PITT Round 2 Post Game

[oldpinepoint]

Reds buyout is minimal at best, again you guys are barking up the wrong tree, Red returning is coming from above Wildhack.

They must be an idiot, the bottom line alone on lost revenue justifies getting rid of him

 

[Scooch]

We were all pleasantly surprised with the commitment to football. Why not wait to see what happens before being upset? Board conventional wisdom isn’t always right.

No point in being upset. But we all know Autry’s not going to be let go after this season. No chance.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Kiyan rethinking USC?

Hope he takes Sadiq with him.

And Melo's money.

But the next coach will look like Jason Kelce, so you'll have that going for you.

I'm calling it now - there's some stupid plan in place to give Red another year, and so long as Gerry doesn't completely crap his pants at Siena, he gets the job.

Gmac will absolutely not be the next coach, like Fran it's highly likely to be outside the SU family.

Wait, what? Still? When will he (or they) learn?

Thank you baby Jesus

 

[Franz69]

Wildhack might have his fingers crossed that we miss it. No transportation costs to put on his high-interest credit card.

Look at all the money we'll save on bus fare.

 

[NCo’range]

The first half was full of energy and harassing D.
Pitt couldn’t do anything with SU in their faces.
The second half looked nothing like the first. How in the heck does this happen?
I suspect that there isn’t much hyping up taking place in the locker room at the half.
?????

 

[Irt4su]

Red losing Good

Wildhak is the wolf

 

[MSOrange]

Kansas is another old program that is having trouble adjusting.

Wonder if they spent too much to build around a center also? Although Dickinson is better than Eddie, the thought has crossed my mind.

 

[Irt4su]

Grooming the team so Jimmy and Buddy can take over as co head coaches in 2026?

 

[BlackSquirrels]

I think the issue with canning Autry is related to former syracusefan poster John Wildhack nearing the end of his contract as athletic director.

SU leadership may not want to saddle the future AD, who hopefully has never posted here or commented at Nunes Magician, with Wildhack’s pick.

 

[Newhouser]

It's odd to me that in "selecting" Fran we were led to believe Wildhack had all the juice. Now he can't get rid of a mistake because he doesn't have the influence.
If he keeps Red he should step aside.

Probably that isn't the way in the college you build guards first then bigs after. They are extra not first.

Umm, not sure that makes it better.

Just cheap is better than moronic.

You would think with the success of the Fran hire they would let him do what he sees fit with the hiring and firing of the major sports teams but it is never what is best for the actual team but it is all politics who cares if Red can coach as long as someone on the BOT is happy

Who? Or whom? Let’s be transparent and talk about what’s really up.

But...but..he CALLED it. There's no taking that back!!!

 

[sufan59]

The expectations for how next season needs to go has to be continuing to rise. Does it feel like as a Syracuse fan, we’re just outsiders now as fans in the college basketball world?

 

[djcon57]

Who? Or whom? Let’s be transparent and talk about what’s really up.

No we have to allude to things very vaguely so then when it doesn’t happen we can say plans changed or make excuses

 

[orange79]

Well, there's not that many people/groups above him.

So, the usual suspects.

 

[Dcuse]

Pitt went on a 74-47 run after we were up 16. But sure, NIL is the reason why we suck.

Wait, are you saying we were run 74-47 and you don’t think it’s because our team lacks talent?

 

[Idiocuse22&]

Do ya think GMac was thinking to himself...Let me go get some head coaching experience at a lower level, let this NIL stuff settle in and good luck Red.
If it works out the way I think it will, "Ill be back"...in 2030. After Red takes over for a legend, an outsider comes in and does well enough to be hired elsewhere for more $ and I come in like its 2003 all over again...?
Ill take it.

Who knows yet if Gmac has the chops for it? I bet he does...

 

[Scooch]

I get what you’re saying. But you know I’m sick to freaking death of the constant vague posting that people do here.

Speak plainly or shut up is how I see things these days.

Are there people on the Board of Trustees specifically who have demanded that Red be brought back next season? The Chancellor?
