It means that Chesney has never held a P5 job and I wasn't sold on him being ready for one now, especially at Syracuse. Nothing against the guy. Brown is ready for this, just ask Rhule and Smart.
I'm sure Chesney could have P5 guys say he is ready too. Both guys have their flaws and I am sure every legit candidate we were considering had them too.

I value scheme and organization just as much as talent. that said I totally get this hire and think it is worth the risk. As I stated earlier - good or bad we are back looking in 3 years.
 
Good lord, you are talking about getting the casual fan excited. Well, these casual fans don't even know who Dan Mullens is and they don't care. The casual fans will go to games when the team starts winning. So hiring a "named coach" doesn't mean anything to to the rest of Onondaga County.
I disagree. Pedigree would matter once news spread.

Is what it is, we will see how this plays out in time
 
appreciate you checking in man. You're a hard core college football fan as there is and I think you nailed this situation. We're certainly hoping that what your analysis suggest comes to fruition. It was great meeting you all those years ago and glad to see you're still "in the game" hoping for the best for your own, much like ours, program struggling to emerge. Appreciate you checking in. Best of luck going forward.
I kind of love how Al has gone from somewhat disparaged to legend status.
 
hard pass on a guy who has been floating around the fake leagues for the last decade
I believe the poster that mentioned him intended it as a joke. My point was this: no need to go back 14 years to find reasons to not want Jag.
 
Chesney is not coming to Syracuse as an assistant coach.
Agree and we don't need him. His draw was his organization not his offensive genius. I think he is a good coach but his scheme isn't the thing that makes him in my opinion.
 
There aren't a lot of people that can change your mind that quickly.

But Al is definitely one of them.

#legend
I was looking for a sign, and then…like a lighthouse when lost at see, or the Bat signal late on a crime filled night…I saw a light…and I knew I no longer cared about anything…..

HIRE BROWN
 
Good recruiters are good at communicating and good at relationships. I’d bet there are guys out there who he’s built connections with who will be all in on being on staff with him. There will be a lot of players in the transfer portal who he’ll have a good relationship with.

He reminds me of Tomlin.

Wildhack mentioned this trait a few times in his presser.

BC sloppy seconds if we ride the Jags express. May as well go get Frank Spaz to coach the Defense too
 
Rutgers North has a good ring to it.

I'm glad we are taking the tried and true Rutgers blue print and sprinkling in some BC magic too.
 
I wonder how the former Cuse players feel about this hire? Will they be included in some compacity?
 
Ga losing this week would help line things up, otherwise he wont be around to do much until mid Jan.
