The Future of Syracuse Football: "There's Fish Out There, But Where God Only Knows"

As Cole Murphy's kick sailed straight through the uprights and Syracuse ended its ten week wait for a victory, I like many of you, felt justifiably happy. But with the backdrop of Scott Shafer's dismissal, Riley Dixon's final punted ball in an SU uniform, and the reality that we just completed our eighth losing season in the last 12 years, I also felt weary... weary of losing so many and winning so few. Weary of the uncertainty that comes with a change in staff. Weary of seeing the stands in the Carrier Dome growing smaller and smaller. Weary of feeling once again like I survived the season more than I enjoyed it.
