a vent
Crazy top ten
Considering the chain of events that has happened yesterday I have decided to count down the craziest SU football moments over the last five years
Syracuse ties Iowa late in the fourth quarter teaching me a lesson I will never forget, never get out of your seats early you never know what will happen. Watching the two overtimes from the far end zone I was astonished to watch Grob and company call the same play 8 times in a row and not getting in the end zone once
Considering Syracuse lost to Akron few would have predicted an upset on the forfront. With the win one for the grob campaign in full effect SU upset ND putting Charlie Wiese over the fire of the hot seat. Still in disbelief
8. SU VS Akron 2008 Akron walks into the dome and wins convincingly
Asked if Syracuse plays Akron 1000 times how many should we win, Grob replies with "we should win more than we lose!" Then the good doctor was asked the same question, his answer, "1000" ding ding ding we have a winner.
7. The Search for a new coach.
Doug Marrone is hired but is he choice number one or 10, I would go with the later considering chip Kelly, Randy Edsell and skip holtz all turned down the job. Somebody needs to teach Gross the art of the closed door
6. Grob Brought back for year 4 of his contract
After winning a combined seven games in his first 3 years he is brought back to produce a mind blowing 3-9 record in year four only to be fired ¾ of the way through
Paulus finishes his last year at duke and picks SU to play for one year. He then is announced the starter during the first week of class confirming to the world how pathetic SU football really is
4. The boos rain down from the heaven I mean the student section
Really, pathetic you should all transfer to another school preferably in the sec where you will be dealt with accordingly. What the fuck where you people thinking. Way to make a great impression on future recruits
3. Nancy Cantor pulling Colt Brennans scholarship
The perfect move from the two foot troll who single handily put Syracuse in a hole for four years and insuring GROB departure. What did Brennan do, only led the nation in passing and td's for two years, great job Nancy maybe you should stick to your own thing like the great corridor which will later be renamed the rapist tunnel!
I can't just have one moment here. Mike cheats on test and leaves su. He then takes a year off get his studies back on track only to come back and make the I let everyone down speech and lead the Orange in every receiving category except dropped balls where Lavar has that record wrapped up. He is then listed on the top ten for the biletnikoff trophy to only quit a few days later. Really I'm still in shock
1 The little engine that could.
During Grobs departure and begging to be considered to be the next coach for SU he pulls out the little engine that could and starts to read insuring the award for craziest thing I have ever seen.
