Message: [QUOTE="cmr27, post: 466407, member: 215"] I love Marrone and he deserves a 5-year extension but he hasn't delivered a signature win yet that will excite the casual fanbase. Beating West Virginia is been there, done that stuff. I'm not saying that's right but the one thing the fanbase always has responded to is big-time OOC wins. Mac blew the doors off with fan enthusiasm when SU beat Penn State in 1987. P took it to another level when SU beat Florida and followed it up with the Texas win. Marrone had a chance to do the same against USC but didn't get it done. He'll get more chances based on the schedule in coming years. I think he'll deliver and those wins will drive an increase in fan attendance... Or at least that's my hope. [/QUOTE]
