Except he wasn't giving our AD a blank check the way Knight does for Oregon.
Would be crazy if SU poached the Miami Coach.
Yeah that would send some shockwaves in the CFB world
I would include Tiquan Underwood and Damiere Shaw on that list. Tiquan has worked with Coach Brown at Rutgers and I believe Damiere has worked with Coach Nixon at Baylor and with the Panthers. I think Coach Nixon is a mentor here.
He was my choice
They are undefeated. Now back to our scheduled program.
Either way it’s a classy move
Shaw would be a good option as well but I believe Rutgers just extended him (presumably with a decent buyout) when Penn state came sniffing around looking for a rb coach in last 2 weeks.
Oregon is currently one of the top programs and now have a blank check from Phil Knight. They will not be coming to take any of our WRs.
They did. No doubt he will be expensive. That said, I think we paid Coach Douglas pretty well to get him to leave the Pats.
I don't think he burns a bridge with Fran over a couple of recruits
It is not all about $$$. I just turned down a job as a senior QA manager for more money. I had previously toured the company's facility they wanted me for and I was not impressed, and through others in the business know that the culture was not one I wanted to be associated with. I also turned down a job to go back into production as a senior production manager because of untrustworthy leadership. Sometimes it is knowing what is best long term, not just $$$
He still woulda helped somehow ya know.
Was there evidence of it though? Maybe there was stuff going on behind the scenes, but all I saw was a guy bringing some celebrities to courtside seats. I didn't see a guy wanting to ensure his school had every chance to succeed.
Yep and agree that is also an option as well. The poster I was responding to though was saying he didn't understand why Ross took the same job and things like more money, program reputation and other perks and benefits will often be compelling reasons to make that type of move.
In part because it isn’t his school. He went to LIU and then the NY State penal school for an 8 month graduate degree in check fraud. I have read a lot about deals being offered, but very few made. Good for him for putting a portion of his wealth to preserving, celebrating, and building bits of CNY but as far as Syracuse is concerned, his only affiliation is a relationship with JAB. I am not sure why people don’t want to understand that in this relationship, he seems to take more than give, and leadership at SU felt their own integrity and NIL was worth more than the $1million he was offering.
We know that the reason fair was here for her senior year was the NIL for her was paid by him. She stated as much. And that was over 200,000 dollars. That was after the Chancellor told him to go.
I think the Board of Directors has other criteria for deciding if the chancellor is doing a good job or not.
This should be a huge plus for us in the portal~ potty~.
