Thanksgiving marks the end of high school football all around New York State for most schools, but there were still a select few that kept on playing through those turkey hangovers.
The New York State High School Football Championships took place at the Dome over the weekend and you can bet the SU football program kept a keen eye on the proceedings.
On Saturday, Southwestern beat Bronxville (for you high school football buffs), but in the loss one player found himself in the middle of a recruiting battle.
His name is John Shkreli (pictured middle), and he’s a 6’2″ senior linebacker from Bronxville High School.
Bronxville has been a successful team over the last couple seasons, albeit in one of New York’s smaller school divisions. But snagging a recruit from a winning program is what Syracuse needs.
In the state title game, Shkreli’s team lost 40-14 and yet the kid still stood out. How about being honored when your defense allows 40 points? He picked up eight tackles en route to being named the games defensive MVP. Incredible.
A couple weeks ago he picked up 12 tackles as the defense’s middle linebacker.
The eyes he’s got on him according to his head coach Jeff Napolitano? Syracuse, Rutgers, Notre Dame and Purdue.
Greg Schiano? Meet Doug Marrone. And for that matter, maybe Big East rival Brian Kelly too if he ends up in South Bend.
Bronxville is in Westchester County, just north of New York City, and although the area is known much more for its basketball, it’s produced some recent football studs as well.
Doug Hogue, arguably the best healthy linebacker on the SU roster is from Roosevelt High in Yonkers.
Ray Rice came from the eponymous New Rochelle High School.
And back in the day, Syracuse great and NFL Hall of Famer Art Monk graduated from my alma mater, White Plains High School.
You can make a sure bet that somebody from the SU football staff got left behind on the UConn trip and was sitting in the stands at the Dome potentially watching the next generation shine.
Keep an eye on John Shkreli.

I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Cheers!

I conceive this site has got some rattling wonderful information for everyone. “Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.” by Eric Sevareid.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
Phenocal makes strong claims for its proprietary blend of fat burning ingredients, suggesting it can “maximise your fat burning results”. We take a look to see if this fat burner that contains no less than 24 ingredients can really give you quicker and greater fat loss!
Enjoyed every bit of your article post. Keep writing.
F*ckin’ remarkable things here. I am very glad to peer your article. Thanks so much and i’m looking ahead to touch you. Will you please drop me a e-mail?
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being stolen? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
Hey! I realize this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask. Does building a well-established website such as yours require a large amount of work? I’m brand new to operating a blog but I do write in my diary everyday. I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my own experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any recommendations or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Appreciate it!
I really like your writing style, wonderful info, appreciate it for putting up :D. “He wrapped himself in quotations- as a beggar would enfold himself in the purple of Emperors.” by Rudyard Kipling.
Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
This design is incredible! You certainly know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?
