Message: [QUOTE="Rocco, post: 1215939, member: 51"] Good post. Until the university steps up and 100% supports the football program, we shouldn't expect anything better than 8-5 or maybe 9-4. Improving the program is simply not a major priority at this school and that is the bitter truth. Had it not been in large part due to the football program, Syracuse wouldn't be in this new annual windfall of TV money. We got invited to join the ACC mainly, if not exclusively, because of football. A perfect world would include a slew of major private donations, along with the school at least doubling those efforts. So with that, I think Shafer fits in and I remain cautiously optimistic he will turn it around. And I digress... [/QUOTE]
