Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee and Orange All-American Floyd Little will host an autograph session in the backcourt of the Carrier Dome on Saturday, February 27 from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm prior to Syracuse's men's basketball game against Villanova. Orange basketball fans attending the game will have the opportunity to purchase Steiner Collectibles items, including footballs and photographs, for Little to autograph. Fans can bring personal items that are permissible to bring in the Dome, such as a photograph or game program. Autographs are $35 and personal inscriptions are $45. A portion of the proceeds from the autograph session will be donated to the 'Cuse Cares Telethon, benefitting the American Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti.
All fans are invited to visit the Steiner Collectibles venue in the backcourt prior to the game and at halftime to register to win a Legend of 44 SU helmet autographed by Jim Brown that will be signed by Little at the Dome.
At 8:00 p.m., ESPN's College GameDay will broadcast live from the court in the Carrier Dome. Show host Rece Davis and analysts Digger Phelps, Jay Bilas, Hubert Davis and Bob Knight will be on the air until tipoff of the game at 9:00 p.m.
The first ESPN College GameDay telecast of the day will begin at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday in the Dome, setting the stage for the sold-out game against Villanova. Syracuse University men's basketball fans are invited to participate in the live telecast.
