Even if you come in as a highly rated prospect, the NFL is no guarantee. If it was, you would already be in the NFL and not need Syracuse. Of course he wants to send as many of his players to the NFL. I just think he when he mentions things like not looking ahead of the schedule, etc. He wants the guys locked in on the present moment and not worrying about where you want to be, but focused on where you currently are. Much easier said than done because it’s hard to be selfless 100% of the time, but that message hopefully spreads to the rest of the athletic department. Hype isn’t reality, buzz is a result of reality. [/QUOTE]
