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

[Capt. Tuttle]

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

He is reading Syracusefan.com

 

[suloyalfan]

Honestly who can keep up with all the letters? What’s after Z?

 

[Laxfanshutt]

Cant wait to see everyone go nuts (including myself) if all these sources are correct!!!!Lfg!!!DART

 

[Etown]

The pieces are coming together!

 

[swish7]

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

I mean, it's crazy. We're all friends here, including Axe

 

[swish7]

Holy hell he's good.
Just need a line..

 

[SUinSC]

For the first time in 30 years, I'm thinking of moving back to Syracuse!!!
LET'S GO!!!

 

[gmoney44]

Straight outta Camden!

A crazy mother ’er named Fran Brown.

That's the recap I was looking for. Perfect. Hopefully this happens real quick and a lot of dominoes will follow. #DART

Why would anyone be mad at Axe for breaking this? He’s a journalist and a journalist’s job is to get info and tweet out “scoops”.

Plus he didn’t take any kid’s moment away! McCord is transfer getting upwards of 1M to come play here en route to the NFL. It’s not like he’s a HS kid getting his moment in the spotlight.

And McCord barely even posts on social.

Agreed to everyone backing Axe. The outrage some fans give to just be upset at is so frustrating.

It was obviously leaked to Axe, he would never have leaked the info had it not been told to him with the caveat “don’t leak it”. He’d never get that source again to trust him. It’s not that important to him.

Plus, the guy bleeds Orange and has been an awesome voice around CNY for us for decades. Your hatred is unwarranted and honestly, he needs to come back to the radio because the 6-8 timeslot blows!

i never got the axe hate. sure he has flaws but its comical that some people actually loathe him like they do. there are a few people that sit courtside that i loathe way more than axe and its not even close

 

[DPCuse]

This is the transfer that will get people to sit up and really take notice. We all know what’s going on because we live on this site. But the casual fan understands the importance of a QB. They know Ohio State. McCord is a name people will recognize and this news should land us on the ESPN ticker scroll.

Anyone who disputes my jokes about CNY anymore should just read this thread. This is the most CNY thread ever.

But wow this is fantastic news! I can't believe what's happening.

I think this is a Home run, Mccord against this schedule, with some weapons in the Dome, could be special. Like so many have said though O-line is still a glaring issue. One more WR would be nice, probably asking too much for Flemming lol.

 

[OburgOrange]

Well, it's howdy doody time now isn't it

Bourbon?

There is a slight possibility that with WR weapons that can get open and a balanced attack... hopefully more discipline... then the OLine will be sufficient.

I like that we’re going from #6 in 2023 to #6 in 2024

 

[sufandu]

I'll take #5.

It's a 12 team playoff starting next season.

I didn't realize that was happening so soon.

 

[Zepharus]

Holy hell he's good.

The dude puts ish on the money consistently. that 3 step drop is perfect

 

[kingtidge]

Only 11 if you exclude FLA St.

I hate to say this but all the newhouse kids on ESPN Syracuse are atrocious. They seem to only have knowledge of NFL. Very hard to listen to. I enjoy Higgins and Infante is pretty good, but everything after that is just bad. I expect a little bit of historical knowledge if you are going to be a sports radio guy. They didn't think Syracuse Georgetown was a rivalry. Enough said.

Signing Day is going to be ridiculous

I don't know. It think it's stupid that we preemptively name generations. It should happen organically after we see the characteristics of that generation like we did when we started naming them with the baby boomers. Nobody cared about naming them before that. We were too busy just trying to survive life.

At a minimum, need more quality depth along the OL.
