Exactly... I took major issue with that reasoning. She won't know how good we are until we play Miami, but if we beat Miami, that's another ding on Miami's record so they can't be good. The mental gymnastics to come up with reasoning like that boggle the mind, and she was tasked with writing about and speaking for us when we were at our most recent peak. As I said, I'm thankful she's moved on.

To whoever picks up Jeep's tickets:

From All of Us That Can't Go, with love.

I was there too, in the North end zone metal bleachers. Forgot how much was at stake and that we were #4 playing that rare ranked team and looking for respect. Re-watching it now, there goes my plans for Saturday morning, ha ha. But this was a be-ee-a-u-tiful game.

Or SU is down so badly, and they've been physically beat up so badly we put out our 6th string defense which is a collection of water and Gatorade coolers. Sure cooler #6 recorded 15 tackles including 6 for a loss, but cooler #4 gets burned in secondary twice by Etta-Tawo. SU has to go for the desperation 2 even though everyone else knew it was garbage time.

What's wrong with her assessment is that she said she'll know more about us after our game with Miami....but if we beat Miami, it's because they're bad, not because we're good. It's like dismissing Bama by saying we won't know anything about them till the CFP, but if they win the CFP, it's only because they're better than everyone else this year.

My main point being, it sounds like she's going to hold off on giving us any credit for as long as possible, for some unknown, possibly personal reason. But that's all I'm going to rag on ol' HD for today.

If anyone here was not around during the days of the Big East conference, you owe it to yourself to read up on how VT was jerked around. It is almost unbelievable. We spent 5 years as a full member and never received a penny in revenues from the basketball TV contract. You had a coach (Boeheim) who told the league commissioner he refused to travel to Blacksburg and the conference honored his wishes. Not to mention the fiasco from 1994, which is another reason to despise Syracuse.
