Looking Back....Looking Ahead


Newsflash:
If you didn't watch Saturday night you missed some fine punting from Rob Long. But thats not why we're here today. In case you reside under a large rock the inevitable finally happened yesterday. The right move was made, but should have been made damn sooner. I'll spare you the numbers because Lord knows we all know just how bad Orange footballl has gotten.
• T3I sent Greggers off in style.
• TNIAAM took the liberty of preparing Robinson's resume for him.
• The Axeman sorts through the rubble.
• Donnie Webb weighs in with his top candidates.
Aside from College Football's Ugliest Uniforms, GRob does leave the quad sporting 2-0 record against in-state juggernaut Buffalo and bragging rights for sticking it to Louisville the past two seasons.
Doc Hollywood has assured SU fans far and wide that he's ahead of the game this time.
"To say we're ahead of the game is an understatement, - I want to work at this at Godspeed, to get it done. If I could get it done yesterday, I would. But we want to get it done the right way and be really smart about it and figure out every angle on this to make sure we can win."
Pete Carroll, that's you cue to sit by the phone and answer on the third ring.
We've been hearing all summer/fall about how Gross is going to have the 'first pick in the draft', and how he's got 10 trillion dollars to spend on the next coach. Unfortunatley ClemPson, Washington, Tennessee, among others all got a head start out of the gate. Word from D Webb is that Randy Edsall is the leading cadidate and is actually interested in the job. I still think we missed that boat back in 2004 but since Edsall hasnt flat out denied interest in the SU job, who knows. Hell, if he inks to a deal with Gross at least it'll make the UConn/Syracuse football rivalry just as heated as the hoops rivalry. Wasnt Axe saying not too long ago that Syracuse doesnt have a primary rival anymore?? Hmmmm.....
