Bob Chesney

[mustacheovich]

It's hard to win in the SEC
It's less challenging to win in the Patriot League.
He hasn't gone/been anywhere.
Nobody cares about Buffalo wins or near wins.
Stop acting like he's Andy Reid.
I'll get behind him, but hope for Wildhack's sake he considered all the options in this supposed national search.

If reading Chesney's career accolades made you think of Andy Reid then that's even more reason to hire him!

Chesney v Candle
Both good coaches
Candle at a higher level as may be some coaches he brings with him
Candle only has one player from east of Ohio.
Chesney a positive high energy guy. Candle I don't know one way or the other

Weird glitch, I didn’t post that.

Solid, subtle Sam Elliott reference.

Great out of the gate but not much for stamina

Many high level football playing Catholic schools. That's a good thing.

Fair but they are mostly zero star guys according to 247.

Can he get the 4 star guys? Thats the leap of which I speak.

No worries.

Let’s go with Chesney. He’s an excellent communicator, not old, he will be in P4 soon. Just get it done at this point. I’m less worried about recruiting with him to be honest and more worried if he is that sort of Dino mold of “players coach”.

I am still pissed off at what appears to be a last minute fall out with Mullen, likely due to money, but this is what happens during coaching searches and I do not know what actually happened. It’s time to move on, pound the portal, and get ready for the most important O and D hires in basically ever.

Win Games. There is risk, but that risk can go well.

someone at the P5 is gonna give him a shot at some point.. Its not like we are a top 40 job right now to be so picky

With Chesney are we looking going back to the ground and pound game with a Tampa 2 defense?

Crosssports board seems to think it’s a wrap. They (rightfully, imo) are mocking many Cuse fans for saying chesney isn’t qualified. Also, orangeunited guy following

 

[upperdeck]

who knows, Mullin may have just been a guy they asked opinions about other coaches with.

The only way we are getting 4-star guys is if we get in early and beat out the top 25 programs. His relationships with powerhouse HS programs are a good start. Being a younger, high-energy guy helps as well.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

After all I have read and the research I have done I believe Bob is going to be the guy.

 

[TheHaze315]

Got sent a post from the HC forum apparently someone said we might try to cancel the HC game out of fear we’d lose to them Give me Chesney so I can create an account there please.

In all fairness, not many HC at Cuse in recent years have got a lot of 4 star guys. What BChes has been able to do is build and win consistently with challenging variables with which to work. I don’t know if he can be successful here, but that’s an impressive resume to build a sustainable program…at least on paper.

I would like someone who brings in his own S&C staff

Jeff Oliver Holy Cross

 

[Orangefan1]

How exciting the possibility of a Holy Cross SU merger!

There’s our plug and play LT for next year. Not a stretch since Enrique never had a PFF score over 49.5 this year.

Especially if Chesney is our guy and we get Sluka from the portal.

Needs way more jokes, people.

This guy was also following Mullen FWIW.

 

[phil77]

From what I can tell from some videos it seems with Chesney we would be going back to old school brand of football. Run first and Cover 2 on defense.

 

[Orangefan1]

I’m ready Syracuse!
