FMA Special Feature: Interview with a Booster
After this year's disappointing start, firemajorapplewhite.com sat down with a prominent Syracuse booster to get the inside scoop:
A: Perry Patterson is to blame. Granted, he hasn't been given the most talented receivers to work with (and Rice Moss and Lavar Lobdell being injured doesn't help)...but he's awful.
FMA: Admit it, does part of you wish you had Coach P to blame for this year's effort rather than the sad fact that Syracuse has a dying tradition in a dying conference?
A: I still do blame P. This team is the product of years of P's hideous recruiting.
FMA: Syracuse vs. Rutgers -- is this the worst game of the year or what?
A: I think Syracuse-Buffalo was technically the worst game of the year. Rutgers actually isn't THAT bad. Syracuse will probably be getting points.
FMA: If you could suit up anyone on the Syracuse sideline and have them play QB, who would it be?
A: Major Applewhite
