No he’s not. We’re a lateral move.He has built a very solid program at Wake, if Dino flops, he is near the top of the list.

I don’t think he’d take the jobHe has built a very solid program at Wake, if Dino flops, he is near the top of the list.
Not to mention that Cuse would never offer anyway.I don’t think he’d take the job
I don't know if your name indicates that you're a dad of an SU player. If you are, thanks for joining us. I'm also not sure how long you've followed SU football. Maybe it's longer than the 4+ months you've been on the board. If it isn't, I'd ask that you be careful when asking us, many of which are life long diehard fans, to be patient. We've been patient while getting out teeth kicked in for the better part of 15+ years. If we hadn't been, we wouldn't be here right now.
A+ trolling.He has built a very solid program at Wake, if Dino flops, he is near the top of the list.
Dave Clawson is a very successful coach who has built strong programs at many levels. I don't rally understand what you and others here have against him. When ever I watch Wake play, I am impressed by how hard they play and how well coached they are.A+ trolling.
This is a master class.
I never said you weren't allowed to post (not sure where you took that from). But telling people to be patient that have been patient since the time your daughter was in kindergarten is misplaced. You've been patient for all of 3 years. Most on here have had to be patient through 4 coaching regimes.SU DAD x 2 = my moniker indicates I am the father of two current students at Syracuse.
Am I not allowed to post here if I'm not a lifelong diehard fan or a parent of a player?
Ok, I'll "be careful."
I've been following college football for more than 45 years. Coached HS and JC for almost 12 years. I am a fan of the game and the process.
Never followed SU football closely until my daughter applied and we visited in the fall of 2018. I found this board after a second child decided to attend SU last spring. I am not a lifelong diehard fan. Which might actually allow me to be a little objective. But I get it. You don't want objectivity. You want to storm the Dome and hang the coach in effigy if the team doesn't meet your expectations. Good luck with that.
Disappointment usually comes when your expectations don't match reality. As I look at this roster roster with 65 freshmen and redshirt-freshman, and only 10 seniors (including 7 RS-Sr), as well as a two-deep depth chart (that came out today) that includes only has 6 seniors in the 47 position players listed, I know I will temper my expectations.
47 position players listed in the two-deep depth chart today; 6 seniors, 8 juniors, 12 sophomores and 21 AARP card carrying freshman.
I will be patient. You do you.
Clawson’s a donkey hole.Dave Clawson is a very successful coach who has built strong programs at many levels. I don't rally understand what you and others here have against him. When ever I watch Wake play, I am impressed by how hard they play and how well coached they are.
He makes a lot less money there. They have few fans and almost no chance to become a serious contender. Syracuse offers all of those things to the right coach.
1. He’s boringDave Clawson is a very successful coach who has built strong programs at many levels. I don't rally understand what you and others here have against him. When ever I watch Wake play, I am impressed by how hard they play and how well coached they are.
I’ve been a fan for 30 years and have been making the case for patience this year.I never said you weren't allowed to post (not sure where you took that from).

I'm rooting for Dino. I want success, and I hope it's with him. I'm just suggesting that you have some perspective when telling people what to do that have been following SU football for decades on numerous iterations of this board while you've followed for 3 years and been on the board for 4 months.
You really need to stop saying it's a lateral move, Syracuse's ceiling is way higher than Wake's.1. He’s boring
2. He’s a dork
3. All that is besides the point. He’s not moving laterally to Syracuse from Wake.
Certainly we want some cool guy coach, winning is a secondary consideration.Clawson’s a donkey hole.
And our ceiling is way higher than Dave Clawson. The last two decades have really beaten down some fans into having such sad aspirations of mediocrity.You really need to stop saying it's a lateral move, Syracuse's ceiling is way higher than Wake's.
I don’t think most in the coaching profession see it that way. Guys who leave programs they’ve built up typically go on to a step up.You really need to stop saying it's a lateral move, Syracuse's ceiling is way higher than Wake's.

He's kind of picked up a faux southern accent. He's outUnless he decided he wants to come home
I am about as pro-patient as they come, but I have one issue with your roster analysis that GoSU96 did a good job highlighting earlier this summer.SU DAD x 2 = my moniker indicates I am the father of two current students at Syracuse.

Starting to feel like this is Dino's Akron. Sure Ohio is a bit better than the Zips were in 2007 or 2008 or whenever that fiasco was. MTSU still hasn't gone away. Losing to a mac school with a first year HC? It was unforgivable for Gerg. This isn't just a must win to get the ball rolling, this is a must win for Dino to save face. We lose this game and we don't get 30k for Rutgers. They might announce more but it will be a sea of open metal and bad reverb in the ears for 4 hours.Football: What we learned from Tim Albin's week 1 press conference
