Significant Change Is Coming

Would kill for another year of Kyle. Hes my favorite player on this team.

You can have Kyle, but you have to take Red back for another year too.

After Coach P, football has had 5 coaches over a 20 year span.
The net result is we're still hoping that the program will turn into an upper level program in a relative weak conference. TBD.

When the BB program is turned over, what are the REASONABLE expectations going forward. If it struggles initially, how much time
will the fan base give it? What will be written into the contract, and what resources ($$) are out there in this new world of NIL and the portal? Lots of questions, no guarantees.

Until he backed off of Donald Hand.

Uva is the poster child for how to do it and that it is possible. They had an interim for a year, turned the whole roster over, and are playing very well this year. It just takes a really good coach to lead the team and they found one. Hoping and praying we can do the same. We need to get back to being a meaningful impactful program.

I will not be upset if the program changes 100% as NIL has re-programed my sports state of mind.

Donnie is not going to stay in a million years...would love to keep kiyan, kyle, and sadiq and build around them with some transfers.

Kiyan and Sadiq have not impressed me, over all

Did they mean "exacerbate"?

Exacerbate. Edit my bad Mike I didn’t see your post, but yes. Oh people with their words

Me personally, if it's a proven head coach at a mid-major, I'd give him 2 years of mediocrity at worse (if the proven head coach comes in and only wins 5-10 game in the 1st year he's got to go, and 1000% would have to go if that was in year 2) before him having to right the ship by year 3. Which is basically what every legitimate college is doing.

I couldn't care less what Melo thinks about the change or if any player stays including Kiyan. This Syracuse program needed a change the last five years of the JB era. To have JW hire a JB disciple that doesn't know any other system was a huge mistake and that is what has led to where the program is today. Get outside of this crazy "Syracuse Family Tree" crap and hire a high end coach and staff.

Where do you think a bunch of our NIL money came from?

he's a master exacerbater .

 

[wiseman3]

Kiyan leaving would be really bad optics, but yeah I think a fresh start for everyone would be most likely

 

[Jasoncuse]

I don't care who stays or leaves.

The main thing is to hire an actual Head Coach, one with a system that will get the most out of the team offensively. We need real leadership and somebody that will come in and completely change whatever it is we do now.

Also, I would like to retain Kiyan for the reasons discussed above. Unless he wants to leave, there's no reason we should not want him back and under better leadership.
