Report Card for the 2012-13 Syracuse basketball team | The Juice Online
CJ Fair, A: Raise your hand if you’re excited to see Fair as a senior? He seems to have, as he puts it, transitioned from "fitting in" to "standing out."

"Here's a guy who went 3-0 against Geno Smith,'' Gruden said. "Imagine this pressure: Syracuse is expected to be pretty good last year, and they start 0-2, and they've losing to Stony Brook at home at halftime the next week. He brings them back there to win. They beat Louisville. They win at Missouri. They really handle West Virginia in the bowl game. Those are some good wins, now. And they do it after changing their offense two weeks before the start of the regular season. I like the way he plays. I like the way he handled his own people booing him.''

"I want more guys, I want more competition, and I work for a head coach that feels the same way," Daoust said. "My deal is inside or outside, we're gonna play the best four, and hopefully that takes eight or nine guys to get the best four out there. We played eight guys last year. We'll do it again this year."
