Fran Brown Effect

[FloridaCuse]

You guys will not like hearing this, but Brown will never be hotter, even if he only wins 5 games. He is already on the radar of schools with deep pockets. I had them at 7 wins tops even with Angeli. If he can get 5 with his backup QB, he will be a hot candidate. It depends what he wants, but if they tank and win 3 games that might be the case scenario for Cuse to at least keep him another year or two. There are young guys in the pipeline, and the 25 and 26 classes look solid to build for the future. This just feels like a lost season, and the metrics are not good. Dino should have taken a job after his 10 win season, instead he could never match that success against schools w deep pockets in this competitive landscape. Maybe Browns dream is to coach at Syracuse, and other posters that are more clued in would know that more than me.

5 wins really isn’t getting attention. I get we like FB but no blue blood is handing out a massive contract with that.

Gene Chizik was hired by Auburn after being 5-19 or something at Iowa State. but he was a former D.C. at Auburn and Iowa State was a tough job at the time. It is pretty rare, however, for a school to dare to hire someone coming off a poor season (much less two). Even with a 14-0 season proving the doubters wrong, Chizik only lasted 4 total years at Auburn. Pretty rare to get fired 2 years after going undefeated. His original contract with Iowa State was for 6 years.

If Fran leaves next year after a 10-3 and (say) 5-7... the next job will be a short leash. If they start slow, the fan base will be "Fran Brown was all McCord and a weak 2024 ACC schedule." Maybe that's worth it, maybe not. He kind of has to prove he can win without having a really good QB to carry the whole team. Most SEC fan bases do not accept 38-3 losses very well.

Interesting (and sometimes humorous) article from Arkansas comparing the Syracuse and SMU coaches for the vacant Arkansas job.

When that writer gets to college, he will likely do a much better job.

You could be right when ya say he will never be hotter. Hmmm...but that would say to me that you believe HCFB will have a very disappointing future here at Cuse.
How hot will he be if we win 8 games with our backup QBs with this "tough" schedule?
Or when we make the playoff next year?
Or the year after?
Then if we win the damn thing?
Or when he strings together 5 10+ win seasons?
He would be at the top of all the lists.
Now if he ends up with the Dino trajectory...he will never be hotter than now.
Not gonna happen.

Horribly written article

maybe but I still found it "interesting and humorous" as described.
Plus the author clearly did his research that was relayed to the reader accurately.
