Did Syracuse coach Doug Marrone take a shot at new UMass LB Mike Mele in this story? JUCO LB Derek Hines is listed as the starting WLB for the Orange ------ despite the fact that he has yet to set foot on the Syracuse campus. Donnie Web of the Post-Standard asked Marrone if that was unsettling. Marrone replied ""Not as unsettling as if you're playing with someone you know can't win," said Marrone.".

Another mention of Mele and Sheehan in this article.
