Class of 2021 QB Kyle McCord (NJ) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (12/17/23)

[FasterCuse]

This is what I was drinking earlier this evening in a celebratory manner

Troegs The Mad Elf Dark Ale

Belgian Strong Dark Ale | 11% ABV: The holidays at Tröegs start with our inner Mad Elf momentarily taking over the brew deck. So blame "him" for this cheerful ruby red creation brewed with honey, cherries, and Belgian yeast reminiscent of cinnamon, clove, and allspice.

One of my all time favs this time of year.

I’m far from an Axe fan, but is it any different from a Thamel doing it? Why wouldn’t he if he thought he had it nailed down?

It's not different, at all. People on here tripping

 

[phil77]

Welcome back to the national stage Syracuse

 

[Yeti]

Looks like HCFB beat the odds.

… Rutgers?

You’re right. Thamel is a jackass too.

 

[tep624]

Axe is a lot of things but he's not guessing here

Well it’s less about guessing and more about did he blow up McCord’s moment by doing it. If he was the authorized distribution method then yeah more power to him.

The hay isn’t in the barn, yet. Step one, a public commitment. Step two, pen to paper.

Hypothetically, if for whatever reason, the kid got cold feet/better dealed and backed out, who is going to get blow back?

Eh, it doesn’t really work that way.

Axe takes the risk of being wrong. And getting embarrassed. That would be the risk for any journalist or blogger.

Yes it does…same reason no one has blown up King yet (well except King). Brent is free to “predict”…but calling the actual shot ruins the kids spot

Ruins his spot of what? McCord will still tweet it out at some point and get his thousands of likes. Who cares

Nope. He’s not an employee of the program. As long as his info doesn’t come from a rep of the program who swore him to confidentiality on condition of receiving said information, then none of what you’ve said applies.

I'm not the biggest fan of Axe in general, but this isn't really on him, it's on whoever leaked it to him. He said he had multiple sources, so that's coaches, staff, McCord's camp, etc.

(Unless they wanted it out this way, which seems possible too. Then it's not on anybody obviously.)

 

[AZOrange]

I don’t have time to explain Brent’s clown show journalism

 

[Cusesky8214]

I think this is pretty cool.

 

[hungrychuck]

I’d much rather spend my time celebrating McCord’s commitment than defending Brent Axe.

So, are we allowed to enjoy this or are we too mad at Axe to do so?

 

[SUFan44]

I wonder if he could petition for a 5th year based on playing in the 5th game in garbage time as a freshman. Doubtful, but with the way the NCAA has been rolling…

 

[UpstateSM]

I wish I was doing drugs tonight to celebrate but dreams about Syracuse Football being back for the first time in my life will suffice until Thursday

 

[tep624]

You can angrily enjoy it. That’s how we do things in central NY.

I mean they should at least try it - claim negligence on the part of Day.

Why on earth would we be mad at Axe? Dude has a job just like anybody else. It's also entirely possible that this was intentionally leaked by someone in McCord's camp.

Excellent!
