Bulldog, someday we'll catch a game together and I'll pick up the nachos tab. All you can eat, buddy.

Great now we’ll be stuck with the lady who came in from Pitt who sucks (knowing Syracuse)

7/1 makes much more sense. Will allow him to hire the new BBall coach and get the NIL set up appropriately.

I’ll take that bet..,

So in

This makes sense. Suspect the new chancellor will want their own AD. Stepping down in July facilitates that.

And John is not going to leave without hiring the new mens hoops coach.

So a new AD comes in with the second biggest post in the department recently hired by the old AD? That doesn't seem right. Also what has been preventing him from getting the NIL set up appropriately?

 

[Orangezoo]

I wonder if JW would stay involved on the NIL front in his retirement in ways he couldn’t as AD… just a thought

 

[Cusefan0307]

Will he rejoin the board?

Syracuse AD John Wildhack will retire, remain at school until July

Syracuse athletic director John Wildhack will retire and remain with the school through July 1.

What do you mean rejoin?

 

[Blanko97]

So are we just hoping and praying for a Heather Lyke redemption story of her reputation at this point? Is that the plan? Because that is a bold strategy...

Im not sure why you wouldnt be confident that the person who oversaw the demise of pitt wouldnt be a perfect fit here to bring us back to glory!

 

[TommyA13]

Will he rejoin the board?

Yes, he’ll be making his return to syracusefan

If what dasher says is true and the replacement isnt already on staff then im not sure how that could possibly fly. I hope they are already talking to eachother about candidates because hiring a coach as a lameduck AD seems like a terrible decision

Syracuse athletics has been chronically sick for a long time. I wholesale change of leadership might not be the worse thing for SU.

I assume the new guy will hire new coaches in most of the major sports, right?
