FB Recruiting

Technology Hurts Us All

Who decides that S.U. ranks 117th on this list? Was Greg Paulus the deciding factor in a photo finish over, ahem, Air Force (118th)?

Getting Facebook-busted may lead to domestic violence (allegedly).

Seeing the end of a Twitter era has dimmed the of the Orange Empire.

Look at the¬†Rivals.com football recruiting rankings and life as an S.U. fan doesn’t get any better.

Existence on the blogustweetustechnosphere has been putrid for the Orange faithful. Alas, back to those football rankings.

The Fizz is wondering just who decides that S.U. ranks 117th on this list?

Was Greg Paulus the deciding factor in a photo finish over, ahem, Air Force (118th)?

Did Ricky Aliifua tip the scales for Utah State (116th)?

It seems about as arbitrary as an Onondaga County Legislature vote.

Well, let’s break down this¬†2009 class to see what it actually is.

Sixteen recruits make up the class, five 3-star recruits and the rest 2-stars (save for unranked John Mark Henderson).

Interesting to note there are no running backs or fullbacks on that list.

Whichever ’09 recruits are on the field, it’s going down when the ‘Cuse plays it’s next closest recruiting rival (Louisville @ 76).

And a three-peat against the Cards seems much more likely than a tweet from Coach Marrone in the next few months.
