Is it possible...



that Syracuse was even worse than we'd imagined? Today, the Orange named transfer Greg Paulus their starting quarterback. You know, the guy who hasn't played football in four years. The guy who new coach Doug Marrone has no reason to play knowing he'll be gone in a year and isn't really someone you're exactly going to build a program around.

But no, the other options at QB for the Orange were so bad, Marrone had no choice but to stick Paulus behind center.

I guess maybe Paulus could have quickly recovered his timing, throwing motion and mastered the 'Cuse offense. Maybe Paulus will lead the Orange to an upset over Minnesota and Penn State in the first two weeks. But probably not.

Yes. Syracuse is this bad. Marrone is doing this for the publicity. It's Lane Kiffin with an IQ.

They must suck, they're in the Big East. They should be swapped out of the BCS for the Mountain West.
