Justin Pugh bulks up for Syracuse - Big East Blog - ESPN
His play got him a second-team All-Big East selection and has him firmly in the conversation as one of the best tackles in the league. What does he do for an encore? For starters, Pugh spent the summer bulking up. Last season he was a bit undersized at 285 pounds. Now he’s up to 300 pounds.
Revised college hoops preseason Top 25 - College Basketball - Rivals.com
5. Syracuse – Other than leading rebounder Rick Jackson, the Orange return every key player from a team that went 27-8 last season. Jim Boeheim’s club will tout one of the deepest backcourts in the country with Brandon Triche, Scoop Jardine, Michael Carter-Williams and Dion Waiters. Senior Kris Joseph is one of the top forwards in the Big East. He averaged 14.4 points last season. Syracuse is hoping 7-foot center Fab Melo makes significant strides following a disappointing freshman season.

Syracuse takes double hit - Big East Blog - ESPN
Incidents like this are never good for your program, but the timing is obviously even worse with the opening of fall camp just days away. Marrone is in Newport, R.I., for Big East media days, and no doubt will be asked for more information when he addresses reporters.
Waters at the Boeheim Fantasy Camp: I meet my camp counselors and I think I'm in trouble | syracuse.com
After a while a group of very large, very tall men came into the room. Billy Owens. Derrick Coleman. Lawrence Moten, Herman Harried. Roosevelt Bouie. These are our "camp counselors.’’ Much to my dismay, these guys seem to remember stuff that I wrote about them during their careers. Actually, to quote Roger Clemens, I think they mis-remember what I wrote about them during their careers.
Orange::44: Marcus Sales Sells Drugs?
Marcus Sales is, as we say in the legal world, f****d. Probably. Not even looking at the possibility of going to state prison, Sales has almost certainly ruined his college career and, quite possibly, any hopes at a professional career.

Why is Syracuse University's Doug Marrone already No. 2 in seniority among Big East football coaches? | syracuse.com
In 2009, Marrone was the league’s only rookie head coach. His taking over for fired Greg Robinson at SU less than three years ago seems almost boring compared to the soap opera quality surrounding the changes at some other Big East schools — and that’s a good thing.
