It's Go Time

The Syracuse football team takes the field for it's first fall practice under new coach Doug Marrone at 5 pm Monday afternoon. For the first time in years, Syracuse fans actually have hope for the future. Some are so fired up they have their dials set at cautious optimism, which is saying something given the last four years.

The coach has put an added emphasis on weight training and actually testing the players to make sure they are getting stronger and faster. Hopefully it pays off. To be fair to former coach Greg Robinson, actually testing players is a concept that hadn't really been developed when his weight training mentor was working in the business.
