There's no reason to beat around the bush. Doing so only conceives that the inevitable is not a reasonable possibility.Brendan Carney is the greatest college football player in the country.
Again.
Last season, Carney's campaign for glory was sabotaged by a Syracuse offense that failed to be utterly abysmal. Granted, Perry's Posse was pretty terrible, but had they really mailed it in last season, there's no question that Carney would be entering this season on a quest to secure his second Heisman Trophy.
Nobody rockets the ball off his toe quite like Carney. The best way to describe Carney's punting prowess is that his punts are like Manute Bol on heroin - long and high. And awesome. Really awesome.
Who needs 44 when you've got 47?
Given the stable of talent Coach Robinson will be forced to utilize this season, Carney should be poised for another monstrous season punting the pigskin. As such, Syracuse :: 44 :: Orange will be once again driving the roomy, but comfortable, Carney for Heisman bandwagon. Feel free to jump aboard.
Next stop - Yale Club!
