    Pondering a Kadary Richmond reunion in Syracuse and analyzing SU's backup QB's with Charley Loeb

    Pondering a Kadary Richmond reunion in Syracuse and analyzing SU's backup QB's with Charley Loeb

    On the latest episode of Syracuse Sports, Brent Axe opens by pondering a potential return to Syracuse basketball for former guard Kadary Richmond, who is in the transfer portal. What are the advantages and disadvantages of bringing Richmond back and could SU pull it off? Brent also opines on how Syracuse women's lacrosse just can't past a nemesis that has now beaten the Orange six straight times. 
    Brent is then joined by former Syracuse quarterback Charley Loeb and syracuse.com's Emily Leiker to discuss SU football's backup quarterback situation. Loeb trains both Carlos Del Rio-Wilson and incoming freshman Jakhari Williams in his role with Quarterback Country. Loeb tells Brent and Emily about the development of both quarterbacks and who is ready to step up if SU starter Kyle McCord goes down. 
    Loeb also talks about the buzz surrounding the program among SU football alums on the arrival of new Orange coach Fran Brown and tells a funny story about a text he got from the new SU boss.

Go Orange!

As a born and raised Syracusan and off and on season football ticket holder now living near Philly, Brent’s Syracuse sports knowledge and ability to be concise helps me follow my home team even better. Awesome podcast!

John🤘 ,

Great 👍

Brent is one of the best (if not the best) Syracuse sports journalist. These past few years he has done a great job at really capturing the attitudes of our disillusioned fanbase. He bleeds Orange. Go Cuse.

Rocco II ,

Superb podcast for the Syracuse sports nut!!!

You have to be crazy to love Syracuse with how much pain we have been through in the past decade but if you want quality, unbiased, and intelligent reporting this is the place. Brent tells it like it is and Emily is fantastic with her in depth analysis. Way to go team!!!
