I think we only have 5 guys left coached by Babers

[OttoinGrotto]

Was looking at the recruiting classes and I think the only guys that were coached by Babers still on the roster are:

Rashard Perry
David Clement
Slimy David
Trevion Mack
Joe Cruz

Does that look right?

I don't really have any commentary here other than it seems crazy, but thought it was interesting.

Looks like I need to update the list.

Lucky for all of you I'm pretty lazy so it might be a while.

We should give Dino credit for the players he did have here who made the 2024 season so successful. Most of the core of that team were Dino's players - not Fran's, and they were sorely missed in '25. Seven of these players had all ACC honors in 2024.

Oronde Gadsden II (TE)

Trebor Pena (WR)

LeQuint Allen (RB)

Marlowe Wax (LB)

Justin Barron (S)

Alijah Clark (S)

Duce Chestnut (S) (well, + or -)

Jack Stonehouse (P)

Dan Villari (TE/QB/Utility)

Derek McDonald (LB)

Darrell Gill Jr. (WR)

Kevin Jobity Jr. (DL)

Jamie Tremble (TE/LB)

Jakob Bradford (OL)

Anwar Sparrow (LB)

Jayden Bellamy (DB)

J'Onre Reed (C)

Enrique Cruz Jr. (OL)

Joe Cruz (OL)

Denis Jaquez Jr. (DL)

Yes but…a bunch of them had one foot out the portal door before Fran came in.

It would be fair to say it was a team effort then. DB got them on campus. FB is credited with keeping them on campus.

This is the essence of why it’s hard for me to care as much about Syracuse football as I once did. I used to know every single player on the roster. Now I know a handful at best when the year kicks off. Hard to emotionally invest in a team full of strangers.
