After they fired Coach P , they hired some Defensive coordinator who won a couple of super bowls but had never run a high level college football program, result equals failure
then they turned to an alumni and his dream job but once again never had run a major college football program and eventually he soured on maybe the biggest part of his job which as recruiting so ended up as a failure
Then instead of doing a national search they hired a life long coordinator with no head coaching experience who talked a big game but had never run a college program so the inevtible came he failed.

Then they did the right thing and id a search and at least hired a head coach though not at the highest level and had never won with his own recruits. Also took him several years to make changes on the staff so they could stop giving up like 70 points a game. eventually he failed and was just playing out the string. he had a much better resume than any of the previous coaches but still not complete.

we have a possible candidate that checks more boxes than anyone so far in the last 20 years, is still fairly young, and has worked in the area including with the program. If this guy is really a candidate then its almost impossible for me to believe they would pick another head coach with so many blank spaces in his resume.
At some point money talks. I doubt ADJW has a completely blank check and Mullen may be moving the goalpost from his original ask for all we know. Not to be one of those condescending posters who love to lecture about how negotiating is done but everyone has a number they won’t cross on either side.


Not that I know anything but my best guess Is Cuse gave Mullen a best and final offer and Mullen is mulling it over. While he is mulling it over… Cuse is smartly interviewing Chesney in case Mullen says no to best and final. One way or another we will find out next week or we will see new names in the rumor mill from Thamel.
 
If it isn't Mullen it better be because he turned us down and not the other way around.
It's possible that his family didn't want to live in Syracuse. So he turned down the offer
 
Can’t wait to revisit this. I’m with the chesney family as we speak. Bob’s son Bo has a 44 jersey on. Continue to think Mullen is the guy. Option 1 directly to Option 2.
Your buddy’s brother runs an enterprise company in Syracuse and that got you close enough to Chesney to be around his family during all this? (Just going off your first ever post.)
 
Chesney does nothing for this program I’m sorry but whoever wants that is nuts and if JW goes in that direction perhaps he should of kept Dino
Chesney would just be an extension of below average recruiting, zero excitement, Un-tested P4 coaching. It would feel like spinning the wheels. Search for a coach that'll be an improvement, don't swing for fantasy diamonds in the rough.
