That YouTube video is pretty awesome. Especially since HCSS was the last one in the pool.

The more I see of Schafer, the more I think he is essentially a big kid.

And that's Awesome.

Robinson:
incompetent | could relate to college players | could not instill discipline

Marrone:
competent | may have had trouble relating to the college player | could instill discipline

HCSS:
competent | can related to college players | can be a disciplinary

The vote is still out on HCSS, but that's my back of the envelope scorecard.

Missed the thread that was already started and had this video if mods want to merge the two

Define discipline.

I could be way off here but I imagine a fair amount of coaches wouldn't have players over at their house to hang out with them in their pool.

I couldn't imagine king saban, the butcher of south bend, or a lot of these other guys willingly doing this.

And although it's not the main purpose of the gathering, this does make great PR in the recruiting cycle, no?

I feel like, if you get invited to a party at the Shafer's, the food will be good and you'll have a good time, you know?

It certainly doesnt hurt to have imagery to back up that our coach is legitimately a good guy. He had the entire team over last year before the season. I remember the picture from that because Bromley was almost as big as the house.

Sagan has players over. The 60 Minutes infomercial/Bama recruiting video had Mrs. Sabah talking about how they had to make sure the decorative rocks surrounding the pool could handle a 350lb guy jumping off because they jump off everything.

Trivia question...name all the guys in that video

I didn't think he was seeing as how many got in trouble off the field.

I think Marrone did a better job of making it feel like things were disciplined vs actually having a disciplined team, but that's still a positive change from the GRob era.

I think Shafer is an absolute perfect fit for Syracuse and the college game in general. He's obviously very appreciative to have a chance to be a HC as well. He obviously loves the student athlete. That said, if he can't win games people won't like him, if he wins games at a decent clip, have to be realistic, he will be loved by the community. I don't think anyone dislikes the guy, very difficult to do so. I think the diehards already love the guy, casual fan base is moving that way, just have to keep building.

where's the hoop? shafer needs to finish that with a dunk
