Since 2005 Syracuse has started 7, 6, 7, 8, 9, 8, 9, 8, 7, 4, 3, 3, 4, 6, 4, 4, 5 and 5 whites. This year they are projected to start 5 once again.


Dino Babers returns again for his 8th year of an underwhelming tenure as head coach of the orange. He is 36-49 coming into the 2023 season. The demographics of this team have remained pretty stable over the course of his tenure with a very low number of White athletes starting as well as mediocre results on the field. Their are a few interesting players including dual threat QB Garrett Shrader who is of course overlooked in the overall college landscape. DB Justin Barron is a great player as well, one of the better DBs in the conference.


Players to look out for include TE Dan Villari (Michigan Transfer/former QB), WR Nate Wellington, OL Wes Hoeh, OL Mark Petry, LB Josh Kubala, LB Austin Roon

Hoping for big years from McDonald and Barron in Defense! Shrader makes them somewhat watchable on O.

McDonald has 27 tackles and 1.5 sacks

Barron is tied for the team lead, with 45 tackles. He’s also has an interception. 6’4 230 he’s been tracked on CF for a while now. Should get a look at next level as a LB.

Shrader has 387 rush yards and 6TDs. As well as 1200 throwing and 8TDs to 5INTs. Potential position switch in NFL?

Dan Villari went off last weekend from his wildcat packages and ended up dominating the box score for Syracuse in their 28-13 win over Pitt.

He was a former "preferred walk-on" quarterback at Michigan and parlayed that into a scholarship with the Orange. To my knowledge, he'd never been given this much opportunity.

Obviously a Taysom Hill type... maddening that no other program in D1 could have figured out how to use his skills until injury happened at his consolation program.

Replaced with a new magical negro.. Check out this outright lie and Anti White rhetoric from the article..

There’s really no natural recruiting footprint for Syracuse within 100 miles. The Orange travel into New Jersey, the DMV and Philadelphia to reach true Northeast football hotbeds. That lack of homegrown talent will require Brown and his staff to identify hidden gems and develop.

Funny thing is Babers brought in plenty of "electricity" and sucked for most of his tenure. Syracuse has been one of the most consistently anti-White teams since we started tracking White starters yet they keep on going back to the dried up coal mine.

Rooting for McCord but the narrative that article is trying to be pushed has been debunked by Caste football tracking Syracuse since 2005.

Here are the records:
2005: 1-10
2006: 4-8
2007: 2-10
2008: 3-9
2009: 4-8
2010: 8-5
2011: 5-7
2012: 8-5
2013: 7-6
2014: 3-9
2015: 4-8
2016: 4-8
2017: 3-9
2018: 10-3
2019: 5-7
2020: 1-10
2021: 5-7
2022: 7-6

"Electricity" aka a negro saturated roster does not equate to success.

Maybe Syracuse should actually try and find some hidden gems in their 100 mile radius and leave the inner city ghettos of the Northeast alone!

This would require the coaching staff and recruiting team to actually look at game film from the hundreds of schools in that radius and find players the hard way. Much easier to just look at what the recruiting services post. Of course the services don't look at any of those schools either because they lack "talent" so there is no help there. Just think of what the boosters and alumni would do with the ZERO star rating of the recruiting class if those local HS's were recruited! There would be hell to pay! Safer to just go to the old tapped-out coal mine.

100 percent accurate! The system is rigged.

I suspect those that are boosters for these programs are much more likely to perpetuate that caste system than to push back against it.

College athletics is such a weird mishmash of pro and amateur elements. Public universities paying millions to football coaches even though the governor of a state makes far less (not that I care, most of them are useless too). Now students are paid to play and they transfer continuously which ruins continuity, and these mega conferences have crushed traditional rivalries.


It’s like college sports have the worst elements of free market businesses and government run schools all at once.

Syracuse is private but there are lots of public examples too. It’s just the nature of the beast now
