Syracuse: Things are getting scary up there...

[Arizona Knight]

In the wake of the recent stabbings of two players by an ex-player, Dino Babers is now advising his team to avoid going out alone and to not wear Cuse gear in public. Apparently the perp of the stabbing attack is a local with a checkered past and know associations with bad people. Said bad people have now been making threats against the current players.

Very scary situation up there that I hope gets under control in a hurry before more people get hurt.

Two take homes for me; recruiting character kids needs to be non-negotiable (looking at our school too) and I would support a "war" on gangs. These guys aren't protecting a neighborhood anymore, they are criminal organizations. Send in the troops.

What a dump. Now this.

 

[RU4Real]

"getting"?

 

[rucoe89]

Kid from Bosco heading up there is up for a rude awaking from the sheltered life at prep school.

Nothing new here. Remember Marvin Harrison? major gang/mob ties in Philly

 

[RutgersUnion]

There was an Al Pacino movie about this I think it was called Insomnia. Polar nights can really mess with a persons head and cause them to do crazy things.

Didn't that guy murder someone?

That was a very good movie! Robin Williams playing against type as a bad guy. Good plot, good action, good scenery.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Let's remember that it's a gritty city up there and not a rural cow tipping region like in University Park, PA.

 

[mikemarc1]

Cause this could NEVER happen in New Brunswick!!!!!

Hope nothing terrible happens, and hope they get the thugs off the streets.

Another Cuse thread. Over 150 posts in another thread. 20 in another. Way more posts compare to theirs. Just sayin

 

[Caliknight]

"Theirs"...lol.

And your sample size is way to small. Try again.

My point is just because they made one thread and put all the posts togther doesnt mean its more than whats here. I see alot of SU threads created. Seems like every few weeks here and people go all out with their comments lol. There are times when people dont post for months in that thread on that Cuse sites. If you combine all the threads together here it would be more. Im sure

 

[jakeknight]

Let it go, not worthy of comment, they are no longer on our radar.

 

[mychaljohn]

Maybe when Babers recommended they stop wearing their Cuse gear around campus, it had nothing to do with the stabbings.

If you really believe that, you are nuts. Someone posted that thread here months ago. It had hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of posts.

All the posts here ever about that dump wouldn't be 5%.

It was pretty flattering to see how much we are in their heads though. Apparently it is as strong as ever.

Their accomplishment is that much more impressive when you consider that there are only about 5 active posters on their board.

The thread is 3 years old, of course. lol. All the SU posts Ive seen here in 3 years. Its crazy, The devito post has 150 posts in 4 days. Do the math.

That's actually a good point. 5 posters. Why are people upset with 5 guys who post in a useless thread? There are millions of other SU fans. Its funny how that thread is always talk about here, because of those 5 guys. There's alot more than 5 guys bashing SU in this forum.

 

[RU4Real]

There are millions of other SU fans.

I assure you, there are not.

 

[money3189]

I assure you, there are not.

I knew that was coming. Good one. lol

 

[rutgersdave]

They posted today about the Rutgers Alumni game because the Syracuse fans are obsessed.

Sorry man, if a coach is telling his players not to wear school colors out of fear of gang violence, that's a topic worthy of discussion. It just so happens to be happening at Syracuse. If this was at Wake Forest, I would have brought it up.

I did. They would be less than 5%. You and your 7 bros are totally infatuated. Just own it. It's all out there for everyone to see.

Penn St., Michigan, OSU all get talked about far more than the school whose program we took does. GS at your lunch and your fellow fans just can't get over it.

If it makes you feel better, I wouldn't be upset to see you guys as our homecoming game every year.

Its been discussed to get rid of the thread because most of them feel the same way you guys feel about us. We dont play anymore so whats the relevance? What makes them feel better is that they are getting a reaction out of you guys, Thats the only reason they keep it going. Everytime there's a reaction or a mention of SU in this forum its talked about over there. The bashing at me doesnt affect me, but it would effect those guys. I see no purpose for Cuse and Rutgers to play. BTW GS was 2-2 gainst the battle of solid coaches. G Rob might have been the worse HC of all time in all of sports so those should have been wins by you. Everyone else beat us too.I wouldnt brag about that.

 

[vkj91]

I've only been to Cuse a few times but compared to the look of the rest of the student body, I don't quite think it's the SU athletic gear that is gonna tip the perp off.

The reaction you are getting is being laughed at. Congrats. You have a dedicated, hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of posts thread about a school you don't even play anymore. No other school has this. None.

It makes you look like infatuated losers. Which you are.

 

[MADHAT1]

In other words :Gone, but not forgotten.[winking]

 

[ruthetiger]

What makes our program so different? Remember the problems over the summer ?

I totally agree with you. Senseless to have a thread of a team you dont play. But again there threads here too. You probably should go there and express that. You will probaly enjoy their reaction. I dont have a reation. I enjoy Rutgers football. Again I wish you guys well

 

[RUtrumpet92]

It is newsworthy and a big difference if their head coach is telling the team not to wear certain clothing around campus so they will not be targeted by gangs. I'm not a Syracuse fan but this situation needs to be stopped if true.

We've had plenty of terrible coaches in our history too, but we don't get to pretend certain games didn't happen.

Sad that the guys on that forum get a kick out of being noticed here. Seems they should be more concerned with Wake Forest, BC, and all of the other boring and disjointed rivals you now play.

No. It wouldn't. Not even close.

...but your wins over our Shea teams are ok to brag about when cuse tries to claim recent superiority?

I don't think anyone pretends its didn't happen. Its talked about alot. Worse era of SU football

 

[money3189]

Joe P.

Yeah I heard Shea was a bad coach. He had the program for only 5 years. Cuse won prior to his tenure. Cuse fans should totally ignore the series record before Schiano's tenure?

 

[money3189]

No. It wouldn't. Not even close.


Joe P.

so you counted the amount of SU mention from this forum during the last 3 years?

 

[JoeRU0304]

Yes, using the same mathematical formula you did to come to your conclusion, but I used it more gooder than you.

...also, kind of contradictory to say 'should cuse not count prior to Schiano?' while seemingly trying to pretend the G-Rob years somehow don't count.

Joe P.

Contradictory? never said they didn't count. I just stated facts and you came up with your own assumption with my comment. Not trying to pretend anything. lol. Its obvious Rutgers was better than Cuse that era, they had a better coach in Schiano and a better program at the time. Syracuse was better for several decades prior. This is not hard
