Fran Brown Coaching Staff

[OrangeXtreme]

I’m not sure how ANYONE could say him buying a nice home is him chasing the money?

Most of the coaches when they come to Cuse only rent a home.

The fact that he BOUGHT a million plus home, during a time when interest rates are rather high, shows he is investing in being in this community.

Anyone who tells you otherwise, is absolutely looking to stir the pot and flame the embers of negativity around the program

Honestly, he's not too far from where Dino used to live.

Jamesville, the cradle of coaches.

 

[#FRANchise]

Heard that Fran bought a $3M mansion in Jamesville. I was half expecting him to fix up one of those abandoned homes in the city and move in to get the true urban experience. Unfortunately sounds like the money is talking which doesn't bode well when the SEC or B10 comes calling.

This is a weird take, seeing as Fran has been more present in the community (at least publicly), than I can ever remember Dino being in his 8 years in Syracuse.

 

[Ozone!]

Janesville-Dewitt Schools are highly rated​

And he wants a good education for his children, nothing wrong with that IMO!

Any coach pretty much here at Syracuse.

Yup. Why wouldnt you want to show your players that they can accomplish this through hard work and resilliency? No matter where you came from.

Exactly, and maybe people don’t realize this, but the head coach hosts players frequently at their houses for dinners etc.

You need the space for a 85+ guys

He'd need a rectangular table 83 feet long with one at each end!

Is that scaled for linemen?

This is with or without the arm rests?

I'm guessing that when these guys are eating, their arms ain't resting.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

The money envy (by some) in this thread is disgusting.

To Franco:
You obviously “heard” wrong just $1.5 million off - we want a double bye for the basketball team not mistakenly posting a double buy for the football coach's new home. These coaches entertain players year round in their home. Your comment about “urban experience” is very weird.

 

[sutomcat]

Is that scaled for linemen?

I believe the equations are as follows:

1 OL = 3 PK
1 DL = 3 P
1 TE = 2 CB
1 S = 1 WR

Linebackers aren’t equal to anything. They are a different species.

Mrs Brown, please adjust your recipes accordingly.

Most CNYers people couldn’t afford the property taxes.

True, that's why I said rich CNYers. But things aren't better elsewhere. One way or another you're going to pay. That same house and acreage somewhere else could be $10-15 million rather than 1.5 million. And property taxes would be the same or more once you figure in the higher assessment. At least in Jamesville, you're going to get decent schools. He'd have to send his kids to private school elsewhere. Another expense.

Where I am, $1.5 million gets you a 2K sq ft house and 1/10 acre of land. Coach could have horses here!

it was only one person and consider the source.

I will let my source in the SU IT department know when I see him at indoor soccer this Saturday.

My point was double faceted. We have some very nice homes in solvay and it would be awesome if one of the SU coaches felt comfortable enough to live there and mingle with the masses. JD and FM have some sprawling remote estates that feel nothing like the rest of CNY.

 

[kcsu]

Maybe not poverty. But what about a place like solvay? Not high end but not a dump either. And his wife can rescue stray cats before they wind up on someone's dinner plate.

No. The original twin trees is overrated

 

[FrancoPizza]

Agreed. The one on Milton Ave is better.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Agreed. The one on Milton Ave is better.

Yes, The original is on Avery right around the corner.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Yes, The original is on Avery right around the corner.

Not to derail this thread but are both locations doing well? Seems very odd to have 2 restaurant locations right next to each other.

Well from now on only believe half of what he says.

It was actually in the paper, they just chose not to put his name in the headline. Only a few houses away from Wildhack.

The coaches want to be close to work. They are not buying a house to mingle.

Mansion in Jamesville sells for $1.5 million; plus 105 other Onondaga County home sales

You are directing your comment to the wrong guy. Francopizza is the OP and made the comment.
