Q&A with Coach Shafer

[DCCuse]

My father-in-law invited me tomorrow to a lunch / Q&A with Coach @Onondaga CC. Anyone have any questions that they want me to try and ask Coach (IPF, general recruiting, going into 2nd ACC year, etc...). Will try my best.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Ask him if he'll open some Spring practices to the public?

 

[Cusester]

I'd love to hear an explanation of how he handles offers that aren't commitable. It has to be a very tough situation for both sides. Frank Battle is a perfect example.

 

[OrangePA]

In terms of potential is this year's frosh class the best that SU has recruited in over fifteen years?

 

[jr4750]

What does he feel the true keys to pushing SU up into that consistent top 20-30 teams in the country are?

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Ask him if stars matter.

 

[orangefog]

Ask him how long it takes to digest barbed wire?

 

[City of Cuse]

Please ask coach, "when was the first time you used "hard-nosed" in a sentence".

 

[Rocco]

Ask him how many former players check in and want to come up to visit. Further, who in particular of late?

 

[rocklloyd]

ask him if stats are for losers

 

[jgeorge322]

ask him if he thinks dabo is a stupid first name

 

[anomander]

Ask him his thoughts on the PS reporters.

 

[Chip]

Ask him if Dabo mollests collies.

Then ask him about Funderburke and see how close you can get to an honest answer about whether or not he can realistically be the superstar WR that was once recruited by every heavyweight in college football.

 

[Janner]

Ask him if he thinks there are any issues with depth on the D-line, more specifically DT position. If so how does he plan on dealing with it? If not, what has he seen that has inspired confidence in this position? Thanks!

 

[skurey]

"Do you and other football coaches around the country realize how terrible punting and kicking field goals are?"

 

[BlazeOrange]

Ask him what the best way is for a potential recruit (or someone who knows a player with interest who might be a good fit) to get the staff's attention. Any examples of players we've gotten through unorthodox channels?

 

[SUfaninAZ]

Ask him if he's a Slayer fan.

 

[Crusty]

Ask him if being a HC is all that he thought it would be. Did anything surprise him?

 

[tep624]

I'd be curious to know over his first 2 recruiting classes, a couple of recruits that the staff felt they were sure to land that ended up elsewhere.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Ask him for a firm handshake. The odds of getting the answer you want are 100%.

 

[ImperialOrange]

If he could fight one person from history, who would it be and why?

 

[BORZAK]

Ask him what it takes to do a question and answer with syracusefan

 

[JrodCuse]

Ask him who would be his 3 choices for "Marry, , Kill".

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Ask him who would be his 3 choices for "Marry, , Kill".

What about Jerry Kill? Is he back on the field?

 

[Upstate]

Look him in the eyes for as long as possible. Word has it that he doesn't need to blink.
