Babers presser thread

[SWC75]

Coaches will be "on the ground" recruiting. I guess they won't use helicopters.

 

[Rocco]

I will say, he just CRUSHED that opening presser.

We are incredibly fortunate and a big THANK YOU to Mark Coyle.

 

[phil77]

My guess is Acosta will be kept and he is one of the ones going to get out and start recruiting.

 

[retro44]

Sounds like Acosta is on board if they will be on the road recruiting today.

Sounds like he will be all in at Ft. Drum also

 

[CuseLegacy]

 

[MikeSU02]

So my guess is, total turnover for anyone that is currently at Syracuse, save one or two.

Bringing as many BG guys as he can.

Sounds like Hicks is done.

 

[CuseCactus]

I will say, he just CRUSHED that opening presser.

We are incredibly fortunate and a big THANK YOU to Mark Coyle.

I echo this. THANK YOU MARK COYLE!

Always one...

taking me too literally. Words are words. I love this guy b/c of what he did on the field. I'm 110% behind this decision and what he's saying. I have tremendous faith we got our #1 guy for once.

You know Poliquin was the one in the front row who wouldn't close his eyes when Coach told him to. You just know it.

Yup, I remember Elimu very early saying Babers was his top choice. Good call.

You think Bud has a ipad?

ALL the BG coaches are supposedly coaching in the bowl so that means a few new ones. Could be Acosta and some surprises.

 

[Jasoncuse]

Coaches recruiting today...how quickly can these guys actually become official employees?

 

[All4SU]

THAT is the way to handle assistant coach positions at press conference #1.

 

[CuseLegacy]

So my guess is, total turnover for anyone that is currently at Syracuse, save one or two.

Bringing as many BG guys as he can.

Sounds like Hicks is done.

I wouldn't be so sure on the BG coaches. They have a bowl to coach.

 

[Ozcuse]

You know Poliquin was the one in the front row who wouldn't close his eyes when Coach told him to. You just know it.

I can picture his question to HCDB: "Coach, would you describe yourself as more of a Huzzah or Poobah?"

Don't know what has been said here, I came in late as west coast timing. I head the end of his speech and the Q/A part. OMG! Why did we not have this before??? I love this guy. I love how he talked about the ENTIRE SYRACUSE NATION!! I also like that he addressed that conditioning will be different.. Obviously for his style of play, but I have thought that our conditioning has been as issue all along. He also talked about "early success" using what we have now and adjusting to it, and then building with the incoming players. There was no thought of it taking a couple of years. I also like he may be bringing a good part of his staff, the DC etc. Tis is going to be AWESOME SAUSOME!!!!

Toady is a happy, let's be happy for a day. That's what I was getting at.

 

[jekelish]

Best bet: Bobby Acosta will be retained and leading the recruiting charge today.

Fingers crossed, anyway.

 

[brandokc]

Good point, he would have said, "hey scribe from the salty burg with the quill and parchment."

 

[retro44]

they will be training very differently and soda may very well be off the menu

 

[RF2044]

I will say, he just CRUSHED that opening presser.

We are incredibly fortunate and a big THANK YOU to Mark Coyle.

Babers is so much better than the other candates were for this job, given the current state of our program. Home run hire for Coyle.

 

[elimunelson]

I feel like we just entered the modern college football paradigm.

I wish September was tomorrow. This is going to be a long offseason!!!

How many would you guess end up here?
