Post 119 announced that the Syracuse Orange, possibly the worst BCS team in NCAA football in 2008, had signed former high school superstar and Duke University basketball star Greg Paulus, a native of Central New York, had committed to play with the Orange as QB.
He was listed as third on the depth chart last week which, of course, was ridiculous.
Tonight Conor Orr in The Daily Orange reports that "After one week of summer camp, Syracuse head coach Doug Marrone has named Duke transfer student Greg Paulus as the team's starting quarterback...Paulus had been competing for the job against redshirt freshman Ryan Nassib - who was named the starting quarterback by Marrone in the Spring...[Syracuse's] first game [is] against Minnesota at the Carrier Dome on September 5."
Interesting, very interesting.

119...Paulus commits
As predicted in post 112, Greg Paulus, who ran the point at Duke for three years and came off the bench for the Blue Devils as a senior is, the Daily Orange reports online, going to play quarterback for his hometown Syracuse University Orange.
A rare 5th year varsity athlete, Mr. Paulus hasn't played footie since high school but was in the mix in this year's NFL draft. He was the number one rated QB in the country when he came out of Christian Brother's Academy but chose to follow his heart and the rock to Duke University.
SU, which was pretty much the worst BCS team in college football last year, has a new coach, a homeboy, Doug Marrone and now a high profile transfer who is also a homeboy.
I am not predicting a bowl but 5 wins would be nice.

112...Greg Paulus, QB
After playing four years, the first three as a starter, as point for the Duke Blue Devils, Greg Paulus is on the move to, according to today's The Sporting News, Syracuse to run the show on the football field for his hometown Orange.
Best I can figure out the NCAA rules, although one is allowed 4 years of eligibility you get a fifth one if you play a second sport for that year and transfer out.
Whatever.
Deally deal is Mr. Paulus was a two sport star in high school in Central New York and feels that he has a shot at the NFL as a quarterback. So does the NFL apparently, with the Green Bay Packers being especially keen.
Kinda cool, eh?
Play a little QB, pick up a Master's and go to the NFL.
