Greg Paulus Named Starting QB at Syracuse
Posted by nvr1983 on August 18th, 2009Most Syracuse fans seemed to think it was a no-brainer, but it wasn’t official until Syracuse football coach Doug Marrone made the announcement last night that Greg Paulus, everybody’s favorite whipping boy at Duke, will begin the season as the Orange starting QB. Given the fact that he hasn’t played competitive organized football in 4 years the announcement may be surprising to some, but when you remember that Paulus was the Gatorade National Football Player of the Year and that today’s Syracuse program is not the program it was when Donovan McNabb was under center it isn’t that shocking. We wish Paulus the best in his 2nd college career and want to remind him that flopping doesn’t work in football.
This is a big story. Very impressive for a guy who hasn’t played football in 4 years. And hes showing up his brother who had a terrible couple games with UNC at QB last year.
