We Meet Again: Rutgers and Syracuse Could Play Twice in 2012
Desperate times call for desperate measures, and the Big East is content to keep on keepin’ on. With West Virginia nearing their Big East buyout, some talks have surfaced about potential scheduling issues if they indeed leave early, which – barring any massive breakdowns – should happen. If the Big East cannot grab another team [...]

The Fizz Ranks Syracuse’s Top-5 Impact Recruits in the Football Class of ’12
247Sports.com
Doug Marrone’s 4th recruiting class was an encouraging one for Syracuse fans. A well-rounded group of 22 recruits signed with the Orange, despite last year’s 5-game collapse which capped off one of the worst decades in Syracuse football history. Luckily, SU succeeded where many critics felt it couldn’t, and this crop has a little bit of everything...

Meet Syracuse’s Class of ’12: OL Jason Emerich – Spurned UConn for the Orange
Doug Marrone was building back the trenches this year, and Jason Emerich will add to that nicely. The 275 lb. offensive lineman from Blue Mountain High School in Pennsylvania says relationships were the key for him:
“It was definitely the way I got along with the coaches and the players that was the number one thing for me.”
Emerich committed to Syracuse back in June and has...

Via: Syracuse University backup quarterback Terrel Hunt was taken into custody Tuesday after police say he stole an item from the Hollister store at Carousel Mall. Police say Hunt took a $44 bottle of Breakline fragrance from the store, concealing it in a shopping bag before exiting. Seems like a logical reason to risk your scholarship.

Syracuse Orange: 2011 Exit Survey
Doug Marrone made big strides in his second year at the helm of the Syracuse Orange and led them to an 8-4 record and a bowl victory. After such a surprising season it was only natural for a bit of a letdown in year three for Marrone. For starters, Syracuse had to replace the Big East's third leading rusher as Delone Carter and his 1,233 yards used up their eligibility in 2010...

ENJOYING HIS RETIREMENT
Carson Palmer tailgated at USC-Syracuse game
Where is Carson Palmer these days? Hanging out with fatty USC jersey chasers at the Trojans-Syracuse game. It seems the Bengals former franchise QB would rather slam Tecate’s (red can in a koozie = Tecate) than be in Denver for an NFL game. Your call, bro, but this tailgate looks pretty weak compared to throwing TD passes to stud A.J. Green.
Again, sticking to your guns means...

Some of the best backs in NCAA history lived on the hill and played at Archibold Stadium under coaching greats like Ben Schwartzwalder. So I thought it would be good to look back at the five greatest of all-time on the eve of football season. Maybe we can muster up some of the magic these...
