Chip West now hired by Wake Forest

[svennyi]

Here we go again...

 

[CbusCuse]

No. Chip has developed our corners wonderfully. So...no you can't have him.

 

[JKinPhilly]

I'm flagging them for targeting...ejection coming

This can be salvaged if Syracuse manages to hire Chris Partridge as Secondary Coach/Passing Game Coordinator or whatever title Monroe had.

 

[sutomcat]

Here we go again...

We can't let little Wake Forest take our football coaches.

We should be poaching their coaches.

If it has come to this, we might as well give up and focus on soccer.

 

[Libero2]

This is interesting we didn’t hear ahead of time about Nebraska or Minnesota or NC State…

maybe a ploy by chip to get us to match a raise he has been offered?

 

[Cusefan69]

I am "targeting " to make one billion dollars before I retire. That doesn't mean it's going to happen. Nothing but rumors at this point. There's always rumors floating around. Maybe Chips agent floated something to get some of that extra money floating around from the other departures.

We apparently have the greatest staff a 7-6 team has ever had...

Kidding aside (I think), its much better to have a staff that is in demand versus the alternative.

Need to land (now three) coaches with good recruiting connections and pedigree in FL, DMV and NJ...

Get Chris Beatty for WR/TE. I know he spurned Cuse once before but he's a good DMV recruiter and the Chargers are hiring a new OC so it's possible he wants to move on.

How come Thamel always reports the departures but never reports the timely arrivals?

 

[PhatOrange]

He gone

It's understandable. Dino is a lame duck, and these guys need assurances to take care of their families. I'm sure that guys long and Dr Bob were fine coming over as they are older and have built their resumes, taken care of their families. Young guys are going to leave as we have seen. I believe it's more about stability for them than money.

WTH Clawson

 

[CuseLegacy]

I have been wondering where West has been as there have been no posts about him being out on the recruiting trail for SU.

 

[Chip]

Whatever. His name sucks.

Have to just laugh this stuff off at this point.

 

[Whitey23]

Thamel must be helping push this across the finish line. Sounds like Woj at the NBA draft,

Ranking draft spoiler terminology used by Woj

This year's NBA draft was supposed to void of ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski tipping picks. He found a way to do it anyway.

Not to panic anyone but I heard Cal Poly is targeting our cafeteria sous chef .

[orangetrain]

Listen, the problem is we don't invest in the program. We can't raise enough money to get keep up with our peers. Coaches see this and they leave. Players see this and they don't come. We can sugar coat this as much as we want, but the dome isn't the draw of the 80's, 90's and early 2000's. The city of Syracuse doesn't have the major manufacturers and our local leaders can't get out of their way and move forward and make progress.
As others have said our reality is losing record with a possible winning season every few years. It can be changed, but people need to look in their wallets and contribute.

 

[Grbac]

Maybe now we know why Dino hasn’t made any hires yet. Waiting for his staff to stop getting poached.

So,

Who do you point the finger at when you can’t retain proven commodities vs Peers?

Clearly you blame Buzz Shaw from some quote from 25 years ago!!! That's the way to do it

It's so true, you'd think we were 14-0 with a Rock of Gibralter defense and Air Coryell offense the way our guys are in demand

Anyone here ever play the card game Hearts? Feels like we are shooting the moon this offseason.
