He’s won everywhere, is only 46, has rebuilt programs, has relationships with high school coaches in our six hour radius recruiting window, is supposed to be an excellent X’s and O’s Coach and well liked by players. Pretty, prettty good. That being said on this list I still think he’s my third choice. I think Tony could be the home run here but need a great plan to address the offense.
I think that is a guarantee, big picture, you do not fire someone prior to game #12 with a bowl game on the line unless you have targeted specific individuals. Keeping in mind the hope is to have a new coach prior to the portal opening back up, as well as hopefully retaining key players. I so wish Marrone was not a rehash, he, however most certainly is. We need a Northeast guy in my opinion with significant Atlantic, Florida connections. I truly think they know that. I am not a Bronco fan.
Well, if Bronco Mendenhall is a pipe dream, then I guess we have to move further down the list.
Wait, what does this mean?
I just know he’s a very well respected coach.
Yeah I’m not sure Bronco is a pipe dream but I see your point on the HC coach as well. Personally I would like to see Sean Lewis hired. Great offense, HC experience at a rough spot, and spent time at Syracuse so he knows what he’s in store for. I think some of these coaches aren’t quite aware of what the job entails here. Sean and or Tony would be and I think both are good coaches
I get the want some people have for a big name, but that’s just not who or where SU is. Fit is more important than flash. For example, Lincoln Riley is struggling to win at USC with Caleb Williams; he will not survive here and has not coached on the east coast let along the NE. Up and coming coordinators with experience in the region and HCs with success at previously unsuccessful programs is what is most likely to work here.
Well, he played BC better than Babers did, so he's got that going for him!
Yeah, Sean Lewis interests me as well.
The local Olympic equestrian of fame ( name escapes) has a HUGE place in Morrisville.
I would agree White and Chesney are probably the front runners, but only because Lewis might be headed to a bigger program. I think he would be the best fit of the three. He has Kent State as evidence.
Would you want him as the face of SU?
Kelly is pretty much done at UCLA there has been much hand winging there that is may be his last season
in my opinion this move would be similar to what Hack did with replacing Jimmy B and John Desko. It is akin to walking down the hallway and talking to Autry and Gait. As much as Lewis understands what he is in for at SU, he is still a retread from the coach you just fired. If possible I would prefer they went outside to find a fresh set of eyes. Dino was that and his first few years were a breath of fresh air.
You want more sanctions
I wouldn’t want that stiff as the face of a prison team. He sucks, another chump who rode the Bill/Tom train and then imploded when given a chance to be a head coach
CuseHulk???
Um, no
