Fran Brown

[Blanko97]

How many of them won 10 games
How many of them got 5 star recruits out of the portal and high school
How many of them have hit homeruns on their first two QBs that started season one and season two
How many...
This game can go both sides

WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE FRAN

We can be lucky and still demand more. At the end of the day wins are all that matter

 

[SU68]

Did he? Move on? I don’t remember much of a youth movement in the first 3 or 4 games post Clemson.

They can only play four games without losing their red shirt.

 

[PAcuse]

Agreed
I expect more out of him and his staff the rest of the year
If him and staff keep this there needs to be changes. Hard talks, hard choices, mabye a new system(s), and a review of how they target players in the portal.

The softest generation has taken over.

It’s always funny when the old guys need to announce how tough skinned they are.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Fran Brown is no Marcus Freeman.

Either is anyone else. He’s the best coach in college football and I despise ND.

 

[Pyle]

I know nobody likes to listen to me but I’ve said it and keep saying it, expecting anything other than what we got this year after Angeli went down and Ricky struggled is just unrealistic and whiny. You don’t win in the acc with freshman qbs not recruited by Clemson. Lost season, sophomore slump for Fran, get over it. We’ll be alright. Joes over X’s and O’’s, Frans bringing the Joes, give it time.

There’s seemingly not a single thing to dislike about Freeman. Guy is a total class act and stud coach.

I’m GenX, which means I dont have thin skin and I dont squat when I pee. I love dad jokes in all forms.

I didn’t say it was offensive. I was saying it’s stale, unoriginal booomer slop.

No problem going 3-9. But playing like an FCS team while doing so is completely unacceptable.

Fran will never recruit well enough to out talent the opponent.

Exactly, 8 straight blowouts where we are noncompetitive. Avg score during the skid, 38-11. All the good vibes from 2024 have been obliterated. This is worse than Gerg-era incompetence.

Syracuse destroyed by Notre Dame 70-7 in worst loss since 1893

Syracuse suffered one of its worst losses ever Saturday, falling 70-7 to Notre Dame. SU trailed 21-0 before ND's offense took the field.

dailyorange.com

Certainly the worst loss in modern history, only surpassed if you go back to 1893. How about you leave his family out of the discussion, and drop your sermon.

The sermon certainly wasn't about losing and certainly in the fashion in which we did it was calling a person a clown, You keep your sermon and I will certainly keep mine and at the end of I guess we will assess the balances, actually our life will be weighed before a balance definitely with a couple of variables. Whether we accepted grace and how that affected our treatment of other people. Let me know

Anyway thread titles changed so it’s all moot I guess

100% agree with this of the 30 guys he’s bringing in 3 of 4 are typical Syracuse guys that people convince themselves are better than they actually are. Sure 7-8 of them are highly rated but this staff can’t coach a lick nor can Fran but he wears cool sneakers and belts! He’s an asshat

 

[tbonezone]

tomorrow , tomorrow you'll thank me tomorrow...

And yesterday his jacket. They have proved they can recruit and coach. The question is still out if they can work through adversity. Let’s see what happens.

Yep very cool jacket! The throwback starter. Loved it actually but that’s Fran. All hat no cattle. He’s the sales guy that takes you out to big steak dinners buys crazy wine, strip clubs til 3 am but when you call him 2 days later to talk shop he knows nothing and tells you to call tech support. no technical skills just a sales guy just like EROB. He is 100% a total fraud. Guy can’t coach. He’s a great recruiter but that’s where it ends. Dino couldn’t coach much either. Hope he moves on from EROB and O line coach at least, needs to surround himself with better X and O guys and just recruit. Worked for Mack Brown. Fran also needs to quit coaching position players, just wear cool sneakers and jackets and recruit please

ND could have very easily scored 100 points yesterday. Think about that for a minute. If ND coach wasn’t a good dude they would have

 

[tipphill]

Hes been here less than 2 years. Jesus. Guy has a great class coming in next season. We are a mediocre lower to middle level program. Get a freaking grip

Let's see who actually shows up.this loss was devasting for recruiting

Congrats on the win yesterday

 

[FloridaCuse]

Pretty sure we’re going to be the Sarah McLachlan Special on Josh Pate Show tonight it was that bad.

What is that? [for us older folks.]

 

[FloridaCuse]

It was so beyond bad it was -bad. nBC could not even cut away like accn, espn and others had in past blow outs that weren’t nearly as horrible to watch. SU’s good will was evaporated

Ugh.

Oh, I think Syracuse still as a good name. Just having an horrendous season.

 

[Marsh01]

I disagree. Guys want to play immediately and they can if they come here.

 

[FloridaCuse]

I still support Fran.

It appears that our recruiting has been upgraded, which is critical to any long term success.

Admittedly, he stepped into it by getting McCord, and he did a great job getting Angelini. Rikki seemed like a decent backup plan, nobody thought he would end up being that bad.

Next year may well be the tipping point one way or the other assuming Angelini comes all the way back.

My biggest disappointment has been the D, but even then it is hard to evaluate when the O keeps putting them back on the field.

The reality is that we will never by a consistent Top 25 program. Success here should be to get to a bowl game and maybe a Top 25 cameo once in awhile.

"Angelini"?

 

[sufan59]

What is that? [for us older folks.]

Josh Pate is probably a top 5 podcaster in the national college football world and each week he awards a game for being the most lopsided, embarrassing, or disappointing game of the week while playing “Angel” by Sarah McLachlan in the background.
