Message: [QUOTE="UBSU, post: 4859899, member: 2966"] I am somewhat perplexed about the infatuation with Bob Chesney and being the "leading candidate". From what I have read, he has worked his way up as a quality coach and familiar with the NE. Has coached at private academic schools - a very good plus for Syracuse. Doubts: coaching in very small conferences and no Power 5 (4) experience - even as a paid staff assistant. Should this be his first chance as a head coach at Syracuse? I am concerned that he would be way over his head competing with the likes of Clemson, FSU, Carolina etc. That's a lot different than Lehigh, Lafayette and Bucknell. Seems like a tall task with no experience. Too much, too soon. Equally important, he will be dealing with the NIL now. Totally different experience than Holy Cross. Wouldn't be my choice as a top candidate. Power 5 experience with everything else Wildhack has on his list should be the top priority. [/QUOTE]
