Two winning seasons and one season that fell apart due to ridiculous injuries.  That season did have a woodshed beating on a Friday night versus a ranked WVU team. There is no disputing that Marrone had some momentum after the 2012 season, it was clearly the best team we had in 12-13 years, and was rolling at the end of the year. The class was going to be his best by far and yeah Doug wasn't killing it on the recruiting trail but demonstrated success developing kids and putting talent out there.  Shafer was a solid DC as well, as was his OC.  After 4 years, he had a good staff put together, Henderson was an NFL retread that was a great D Back coach that the kids really liked.

Sure he won with some GROB recruits and  what was he suppose to do run them out to?  he cleaned house when he got here.  However, he also developed the GROB kids what they turned into as well. I think he got the most out of Macky? No?

Marrone demonstrated what it takes to win here, average recruiting classes and developing kids.  He recruited some athletes and some tough guys.  He wasn't perfect but he did a nice job. He turned two running backs into really really good linebackers as well.

Again, good luck waiting for top 25 recruiting classes at Syracuse, it will not happen.  We don't have the product to sell and never really have
