FB | When should Greg Robinson go? Now
He should go in the middle of the season
By Andy McCullough
Let's face it: This isn't a difficult argument to make. Why fire Syracuse football head coach Greg Robinson midseason? Jeez. The reasons stare everyone - the fans, the media, Syracuse Director of Athletics Daryl Gross - in the face. There's the dwindling attendance figures (the 27,549 turnout for Pittsburgh last Saturday was the lowest at home attendance since 1986) and the malaise and discontent of the fan base.
FB | When should Greg Robinson go? Later
Wait until the season is over to fire him
By John Clayton
We should get this out of the way before I'm labeled a Greg Robinson apologist: I'm not here to say this man shouldn't be fired. No coherent argument exists for that. An 8-32 record speaks for itself. Greg Robinson is gone. The only question is, when? But that's what this debate is about: timing.
FH | Loncarica helps No. 2 Syracuse stay unbeaten
By Conor Orr
Martina Loncarica bent over, clutching her hand, wincing in pain. The freshman midfielder had just taken a ball to her stick-hand in the midst of a first half that saw the No. 2 Orange scoreless, seeking a breakthrough during Sunday's 3-0 win over Yale. With a nod of her head, Loncarica shook off the pain and joined her teammates inside the circle for another corner attempt.

By Edward Paik
Ange Bradley stopped her paced walks on the sideline, closed her eyes and rubbed her nose. Something wasn't working for Syracuse's offense in the first half of Sunday's 3-0 victory against Yale. The SU head coach's team seemed stuck in a quagmire, scoreless for the opening 15 minutes, though the shots kept coming.
VB | Orange's 5-game win streak snapped after 1-1 weekend
By David Baer
The Syracuse volleyball team had no shortage of momentum going into this weekend. It had won its last four matches, all of those keyed by first set victories. It was the perfect time for SU to play a pair of games against talented Big East foes. The Orange was able to stretch that momentum for one more game before it ran out.
VB | St. John's international lineup causes problems for Syracuse
By David DeGuzman
Joanne Persico-Smith admits she sometimes finds her St. John's volleyball team "unpredictable." Part of that may be due to the diversity of her team. During most of Sunday's matchup against Syracuse at Manley Field House, five of the Red Storm's seven-woman lineup was made up of international players - each with a different personality and playing style to reflect their home nation.
