Columnist Bud Poliquin of The Post-Standard is in Phoenix along with photographer Frank Ordoņez. Today, they bring you the story of former Syracuse wide receiver David Tyree, the special teams star of the New York Giants.
Tyree talks about emerging from his "destructive" days at Syracuse to playing in the Super Bowl.
Tyree on the state of the SU football program:
"I wouldn't say it affects me terribly. I watch from afar, but I'm not really a college-football buff. But I am praying for that day when we get back into New Jersey (his home state) and start getting some of those guys again. Then we can be on the road to going bowling every year. Until we do . . . Rutgers is a top-flight football team right now. It looks like we've switched places since I was in school."
