Eric White

[djorange1989]

Seems kind of unnecessary to be attacking a dude who, for the last few years, has been doing nothing but pimping the hell out of Syracuse University football and helping us bring kids into the program.

"Hey, you! The kid who's been trying to make this program I root for get better! Screw you!"

Unnecessary and tacky

There will be a replacement.

Exactly

Eric was loyal to Shafer ... Complete overhaul ... Doesn't mean he is a bad guy or not needed

Guys like him are a dime a dozen, anyone on this board can do that role, and would probably do so for less than what he was earning

They will address support staff during the quiet period and after 1/1/16

 

[Full_Rebar]

Not sure about less than what he was learning. Those positions aren't making a ton, which is why Eric was probably leaving sooner than later anyway. Next step is DFO or Player Relations/Personnel type jobs.

Twitter is the equivalent of using an excel spreadsheet these days. Lewis is tweeting in between travel, etc, takes 15 seconds no need to replace a guy like white if new staff is savy enough to tweet once in awhile something relevant, nobody is that busy. I would rather read Lewis tweets than some cheerleader sitting in a dungeon glued to his IPAD all day. People act as if white was a football guy, he was a twitter guy, that's it

That's not even remotely close to what he did. He'll be replaced.

I'm bummed to see this. I think White helped modernize our program in some respects, and the players really liked him.

Who cares... Good riddance. Dude was a chearleader twitter minion. BFD. This staff is dialed in. I absolutely love updates from coach Lewis.

I like u more and more with babers hire hopefully we win some ball games

 

[Orijinal]

Geesh ...

Loved the work he did for us. He was great, but no one is irreplaceable.

That's not even remotely close to what he did. He'll be replaced.

Social media and player buddy is about all he did. That makes up about 25% of what the job should be doing. Would not have surprised me if he was gone under the old staff too. Some coaches didn't feel they were getting the support they needed out of that office.

The new "Recruiting Coordinator" will be one of the coaches...either Sowders or Beattie probably.
And odds are the new DFO will be Wittke from BGSU. Why leave anyone behind?

 

[orangenauburn]

As with recruiting, let's wait until the staff and support staff are in place with defined roles before we jump off a ledge

 

[CanadianSU]

It isn't that big of a loss...

Wittke has been here since day 1 when Babers was introduced.

Both of them..Roy and Brad?

Brad, the kid who was BG DFO. Don't know if Dad is coming.
