18. Belichick hasn't exactly employed many fullbacks in recent years, so it was an eye-opener when he signed two of them this offseason. I came across an interesting stat, though. In their careers, Spencer Larsen and Tony Fiammetta have combined for just 28 carries for 88 yards. However, they've turned 11 of those carries (39.3 percent) into first downs. Not bad.

Love that Gargoyle picture. Must admit that is exactly how I feel some days.

This Elliott guy is becoming more pathetic everyday.

surprised to read the Connor Mitch article - said that he was a pro-style QB, not much of a running threat at all and had a Syracuse offer. Seems to go against the recent trend for SU QB recruiting. I wonder if they don't feel the dual threat QBs are panning out so they're trying to bring in a pro-style QB just in case?

I agree...thought the same thing. Time for him to grow up. He had his chances and blew it.

If you watch his film though the kid exclusively runs the spread, one back set, out of the shotgun. I think he's exactly what Syracuse is looking for - or what they'd prefer to do.

Here is a thread on him

Anybody know if Conner Mitch is related to the early 1970's SU QB BobMitch?

"That link on Connor Mitch, one of the top rising senior HS QBs in the country, is of special interest to Syracuse fans because his dad is Bob Mitch, who played QB at Syracuse in the mid 1970s. Getting him would be big. Too bad Bob didn't play with Doug at Syracuse."
