You can’t convince me that Fran needs sleep

Anyone know the details as to how these coaches travel? Do they go in private jets?

Yes. Time is money

 

[mark79]

Yes. Time is money

So they probably take a limo to Hancock right to a private hanger. That’s the way to fly!!

 

[texascpa]

How? How is he seemingly everywhere?

 

[Trueblue25]

Private jet

Teleporter, clearly.

And I'll just leave this here:

Any kid that even comes up with an idea like that, regardless if he has the financial resources to carry it out is a good kid. Most HS kids don’t think like this. With NIL I am sure he could make an impact. I love hearing positive things like this about our “future” players.

 

[RyanCuse44]

Still glad to see Fran not just make the trips for the guys on the fence. But giving love and attention to the kids showing the most love to Syracuse. Can't be higher on the job the staff has done so far.

ADJW right now

 

[IthacaBarrel]

ADJW right now

Until he gets a call from accounts payable with the bill for the private flights.

I would love a new Dave Teal column to drop saying that we should be happy with 6-6 and we can't really compete for high end talent so we shouldn't bother trying.

 

[Bulldog04]

The use of a private jet and just hard work is allowing Fran to be everywhere. There’s a story I read about Calipari visiting 5 recruits in the same day bc they used a particular high speed jet to get him all over the place. Clearly Fran is following this approach and working like we haven’t seen before. When you can literally walk onto the plane and take off within minutes, it’s a lifesaver all while getting to remote places and airports that usually would take extra time to get via the slow route

 

[gmoney44]

Amazing to think people were afraid we would get worse bc Dino could go .500 every year… but we deserve this as fans. It’s been a long time and this has been so fun

I feel like a teenager again. That was the last time we were in the conversation for studs like this. Unfortunately I looked in the mirror and realize I in fact am not a young buck anymore.

 

[elimunelson]

who is the booster sugar daddy paying for all of this? We have a sense?

The recycle guy apparently wasn't our white whale. He was just the billionaire ed hardy guy who made zero impact with the right coach

Personally I’ve never been in one. But my son has. He is friends with a pilot whose job is only to be available for an oil heiress if she wants to go somewhere. Plane was free so he took my son down to North Carolina for bbq and back the same day. It’s a different world.

It ruins all sense of travel…

Whoever is financing all of this gets a big thank you, this is the most fun Syracuse football has been in decades and we’re just getting started

She hot?

Wonder where the we just can't recruit better because we're in Syracuse poor us crowd is.
Been ridiculed mercilessly for years trying to say our talent needs an upgrade, our emphasis should be NE corridor, and we can do it with the right coach and enthusiasm from the fanbase to recognize change was needed and no 'just don't trust the coach' and no 'not every recruit was great' and 'stars mean nothing' 'we can rely on diamonds in the rough'...When's that crowd making an amends thread?

 

[CuseBlood44]

If he’s going to Georgia Syracuse to Atlanta is a daily nonstop flight, there’s a chance these aren’t all private

 

[PhatOrange]

Until he gets a call from accounts payable with the bill for the private flights.

I was wondering if someone is donating it's use. Weitsman has one. But they're not that much to rent. Looks like we've just actually entered the 21st century with recruiting.

Cost to rent depends on the size. For a light jet, I just plugged in a 1 day round trip rental (to Lafayette, LA) at two carriers and the cost was $34,000 at one and $21,000 - $27,800 at the other. Chump change.

True, but time isn't on his side right now. Fran needs to to and fro quickly.

It costs extra to land safely.

That’s more of a Spirit thing.

You get discounts when you have netjets / wheels up on longer term arrangements.

The jet flagged in the Kyle McCord thread is owned by what appears to be a wealthy individual out of Skaneateles and could just be a donor who's letting the school use it. I have a friend who's a pilot for a wealthy business man in Western NY. He works just a few days a month, if that. Just has to be available to fly when he wants him to. Otherwise they do test flights occasionally but he's usually home. There are many unused jets out there. Even if the school just pays for the fuel, it's a huge savings.
