Message: [QUOTE="Finwad32, post: 1503494, member: 651"] I won't lie, Skippy was my choice before Marrone's name surfaced. Hindsight aside, as soon as I heard about Marrone and did some digging, I thought he was THE fit. Alumni, local coaching roots, worked his way up through the ranks with some very intriguing stops along the way followed by NFL experience. At the time I feel like we needed somebody who understood Syracuse to help us build it back up. Not to mention the OL experience was a huge plus as well as being part of a New Orleans Saints staff that at the time was probably one of the hottest in the NFL. It's funny how these conversations bring back memories. I'm always smarter in my memories. [/QUOTE]
