It’s only January commits don’t start to roll in until spring.
Yes they are for now
We already have 8 commits.
Nine.
I truly hope they didn't have any recruiting visits during that below zero stretch of weather. Just reschedule.
Had Junior day
imagine crying about weather
To be honest a big reason I live in FL is because of the weather.
the weather in central ny sucks and is depressing a large chunk of the year. I grew up there, my parents still live there (and i hate visiting in the winter), and there's parts of it i absolutely love... but i totally understand an 18 year old kid not wanting to deal with 3 to 5 months of winter. Especially an 18 year old who grew up in South Florida. I was in Miami a few weeks ago while CNY was getting multiple feet of snow. I wasn't about to leave Miami to go visit my parents.
Flip side is having 80-90% humidity from May through October and June through August living in an oven while CNY is gorgeous. If you're not on or near the water in Florida Summers aren't that great.
They are scared. They know we have corrected the QB issue and our receivers are going to kill it next year.
Mentioning weather in recruiting and actually having it make a difference is ridiculous. Not to mention they practice in doors and play home games inside a dome. Who cares about putting on a jacket when you go outside in the Winter. Fall in upstate NY is better than anywhere else in the country. A lot of people, including myself, couldn’t deal with the year round heat and humidity in places like Miami.
Gameday weather at Miami is much more likely to be an issue than at Syracuse.
It’s not only about what positions we are willing to pay for. It’s also about successfully recruiting that position and convincing the player to want you over the other schools at that position. We can sell the WR spot more right now than some others. Hopefully after next year that changes with the coaching upgrades we’ve made creating better results at those positions and then we can start convincing better OL and DL and LB’s to come to SU.
Well it’s a factor in this recruitment from confirmed sources.
So it's either stay home in Miami or move to beautiful CNY for a few years.
Calvin is definitely a big part for sure
