Keeping the guy means your praying for 6 wins. I think SS is an honorable man, but I don't see our trajectory being more than 6-6 or 7-5 with his offensive philosophy. Doug Marrone rebuilt the program for hell I don't want that again. If people honestly think a Scott Shafer Syracuse team could be a top half offensive team I would love to hear it how.

We aren't beating LSU or Florida State next year. We have Watson/Clemson coming to the Dome, @ Louisville with another season under Petrino will be hard.

Can we win six of CMU, URI, @USF, @UVA, @NCSU, Wake, BC, Pitt? Going 6-2 in these games is possible, but I don't expect our offense to be much better. Hickey/Trudo will be gone and our OL won't be as good. A.J. Long has shown some potential, but not enough to feel he can lead the team to 6 wins. Our defense loses Crume, Lynch, Davis, Reddish, and probably Eskridge. If we make a coaching change the new staff gets next year as a honeymoon to develop an offense for 2016. If we keep Scott Shafer and don't get to a bowl then 2014, 2015, 2016 will have all wasted what we did in 2012, and the Doug Marrone ERA.
