Ryan Nassib Is Your Starter (For Now)

Supreme Chancellor Doug Marrone appeared on the Bud & The Manchild Show today and shared some thoughts on the current Syracuse Stage production.  Oh, and, football.

  • Marrone confirms that Greg Paulus did not sign a contract.  He did say however that "It's a shame that we don't have a Greg Paulus for another year."  The Ryan Nassib Era, ladies and gentlemen!
  • That said, "As of right now, Ryan Nassib is going in as our starting quarterback."  It's about as solid a confirmation as you're gonna get these days.
  • "I believe in Eastern football."
  • On Delone Carter: "If Delone Carter is enrolled in school, then he's a part of the football team.  If Delone Carter's not enrolled in school, then he can't be part of the football program.  As of right now he's not going to be enrolled in school and he's not going to be a part of the football program until the process of getting re-enrolled takes place."
  • How long should it take to turn around a college football program?  "It all depends on how people view the program.  My expectations are to win right away."

If you do listen to the podcast, take a drink every time Doug says "standpoint."  Hope you didn't have Wednesday night plans.

Eastern Football is...

Cinci, Louisville, Memphis, South Florida, Central Florida, and East Carolina.

That sounds like

Conference USA football. Can’t wait.

That Delone Carter blurb is coachiest coach-speach I've heard in awhile.

Also, I am actually looking forward to the Nassib Era. Paulus did admirably for coming in after not playing for four years, but I have more faith in Nassib now that’s he’s had some playing experience and several years in the program. I would trust Loeb for that matter too. I doubt one of the freshman will win the job, but if they do, then they would have to be prety impressive, so I’m all for that too.

"Eastern Football"

…used to be power running, big offensive linemen, running between the tackles. I don’t think anyone currently coaching believes in that anymore.

Orange you glad it's not football season?

Pretty soon, won't they be one and the same?

OR DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?!?!?!

Ask RichRod

Some Big Ten programs still embrace this philosophy, or incorporate aspects of it into their offensive schemes. Of course, most of the scheming RichRod focuses on concerns his salary.

Agreed

If we can’t have a solid OL doesn’t matter who is @ QB or RB. They were better last yr then previous few yrs but have a ways to go.

Here's hoping...

…their drives last more than three plays. Run, Pass, Pass, Punt. Or like last year, Pass, Run, Pass, Punt.

Orange you glad it's not football season?

by SUMB44 on May 13, 2010 10:25 AM EDT up reply actions  

Actually...

Last year was more like: Pass, Run, Run, Fumble. or Pass, Run, Pass, Interception.

Allred threatens fellow ambulance chaser with libel/defamation lawsuit...
One of the key contests in Syracuse's march to the national championship in 1959 was a titanic clash with unbeaten Penn State on Nov. 7, 1959 in University Park, PA. The Nittany Lions were ranked No. 7 and the Orangemen No. 4. 

The 20-18 victory propelled Syracuse to the No. 1 in both the AP and UPI polls which they held for the remainder of the season to claim the consensus National Championship. This is the Universal Newsreel account of that contest.
