Message: [QUOTE="orangeinohio, post: 3148172, member: 824"] The Syracuse football program has been, over the past 20ish years, in pretty bad shape. There have been some good years but for a significant chunk of that time, SU has been either in the Bottom 10 or flirting with it. So, yeah, I think there are a lot of more attractive options for hot coaches. Yes, there are worse places to go to but, the number of worst places to go is a lot smaller when you're Syracuse. My point wasn't to drag Syracuse football or to be the 'I'm-just-saying' guy. My point was to realistically address the fact that it's harder to attract the people you want working here. SU football is consistently a project. It's not a program that's been basking in success for years. So, realistically, yeah, I think getting the coaches that you want at SU is likely a hard sell, especially considering this season's problems. But what do I know. Maybe we'll hire Mike Leach this offseason., [/QUOTE]
