Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 1195168, member: 289"] 1) We've never brought a big-name coach in in our history. Ossie Solem was the only guy who'd even been a coach at a major college school before and he was not exactly legendary at the time. 2) Empty stands and a state that produces single digit major college recruits aren't the sort of thing famous coaches find attractive. 3) You have to pay famous coaches several times what we play head coaches, even our famous basketball coach. 4) What we would pay a famous coach would come out of the rest of the budget, including what we would pay assistants. 5) The famous coaches usually became famous at schools that gave them much more to work with than they'd have here. 6) There are usually reasons why famous coaches are 'available' and we'd find out what they are when they got here. Famous coaches don't come to a place like Syracuse. Coach become famous at a place like Syracuse. [/QUOTE]
