How soon after an HC announcement are the coordinators typically chosen by the HC?
 
He has a losing record fwiw
Are you talking about this year? He's in his first year of yet another rebuild. Nebraska went 3-9 and 4-8 in the 2 years preceding him there. Rebuild guys often has losing records their first few years at a new program.
 
The only I feel good about this hire is if we get successful, experienced coordinators. Don't need them to be great recruiters-That'll be for Fran and the position coaches. Just need to be able to call a game.
 
How exactly does the "official" word come out from the AD's office? Asking for a friend.
 
I think this is a great hire. I don't live in Syracuse but I've been following SU football since the Archbold stadium days when I was a kid. Hiring up from a lower tier is unlikely to cut mustard with 4 star players. All want to be "fine young gentlemen" but 4 and 5 star players want a better path the NFL. Syracuse has almost never recruited more than one 4 star player per year, and mostly they weren't very good. There are never guarantees, but a guy from a top tier program would impress me. No expectation that Syracuse can rival Georgia in recruiting, but being a top 20 to 40 team in recruiting would be great, as has been mentioned. I am excited about SU football in a way i haven't been in a number of years.
 
I would Suspect if it was true they would announce It at Halftime at the SU game tonight, But than again , what do I know.
They could announce it out right before to get attention on the hire on ESPN. Then follow up with an appearance in the Dome at halftime and/or a press conference tomorrow.

The appearance may not be possible and they could just announce it and have a press conference tomorrow too. I imagine they want to leverage the ESPN attention for maximum gain tonight. However, that depends on the contract.
