It's a nice sentiment, but not something that Syracuse can really own any more. A decade between #1s outweighs the greats of the waaaaay past, naming of the Mackey Award, etc.
 
Plus, it doesn't seem to fit with Marrone's modus operandi. He seems to be about team and personal development. His sell seems to be "be a leader of 84 others to bring this storied program BACK to big-time BCS bowls we've been in. Help us prepare to disrupt the ACC and win championships. And I will give you my personal guarantee I will prepare you for life be it in the NFL where I once was or for a great broadcast or engineering career."
 
Kids of top-flight talent are already legends in their own mind, in many, many cases. Right now, we need the exceptional talent that thinks different and maybe nab Myron Rolle-types (Fla State star that won a Rhodes Scholar.) We get a few of those, then we might actually start to win and THEN attracts the big timers more realistically.
