New AD: Mark Coyle from Boise

[City of Cuse]

Ahh I was at Twin Trees 2 on Milton Ave.[/QUOTE
It tells a ton about a person with which twin trees they eat at. There are only two acceptable twin trees locations. Twin Trees original and twin trees two.

 

[DoubleDee]

Sounds like a good guy http://www.scoout.com/college/boise...912786-this-is-what-mark-coyle-is-really-like Take out the extra "o" in the dirty word.

Which brings up a good question. Can we get in ours? At least the main hall? I think we should be able to check out the IPF, and the FB WING at fanfest.

 

[Stern]

Cuse is not Boise.

Exactly. Schedule cupcake city on the football end.

Unless you live just a few mins from one

Is the one on Rt 11 no good?

COYLE A HOME RUN HIRE FOR SYRACUSE

Exciting hire. Hey, they did something right!

That's my location. So it's awesome for me.

 

[Chip]

Is Axe stealing your material? Or are you axe? Brent Axe ‏@BrentAxeMedia 38s38 seconds ago Mark Coyle checks off football. Also known for fundraising ability and Boise St sports had highest academic success in school history w/him

Nah, he had 6 things, I only had 2.

And I'm much better looking.

 

[CuseOnly]

Is the one on Rt 11 no good?

IMO the one on Rt 11 in North Syracuse owned by Mr Ross is the best one by far.

Long wait and tough to get into on a Friday night.

 

[Rocco]

This is fantastic news. I've heard over the last few weeks that football was going to love the hire. I remained skeptical, but this is a helluva good fit.

Fundraising, football, compliant. This is a huge "commit".

Syverud is a stud.

 

[Jake]

Blasphemy! Having grown up on the west side, I'm somewhat appalled that twin trees even exists outside of Solvay.

Back to the topic at hand...great hire here. Fundraising seems to be his strength. I would think people in charge of athletic gifts should be a wee but nervous. I have a feeling that this guy is going see a bunch of former players in charge and nearly stroke out.

This must be a huge win for Syracuse since it's almost a universal love fest. Also a lot of people seem to want an Orange field.

Can we get a BOOM!

I had a couple too many beers last night. First night out of the house with the wife since the baby was born. I'm sure the rt 11 one is a fine establishment.

Very excited about this weekend for Cuse. Good things come in threes.

He was a finalist for Pitt too right? How does he stack up with the guy Pitt hired? Curious why they chose elsewhere? Not denying that he looks like a solid hire

No blue and gold clothing

 

[Crusty]

This is the ultimate BOOM!
I have admit that I was worried about this hire with the names that were out there. None of them was really what we needed, which is why I would have opted for a young guy rather than a retread or a guy from a lesser program. I think if we had known Coyle was a candidate we would have picked up the pitch forks and torches and headed for The Hill to demand he be the one.

Coyle is 47, a nice blend of youth and experience an he comes from a lessor conference, but a program that is in a much better place than ours at the moment. He has good experience in all the areas in which we need help.

There are only 66 P5 jobs, but if you filter for great basketball programs, our job is even more elite than we might think. He could be here for a long time.

Now, I hate that blue field but Orange would be beautiful!

Welcome Coyle family!! Krystan (Doctor of Physical Therapy), Grace, Nicholas and Benjamin.

 

[orange79]

This seems like a home run hire. Welcome Mark Coil!

They got a good guy in Scott Barnes in Utah State. I think Coyle fits us better.

Your foot is better looking than Axe.

 

[OrangePA]

Which one? I was at the Liverpool one.

I wish I had been there!

Love the pizza!

 

[OrangePA]

This seems like a solid hire.

He has a strong external background - he knows how to raise money.

He has experience with big time football and basketball programs.

And, apparently had to navigate NCAA compliance issues at Boise.

He should be able to hit the ground running.

It will be interesting to see how/whether the department's culture changes.

I'm an original guy.

 

[Bayside44]

Heard good things from a source in Idaho. Says he's a great guy, down to earth and accessible. All the things I assume the TGD was not.

Very excited about the future of Syracuse University.

TGD was an open book if you talked to him.

 

[Crusty]

This hire has to be a big positive for recruiting in both FB and BB. Not only a big question mark out of the way, but he comes from a respected football program as well. His Kentucky lineage can't hurt in BB.

Psyched!
