Bob Chesney

Here is an article I found with Coach Chesney after a game about a year ago.

He is glib. Pretty engaging and honest. I think he has a personality that would work at Syracuse.

Waaaaaay too happy.

I’m pretty confident this is our guy, I don’t think it’s a coincidence a couple HC kids hit the portal today and since our job is the only one already open that’s an obvious move for him, I’m putting 2 and 2 together. He was my number 2 behind Dan Mullen but it wasn’t by much at all. Checks all the boxes. Hopefully he lands a couple ace recruiters and we get ready to pound the portal on the 4th. Really hope he can bring in his QB.

he seems way to normal to be football coach. I mean that in a good way I think. Also way to honest in his answers

We need an asset and a coach willing to sell our program. Hard nosed blue collar guy. Would do well in Syracuse.

I thought the portal thing was coincidence but forgot no grad year in Patriot League. I still think he's the guy.

Yeah he seems like a personality that would work well here. would be well liked until he takes a time out that people don’t agree with

Chesney seems to have an "it" factor. Modest, engaging, articulate. His teams win consistently. Obviously, it's very big jump from the Patriot league to the ACC. But this guy could be a home run if what he has consistently done to date translates at this level.

Would be a huge risk but outside the box and if it works would be a phenomenal hire. He probably has the high ceiling/low floor margin won of the bunch

Bob Chesney seems like the anti-Dino.

He certainly has enthusiasm. He reminds me of FSU’s coach.

Give him the money to hire a great staff and we may have something

He’s the clear #2 behind Dan Mullen. Think we’d all be happy with this.

Did you happen to ask why no one has come calling if he's so smart/well-respected (or if they have, why he stayed at HC) in the last few years? He's been at HC since 2018, and a head coach since 2010.

Absolutely no snark here. Honestly curious.

His personality is so likeable that they weren’t certain a few years ago if he was as good of a football mind as he came off bc he’s quite likeable and normal. So I think they just were curious if the team and players developed

So many coaches are really like used car salesman. It’s interesting.

Oh my, Christmas has come early if true (for either)

If I could like this twice I would

Love the energy Cheney brings. He will connect well with the fanbase…..not that that matters a ton but it certainly helps. And I think the locker room will love this guy.

Hopefully he brings his QB with him.

I love this post

If it's Chesney, you hire Addazio as OL coach and if you don't retain Beck, you gauge Joe Moorhead as OC.

This is another thing some people may not think of. You go hire Chesney. You don’t have to give him massive amounts of money. You may have to pay a P5 Cordinator or other Head Coach big money to entice them to come here. But you can use that extra money you save in this hire to build a great staff around him and help him transition to D1.

ADJW kind of alluded to that today which was a sign he was leaning in this direction. And does Chesney have kids? He talked about what a good area it is to raise a family.
