.  But I get it.  You don't want objectivity.  You want to storm the Dome and hang the coach in effigy if the team doesn't meet your expectations.  Good luck with that.

Disappointment usually comes when your expectations don't match reality.   As I look at this roster roster with 65 freshmen and redshirt-freshman, and only 10 seniors (including 7 RS-Sr), as well as a two-deep depth chart (that came out today) that includes only has 6 seniors in the 47 position players listed, I know I will temper my expectations.

47 position players listed in the two-deep depth chart today; 6 seniors, 8 juniors, 12 sophomores and 21 AARP card carrying freshman.

I will be patient.   You do you.
