FB | Swan song: Syracuse's Senior Day ends in disaster as Orange fall 39-14 to UConn

Abstract:
Well, at least it wasn't boring.

There were plenty of big plays in Syracuse's Senior Day contest between the Orange and Connecticut. Two punts were blocked. Another was returned for a touchdown. An interception was returned for a score, too. Curtis Brinkley soared through the air at the goal line....

How many times has it been written. Nancy Cantor has been pushed out of the last 2 institutions she's been at .. We wish it would happen @ Syracuse. Her fundraising program built on the back of schools with momentum BEFORE she arrived -- is now at a full stop. She thumbed her nose at alums and now we just don't like her. Her chosen athletic director is a fraud whose inflated CV she swallowed. Great insight for someone with a PhD in psychology. The on-campus Hookah Parlor opened by scholarship players is an appalling symbol of the failing football team -- along with a few choice low character player skirmishes with "problem events" off campus. Her left wing politics might get her an invite to a few meetings here and there but the sad truth she was not even among the Fortune magazine Top 100 Powerful Women event on the West Coast. She is a self-impressed loser -- just like her athletic director. Pathetic. Nancy Cantpr and Daryl Gross both should be terminated.

Nancy Cantor and Daryl Gross have destroyed a long, proud, wonderful tradition at SU. My heart breaks for these seniors. I wish it had been different for them. I wish they got to feel what it was like to be part of a program that the school had pride in. Thanks Cantor and Gross. I have yet to run into an alum that is happy with either of that deadly duo.

I PROUDLY ADD MY NAME TO THE LIST OF ALUMNI WHO DO NOT LIKE NOR APPROVE OF CHANCELLOR NANCY CANTOR, NOR HER CHOSEN ATHLETIC DIRECTOR DARYL GROSS. MY THOUGHTS AND NAME ARE IN CAPS. WE KNOW WHAT A PAIR OF LOSERS YOU BOTH ARE. THE RECENT NEWS ABOUT A SMOKING PARLOR OPENED BY FOOTBALL TEAM MEMBERS IS SYMBOLIC OF NANCY'S MIS-GUIDED IDIOCY. SHE BELONGS AS NATIONAL DIRECTOR OF SOME LESBIAN & GAY ASSN -- NOT MY ALMA MATER. DARYL GROSS IS BETTER QUALIFIED AS A PR GUY ART SOME AMUSEMENT PARK HOLLYWOOD. IT'S A SAD JOKE THAT PETE CARROLL'S DISDAIN FOR DARYL'S ANTICS CAUSED HIS RECOMMENDATION OF A BURNED OUT COACH FOR SYRACUSE UNIV. PAYBACK FOR ALL THOSE SELFISH & STUPID GAMES DARYL PLAYED ON THE SIDELINES AT USC.
