Despite the rainy day, the show went on for Syracuse Orange supporters today and Plaza 44 was officially unveiled. Statues of Syracuse Football legends Ernie Davis, Jim Brown and Floyd Little were revealed, as was a statue of famed SU coach Ben Schwartzwalder.
There was no live-stream of the event (Because SU Athletics) so we only had tweets to rely on to give us the goods...

Unfortunately, it looks one of the greats being honored has defected from Syracuse University.
Brown says he will be a "supporter of University of Syracuse for many more years."
