Message: [QUOTE="Orangeyes, post: 712373, member: 34"] Some comments on the articles and videos above. Make sure you watch the documentary done by former linebacker Dan Vaughan, it was not only well done but insightful as well. The Nick Provo piece had what can only be a misquote about SU not using a no huddle. Nick has high praise for Coach Hackett and how it was no fun before his arrival. If he sticks with the Bills he's sure to be a favorite with the fans as he and his family bleed Bill's. Syracuse currently has 19 players in NFL camps. It doesn't hurt that two head coaches played & coached here. Players like Provo and Zach Chibane can thank that connection for their opportunities. Justin Pugh and Ryan Nassib were picked up by Tom Coughlin in the 1st and 4th rounds. Shamarko kicked down the door in Pittsburgh on his own with his amazing combine performances. SU has tremendous representation in the Halls of Fame for both college and professional football. Some of the greatest players at their positions are honored in each. These are things I'm sure the staff points out to prospective players. The Hackett video is fun, he has such youthful enthusiasm for the game of football. Hopefully Coach McDonald picks up where he left off. The SUA links are outstanding, the improvement in their content is quite a noticeable upgrade. The respect and appreciation our players have for the men and women who serve our country is something money can't buy. The four days spent at Fort Drum will be four days that will change their perspective forever. Coach Shafer should bulletin board the comment after the Groupon piece. That Mackey photograph is one of my all-time favorites, it is the essence of northeast Syracuse toughness. I don't know why blog writers think walk-ons are fair game for disrespectful comments. I for one have a great appreciation for their hard work and sacrifice for the good of the program. If you're a blogger, think twice before you demean these young Orangemen! [/QUOTE]
