Are the players back on campus yet? I know students aren’t back until this weekend but heard in another thread trill was there on Tuesday. Seems like you would want one of your better defenders around to talk to a potential new coach

You are going to let the players interview possible new coordinators?

Who needs an indoor facility in San Diego?

 

[Newhouser]

Need to get those escalators in as part of the renovation. Hopefully the current Dome name holder bought into this before they split from United Technologies. It'd be part of the path to retaining their name on the stadium for a bit.

is that part of the improvement? know some opposing coaches who have sat there and they all say it is Mickey Mouse that they have to walk thru the crowd.

 

[JRHEETER]

Exactly. One thing... Swag Daddy must stay.

swag daddy has no plans to leave...currently

I'm pretty sure that's all on the agenda

 

[upperdeck]

coaches walk thru the crowds at a whole bunch of stadiums besides SU.

Interesting - I have never seen that. Are these P5 and/or ACC schools? Just curious

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

That host was talking us up like we have better facilities than Bama...geesh how bad are the San Diego State facilities?

I dunno, but when it is sunny and between 65 and 75 every day, other than a weight room and nice locker room, what kind of facilities do you really need? Let's face it, these coaches and players are a bunch of spoiled brats. Shame on folks like me from pumping them all up with an inflated sense of importance.

Duke for one (it's the only ACC school I've seen a game at other than Cuse).

Players have to be back by 1/12. Classes start 1/13.

Did anyone know that Rocky's wife, Debbie, was a former basketball coach, on the college level?
Also, if she loves working with horses; we have Olympic Gold medalist, Beeze Madden who lives in Cazenovia!
Just saying.

They can buy the Tuna's house and spend the summer.

Yeah for about 5 months a year. She's in Florida when it gets about 45-50!

I asked a legit question lol yet 401k and Syracuse weather discussions get to stay.

What if Dino interviewed him and didn't like the answers and decided to pass?

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Why ask a "what if?" if we haven't announced a DC yet and Long hasn't taken a job yet?

Maybe the answer is self-evident: We move on.

 

[TheCusian]

I held out for a bit just due to comfort and then made the jump to CA. Have never regretted it for a minute since. CA was aggressive because it costs a zillion dollars to live there. FL and TX however have pretty reasonable cost of living and 0 state income tax so it's been nice.

chugg you can live anywhere and find info on anyone? Are you Jack Reacher

and yes I'm trolling the thread

Can we try to get back on topic please?

He wouldn’t be saving any money living in Saratoga

not interview. But if you had this guy close to being locked down I could see him meeting some of the players

Bah. Who said anything about saving money. He's got enough money and would make enough money to have a house in Dino's neighborhood and a nice little downtown condo in Saratoga Springs for the summer so his wife could hang at the track. He can save money on Saratoga County's property taxes.

 

[SU94]

So, are we all in agreement that in the last 24 hours, things are at least trending in a positive direction?

• RL resigned from SDSU (so, he wasn't using the trip to get a better deal)
• Scott Kaplan (a SD-area media mainstay with some ties to either the Aztec program or RL) says RL to Syracuse within two weeks
• No blanket denial from the Ensley Athletic Center

Not a ton to go on, but ... the last 24 hours have been a net positive, correct? That's how I'm seeing it.

Umm what? Hasn’t half this thread been about how his salary would go further here if he took a pay cut?
