The Greatest Show On Dome Turf?

God bless teenage recruits.  They just don't know any better than to blab about the semi-secret things that coaches tell them but won't tell us, the general public.  What would we do without them?

Take Sir Alec Lemon, for instance. Alec is the orally committed (heeheehee) WR out of Baltimore (where all SU recruits come from).  He's remained committed to the Orange despite the coaching change and is excited about the new opportunities that will exist in the Doug Marrone Era when it comes to offensive schemes:

“I feel like with a new coaching staff coming in, we can start the program up again, start all over,” Lemon said. “From what I heard, we’re supposed to run a spread no-huddle and that’s good for me.”

Cam Dantley's arm.  Mike Williams on one side, Donte Davis on the other and Marcus Sales in the slot.  Antwon Bailey in the flat. 

I'm in.

It's no surprise to hear this, Marrone and Spence have both intimated this is the direction of SU football.  And I have to say...what the hell took so long?

If we are running a spread

Garrett Barnas is the odds on favorite to be the starter. He ran it in JUCO and can run better than anyone on our roster. Is he going to be around for spring ball?

Personally I did not think they were going to make the change this quickly… considering the personnel we have. Im not just talking about the skill positions, but you need an athletic offensive line… not to our favor.

Im more curious about what sort of D we are going to run. Stay with the Tampa 2 4-3? Id like to see us switch to a zone blitz 3-4. That way we dont need to recruit specialists but rather athletes. It also means more speed for stopping spread teams like WVU.

Whoops

New information makes one third of your post irrelevant. All that typing for nothing.

Just saw that

WTF? A Rob is going to run the spread? This had better be because the new OC has someone else in mind because that was a dick move.

First of all, Alec Lemon

Kickass name. I say we make sure the Sir sticks.

Second, glad to hear it about the offense. Should be fun.
