I’m ok with that question, given where Syracuse football has been for two decades.  Very few guys coming in can talk credibly about believing Syracuse can be good in football - most view this as a terrible job which is at best a stepping stone.  Getting Brown to talk about his memories of the Wisconsin - Syracuse game gives him an opportunity to create a credibility with casual fans.

I get that everyone here wants to know what offense he’ll run, what he looks for in a QB, etc - but that stuff is so far off the radar for 95% of people in Syracuse.  Giving Brown a chance to expand on his Syracuse football memories is a chance to create enough of a link to the past that maybe some of those not-even-casual fans decide to buy some tickets next year to check the new guy out.

Some of the other questions were terrible though.

EDIT - my brother, who is at best a casual fan, checked out the highlights of Brown’s PC (only because I was telling him about it, otherwise he wouldn’t care).  The comment about being at the Wisconsin - Syracuse game captured his attention and was the only thing my brother commented to me on - “At least we got a guy who remembers when we didn’t suck”.
