You should understand this isn't on John. It was a nightmare getting Jim to step down.  From the coup he pulled with Hop till the incredible mess he created after his last season Jim was all about Jim. He was given way too much power. JW was in an incredibly difficult situation which you and everyone else on this board who has been around for as long as we have knows. 
There was only one choice for the transition and it was Red. 
He took over a team that was a hot mess and got 20 wins out of them. 
This year has been horrible.  Red has been clueless. He has been God awful.  
But it's year two. Melos kid is coming. Melo is behind the program.  Syracuse doesn't fire coaches after only two seasons. 
Again, you know this. Did you or anyone who has followed Syracuse Athletics for years actually expect Syracuse to fire Red? Seriously.  If so you don't have a clue as to the dynamics involved. 
JW has done a great job and if Red craps the bed next year he will hire a great new coach. But get off the fire JW train as you should know what's actually going on and how this has all unfolded. It sucks for sure but it is taking the path it has to take.
