Fran is definitely not afraid to take risks and coach it his way.  Everything about his hire was unconventional and he is trying different approaches.  Some will stick and some will not but I respect how he is looking at things through a different scope.  Fran is also willing to take criticism and apply it.  I saw him mention how Wildhack and associate AD Herm gave him some things to try to improve his sideline demeanor.  He applied them.  Today I think you have to be willing to have a growth mindset to be successful.  I will give Syracuse a lot of credit for willingness to give him rope to do it how he wants to do it.  We have tried other conventional or flavor of the month (orange is the new fast) approaches to it and fell flat.  We have a coach who really wants to be here and improve in every aspect of the job.  I hope he finds success.  I have been critical of Wildhack in the past but the more I see how he gives his people the freedom to do their jobs in the way they see fit and also step in when needed goes a long way with me.
