My name's Dave. I use the same username for everything Cuse related. Originally from Rochester NY. My great uncle played football at Cuse back in the day with Jim Nance, Floyd Little, Ernie Davis, etc. My family is diehard Cuse fans. Mom went to law school there during the McNabb years. Moved to VA when I was 12 and grew up in Virginia Beach. I currently live in Arlington VA, but will be moving to Alexandria in June. I work as an IT consultant on federal government projects. I make it a point to attend at least 1 home and 1 road football game a year. Some years I've been lucky to do multiple road games living in ACC country. Will be attending the FSU and ND games and possibly Pittsburgh this upcoming season. I’m also from VB. Went to Bishop Sullivan aka Catholic High and my parents still live in Kempsville. I love it down there, such a great town.

Hello all. I’m Craig. Die hard cuse fan forever but never attended or have any family that went. Grew up an hour south of cuse around Binghamton. Mostly football and basketball fan but follow lacrosse as well. Been traveling for the last few years so these boards are how I get all my cuse info. Live in San Antonio, TX now and try to make one cuse game a year. Look forward to all the good chats.

Hello! I fall under the both catagory. I grew up in Syracuse on the Northeast side of town. Went to Henninger HS and was fortunate enough to attend SU from the fall of 89 until graduating in ‘94. I did more partying than studying, hence the 5th year. I have loved Syracuse University sports my entire life. My earliest memory of Cuse hoops was listening to a Cuse- Penn State basketball ball game on the radio as we decorated our Christmas tree at a young age as well as the Cuse-Purdue game that was nationally televised and a big deal for the times. I never went to a game a Manley, but I remember how upset I was when I read in the paper the next day that Manley Field House was officially closed. My first hoops game seen in person wasa birthday present from my parents and at the time was the largest on campus crowd to ever watch a College basketball game. Cuse-Georgetown, and I remember Michael Jackson killing “us”.
My first Cuse football memories are my parents being so frustrated that Bill Hurley couldn’t stay healthy, a Cuse-TOSU game that I believe was in Archibold Stadium with my late grandpa. I remember Cuse playing well, but succumbing to the Buckeyes. My parents had season tickets to the last season at Archibold and I remember my late father saying to my mom, “I will go into the office, why don’t you take the boy to the game”. So I was fortunate enough to see the last game ever there. I I will never forget the chainsaws after the game teasing thru the seats and tearing down the goalposts. For the longest time I had a piece of green painted bleachers in my house from that date. I will never forget the first time I ever saw a football game in the Dome, I thought it was the greatest spectacle I had ever seen. I have tried to install to love for Cuse Sports into my wife and daughter and the humor me from time to time, going tonaway football games as well as NCAA games with me. I moved to the St Louis area about 5 years ago for work and I fly my Cuse flag proudly. I really hope this board takes off because the others can get very clicks and catty from time to time. Nice to meet you all and LGO!

I'll keep it short and sweet. Name is skyler and been a cuse fan since the day I was born. Mainly basketball and football but I love everything cuse! Live in fulton, ny which is about 20 min from cuse. Go to as many games as my busy schedule allows but I dont miss any on the television. Married and have a almost 3 year old daughter with another baby girl on the way and we are all cuse fans! Love interacting on these forums and really enjoy the recruiting side of things. (the last few years have been pretty entertaining)

My name is Aaron and I live in Seattle. I did not attend Syracuse or go to the school. My uncle went there and my cousin is attending now. My great uncle was a professor there for many decades and when I was a kid he would go and get the posters signed and send them to me. He would also send me shirts and other stuff. He was the type of guy who was a scientist and knew very little about sports but I think he attending every home football and basketball game for 30 years. He was very proud to be a part of university and loved supporting it. I think I just took the team on as my team when I was young. I want to say 7 or 8. Looking forward to talking Syracuse basketball with everyone.

Real name Dean but got nickname of Deano so use that a lot. Originally from near the Cooperstown, NY area and have migrated south about 20 years ago living near Montgomery, Al . Became a SU B-ball back in 1981 as we took a high school basketball bus trip to the Dome to catch a game. So many great moments in those years that stick out and more to come. Winning National Championship was a double win for me as that night my first child (daughter) was born about 20 minutes after the win. As a parent/fan (married with two daughters) you can't ask much more than that. Hopefully one of these days we will win another championship or two. Look forward to the hoops chatter on the board. Go Cuse!

Hey everyone. Grew up in Oswego in the 80s. Vividly remember watching the 87 BBall Championship as a pre-pubescent. My godparents live close to Manley still. College was in NYC and on the west coast at USC. I would faithfully get up early to watch McNabb and those noon ET kickoffs while at USC. I paid neighbors and friends PPV who had cable to watch games that would be on GamePlan because of regional coverage. Lived in Miami in early 2000s when I first discovered the board hence my username. I live in Cleveland now, travel a lot for work, and usually have to DVR many games. I try to see the team on the road as much as I can. Went to Dayton, been to Pitt a few times, Cincinnati, Louisville, MSG/ old BET a bunch, Akron football, etc. Cheers.
