Jason Beck

First you have to like Jason and his family, they have been great additions to the Cuse team.

But I have also heard (from multiple folks) he was a bit over his head this year and other coaches (as they should) have really pitched in to help him in the new role. Also we don't know how much HCDB was limiting what he could do.

Regardless thankful for him, I thought he's done a nice job.

Remember back to all the fans saying this was an easy transition and he would be better than Anae. Being a first time Offensive coordinator is a big transition. I’m sure this will be great experience for him and he will grow immensely from this opportunity. Would love to keep him on staff. But from the sounds of it, sounds like that’s not happening.

JRHEETER did he have a bad experience, family doesn’t like it, not what he signed up for, mendenhal getting the gang back together?

Obviously it’s up to the next coach, but it seems like a forgone conclusion based on your comments that he is gone. Obviously, you don’t have to share, just curious if there is more info.
 
Promising coach that is collateral damage. It's a shame but it happens all the time in this business. We'll survive and so will they.
 
Whoever he chooses for OC will have the keys to the offense. I’m sure Brown will have input but he is ultimately a defensive guy. So he definitely needs to nail this hire.

Keeping Beck would depend on what Brown’s offensive philosophy will be. Air raid, pro style, power running, etc.

It's gotta come down to what is easiest for Syracuse to recruit up here?
 
I actually sat next to them at the Duke/Cuse basketball game last season

Great folks, kids are extremely well behaved

Jaime isn’t bad to look at either

You dirty dawg

Btw - throw my name into your DM’s for future inside info since some people on here are morons and now nobody shares anything compared to years ago.
 
He is definitely gone unless something absolutely insanely crazy happens
JRHEETER, do you think he would have left if Dino had stayed? I'm just curious if it's the coaching change or if he and his family didn't really like it here. It's a shame, they seemed like a great family and he seemed like a good coach. Guess that's the world of coaching though

That’s a great question

I’m not sure, I think the Dino firing was the final straw.

I’ve heard from multiple people very close that they felt he was very overwhelmed with the position….

However; what he did the final game, is something special so who knows.

Perhaps his wings were clipped a bit earlier in the season


But from the way his wife sounded, and this is from before we even had a HC rumors, she was saying goodbye

So it doesn’t seem to matter to them who the coach is.

I wouldn’t be surprised at all to find them heading back to Utah

Please DM me as well any info you get if you decide not to share in the open.

Upon reflecting, I think they stay if Dino is still here……


So I guess, if Fran Brown is interested in Beck it could happen, but it seems as tho they are packed and trying to find a new place to land

Sounds silly, but at a private school like Syracuse, having the whole family be visible and supportive, goes a long way.

They were attending because it was their twins birthday

They had the names on the video scoreboard and they got all excited when it popped up.

It was pretty awesome, but I also was shocked that I was sitting next to our OC and family in the 300s

Or How about the architect over the last 3 games was essentially DB, we have to remember Dino, was always RUN HEAVY through the tackles. It was definitely a group effort. Once CDW was deemed out and Schrader unable to throw something had to be done. Do not forget who was here at that time as the orchestrater. They were all forced to play the cards they were dealt, It worked to a degree.
 
The QB problems are mostly on him CDRW regressing no 3rd option despite Shrader coming off a major surgery so I don't think this is the end of the world.

Good enough coach that I hope he goes back to BYU vs pops up at a peer ACC school mind you. Anae is having a great year with NC State.
 
Somebody is going to get one hell of a coach in my opinion. His adjustment over the last 3 games got us a bowl game and his playcalling against Wake was phenominal.. He is destined for big things in coaching.
I like Beck and would be fine if he is the OC next season, but how can you not call a few downfield passes for Villari when he is completing 100% of his 10-20 yd screen passes in the GTech game -Dino!?
 
It worked to a degree.
It generated unheard of rushing numbers and almost 30 points a game. The passing was just implemented and could yield many big plays per game. That was just implementing out of the blue with no preseason practice time. Had they switched before the by, probably could have won the last 5. If Brown wants to win football games, he really should watch those last 3 games and think about keeping Beck and that scheme. Also you don't have to recruit or use much NIL on that side of the ball, leaving funds for some impact defensive players.

Same, please include me as well JRHEETER

Ultimately, I'm fine with whatever the new coach elects to do with his staff.

But there's no telling in advance what type of offensive system Brown will choose to run, so fit will determine the direction he goes with the OC. If it's Beck -- cool. If not, that's cool too.

Either way, thanks to Beck for his service here.
