Kyle McCord on the possibility of a waiver from the NCAA to play another year at Syracuse.

Agree.

Tualia got denied and he only handed the ball off in two of the games he played in IIRC. McCord threw the ball in 5 games in '21. Don't see how he has a better case than Tualia, who lost his case. No COVID year for McCord; I wonder if that's part of their argument somehow?

FWIW their Rivals insider posted some optimism today on McCord getting his waiver approved.

Oh in that case that may be their angle. I didn’t think he was even playing when that waiver was applicable.

Syracuse needs this one cause they struck out on Miller Moss, Weigman and Kaidon Salter. They need a QB really bad. If they don't get one then they're in a worst shape then we are.

Pena coming back at WR and they're rebuilding everywhere else

NCAA has always been strict about these things

Some player the other day was *****ing about how the NCAA denied him another year after he played 1 single snap in his 5th game

He was class of '21, enrolled at OSU in Jan '21.

Was just spit balling on what argument they could possibly use, since he has a worse case than Tualia. Would be ridiculous but maybe they try to argue: you'll have some kids an extra year so everybody must get an extra year. The Oprah: You get a car argument. I dunno; not a lawyer lol

Yeah they kinda up Schitt's Creek if they don't bring back McCord. LeQuint Allen can come back right?

I think Colandrea visited there too, if they want to do Troy Nunes v2 that's the ticket. I still think TVD might end up there.

I totally forgot about LeQuint Allen, I wonder what his deal is. I've watched a few Locked on Cuse episodes to see what they're up too and I didn't hear his name pop up. If he comes back that would be huge for them. They picked up some WR from Rutgers.

Colandrea wouldn't be a bad back up plan for them. He has those moments where he looks great but then he has those WTF moments.

They have the other UGA WR transfer Haynes, who left the team early in the season to deal with personal stuff and Ross-Simmons the transfer WR from CSU who was hurt most of the year, but came on at the end. I think they were expecting Ross-Simmons to be their #1 WR when the season started.

They just don't have a QB who can throw the ball. Lost their 2 best defensive players in Diggs and Wax too.

Guess Fran Brown just took his son, Fran Brown Jr in portal from Saint Francis (PA) lol - the new Louuuuu Cristobal. I wouldn't mind us kicking tires on their freshman corner in the portal Marcellus Barnes, he looked pretty good to me.

Fran nailed the portal last year. He found some really good nuggets unlike FSU, lets see if he can do it again in year number 2. Ross-Simmons must have played against Colorado in that crazy overtime game but I don't remember him much. He has that big size that they like to use for a WR. I know its only 1 year but I think Syracuse found the right coach and a really good OC

Being from wny I always root for cuse to succeed unless against us. Driving home from that disaster a couple weeks ago hurt man. Fran brown worked over the refs all game and then on cue Jacolby does his dumbass crap and we end up w fg.

There’s no way we should ever lose to them. But as we have seen having better talent on paper doesn’t cut it. I am hoping McCord doesn’t get another year. He really lit it up minus the Pitt game this year.

Fran and Dabo teaming up to clown us makes me so irate. Mario needs to figure something out and blow out year two going forward but I’m not holding my breath on that.

We either have really good kickers and punters or really bad like worst in the country. We were spoiled having both Borregales and Lou for all those years.

Doesn’t help every other snap is floated back there or rolled. Only positive I saw from Joyce was avoiding a block punt from Syracuse. He’s below average at best.
