Byrnes HS, Spartanburg, SC

Say what?

 

[MSOrange]

That's a bit shocking to lose a guy to a high school job. Not sure what to think about that.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Could be a family thing - he's got three kids and has worked in D1 for 22 years.

It's South Carolina. How many northern high schools have a S&C coach? I'm sure they have a sports club to offer him a truckload of money.

Good point. It's football in the south.

 

[TexanMark]

We beat Clemson too...he'll have some cred.

Plus, he's the guy there. Gets to run his own show.

Heck could just be a 9-3 job 5 days a week...holidays and weekends off. (and more pay)...lol

That's the only thing that makes sense. Maybe his wife had an opportunity, or his son wants to play football in the south?

Players spend more time with SnC coaches than positional. Hes a favorite. That sucks, but all the best to him and his family.

Quick google search. Byrnes has 2,500 students easily making it a NY AA school. (Cicero North Syracuse has 2,300 and Shen has 2,000).

Football Stadium capacity is 6,500 and 12,000 fans have been in attendance. They have a $320,000 videoboard with a 10x14-foot screen. They've hosted televised ESPN games lol.

This sounds like a nice end of career gig.

If you go to a game there, do you get to choose who sits on your lap, or is it whomever gets there first?!

LOL...I'm sure they meant standing room only. From the article "More than 12,000 fans have been shoe-horned into the facility"

Still waiting for someone to post how this is a big loss, tough to replace etc

 

[orangeinohio]

His arms are way too puny for Syracuse.

He's up at 8 AM on Sundays pushing a weighted sled up and down the street in front of the house.

I'm not gonna tell him about his arms.

Ask the players. They love the guy.

His kilt will be missed.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

His kilt will be missed.

That was Chirco. He hasn't been here in a year.

Unless Caton was promoted to kilt duties in 2020. Hard to tell since none of us went to games.

Why is a Syracuse football assistant wearing a kilt?

Why does a Syracuse football assistant strength coach wear a kilt on gameday?

They all look alike, don't they?

Dudes in skirts? Yeah.

 

[orangefog]

Dudes in skirts? Yeah.

Maybe try looking at their faces.
