How Did SU Go 1-10 With This Much Pro Talent?
To say Syracuse football‚Äôs 2020 season was a disappointment would be an understatement. It was an 11-week odyssey in futility and frustration. SU‚Äôs 1-10 record was its worst since the 2005 Greg Robinson debacle and just the second one-win season since 1948. However, that didn‚Äôt stop the Orange from producing some pro prospects. Three members…
