Last week Greg Robinson's squad was off, so the the good news in that is that Syracuse didn't lose. The bad news is that the team is still on ESPN's infamous list, Bottom 10, and Greg Robinson is still on the Hot Seat rankings.

Well, the bye week came and went, Greg Robinson is still the head coach at Syracuse, Dr. Daryl Gross is still the athletic director and this Saturday the Orange will (probably) lose again. Guess some things never change, do they?

I know that we began "Orange in the League" so short ago and right away we have to stop it. But it's not because of not trying, it's because the NBA isn't going to play any more games until it opens the regular season on Tuesday , October 28th.

It sounds like the 8:00 p.m. Midnight Madness was a great success. From the first blog I found from the Daily Orange, sounds like everyone from the packed house had a great time, especially a lovely elderly lady who danced with Jonny Flynn.

Tonight is (earlier than) Midnight Madness for the Syracuse basketball teams at Manley Field House, which holds 9,500 fans. From what I have heard the tickets have been all sold out for the event, and if you aren't going you are probably missing something good from how the hype is going around.
