Message: [QUOTE="elimunelson, post: 3667738, member: 615"] Syracuse is a university that runs a historically successful football program. I'm very glad that the Newhouses, Whitmans, Carnegies have devoted cash to making the school a better academic operation than a shrill for college sports in such a frankensteinian manner. You don't want to be Texas. If you do, then by all means go root for them. I went to Syracuse so my motives are that the school as a whole succeeds, in the classroom and on the field. I love Syracuse sports. Live for them really in a way that i'm sometimes ashamed of because it's college kids playing sports. But i'm REALLY glad the school has some degree of perspective with the operation in relation to the reason Syracuse exists (to educate). [/QUOTE]
