Class of 2026 WR Calvin Russell (FL) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (7/5/25)

[DocFlanders]

But here’s the catch: the system inflated those stats. Nixon’s offense has consistently produced high passing yardage totals, regardless of who’s under center.

Huh? Collins and Filardi must not have gotten that memo...

some of these young men never want the process to end

They love the experience to much

lanorris sellers and calvin russel...what could have been

Sellers would have been awesome but we had no chance once South Carolina came calling...he literally told us during the recruitment and commitment that if South Carolina offered he would go there.

It was his dream school forever.

Good for him for excelling there...

But youre right that could have been deadly!

 

[Cusester]

Also folks should just enjoy being in the spotlight and wait for the end.

When Richmond talks I listen.

I am sure Clemson, LSU, and South Carolina figured their otherwise healthy, Heisman candidate QBs were a sure thing. All fell WAY short of expectations. There to dis no such thing as a sure thing. Arch Manning is going to be watching the playoffs just like the rest of us. Michigan's uber-expensive QB will be doing the same thing. And so on...

Sure, but Steve showed meh enough in 4 games whereas Arch played the against Utep year prior so it's hard to judge. Steve played against one top team in Tennessee, and two solidish teams in UConn and Clemson, so he was able to show it in games that wasn't just an expected easy win

Would also point out the obvious that we got an excellent season out of McCord and then a strong start from Angeli before he went down. Sellers is obviously a very intriguing NFL prospect and a likely 1st rounder if he comes out this year, but decent chance McCord was the better fit for us that first season anyways and we seem to have bounced back pretty well with Angeli too.

Thank you. I know people get bored or on tangents but can we focus on the recruit on his own thread.

Does Calvin Russell get his own press conference Friday? When he signs?

Does Calvin Russell get his own press conference Friday? When he signs?

Yes, it will be an individual signing and not a group signing like yesterday.

 

[orange79]

You didn’t answer my simple question. You claimed Calvin’s not coming because Steve is a question mark. so you’re doubling down?

He never answers simple questions when challenged. He just deflects, deflects, deflects.

 

[Ttk.gman2]

makes sense can’t wait to watch

 

[Ttk.gman2]

That's correct.

We will see tomorrow if your prediction is correct let’s leave it at that?

Not sure why people continue to engage with the OP. He is baiting people into inane debates. His rep is well established by now.

I know most of the mods, this isn't gonna be allowed to continue much longer, surprised it's reached this level to be honest.

Hypothetically, you put a P4 level QB in the system and they'll put 300 yds / game.

Your a cuck for Angeli

 

[Cusefan0307]

we will bring in capable guys who will compete and be able to push Steve / play if he can’t. Aka the opposite of this year.

But I’d wager a lot of money Steve is our QB in September. And I’m quite happy with that.

Also for what it’s worth Steve has gotten a lot of interest from other schools sniffing around who would gladly pay him to transfer there and be their QB.

Not shocked. Kid is locked in and we should be happy to have him. A few debating here were ready to be done with him here before he even took a snap.

Oh, so now having an opinion and backing it up with debate is “baiting”? Please. If you can’t handle someone challenging arguments, that’s on you, not me. Forums exist for discussion, not for echo chambers where everyone nods politely. I bring energy, facts, and passion and if that rattles you, maybe it’s because your takes can’t stand up to scrutiny. And as for being “surprised I’ve been allowed to stay”? I spark conversation, and I keep threads alive. If you want a quiet corner where nobody pushes back, go start a diary.

LMAO dude I've been on this board for 25+ years, your passion couldn't rattle me on your best day. Every single post is bitching about how bad the recruiting class is Russell not coming, how Angeli is etc etc etc. This isn't debating this some Rutgers fan level shtick. I am a glass half empty guy when it comes to SU and your even draining me with this crap.

Your conversation sparking is nothing but challenging any positive information and insiders with clear track records of being right. This isn't debating it's BS trolling.

You're not keeping this thread alive, you're creating made up discourse.

Who are those other schools. Appalchain State, James Madison? List them please.

Joey Aguilar was a small school transfer I believe app state. That worked out.

the QB from ole Miss was from Ferris state.

Very true but that should be a last resort (it is for me at least). Maybe this guy is a good fan and is just frustrated or whatever but no one should be the negative side of every argument.

That's not what you said. Keep clowning yourself
