Biggest question on Marrone which we will never know the answer too, is what would he have done in 2013 after losing Nassib, Pugh, Lemon and Sales.. His recruiting was getting better as we lost some key guys once he left.  Doug is/was a good coach, I don't think there is much debate there.  People get wrapped up in his personality but most coaches are thin skinned edgey s because of what the job entails these days and working under a microscope.

I liked Doug and still do, he was good for SU when he was here. He had some really really nice wins when he was here and I always felt like we had a puncher's chance in every game,  He had some great game plans when he was here and two bowl wins., and as many have said the end of the year in 2012 was about as good as it has gotten here in 15 years, easily.  He came here with the best intentions burned out on the reality of what was in front of him and probably wasn't happy on a few empty promises. Two way street.  Not saying Doug is a saint or perfect but I liked him and wish he never left for the most part
