It turns out Syracuse's new football coach is amazing at cornhole
Meet Dino Babers. He's the new coach of Syracuse football, and he is (probably) better than you at cornhole.
Babers came over to the Orange this offseason following two years at Bowling Green, and he apparently brought with him some pretty impressive skills at tailgate games. While outside ESPN's SportsCenter studios this week, Babers showed off stunning accuracy while tossing the bags. He managed to get on the board with all four throws, and he drained the final three in a row.

Well then...that's nothing to scoff at.
Of course, the stakes here were pretty low. Babers wasn't playing against anyone, he seemed to be standing a little closer than he should have been, and he was probably sober. You can't truly provide a fair assessment of someone's lawn game prowess unless there's actually pressure and alcohol involved.
If this was the "Draft Combine" of tailgate season, though, I think it's fair to project Babers as a first-round pick.
