I think he’s about as good a hire as we can get. Young, hungry, NE ties, great recruiter, and because he’s got no HC experience he won’t cost as much, leaving more money (hopefully ) for a better staff behind him.

Wildhack is a loser. Plain and simple. If his plan was Fran Brown when fired Dino Babers he has no business being in that job.
He let Jim Boeheim crater basketball. He gave Dino 8 years and hires a 40 old year position coach for a factory.
Such a stupid hire. Listen Fran brown can recruit but he isn’t getting the level of talent he has to come here. Just a stupid hire.
Wildhack sank and he probably it while paying Brown half of Dino got and making the BoT happy.
Wildhack would have been fired by ESPN but he is such a rockstar and we are so lucky we have this hack as AD.

Only chance Brown can succeed is if he get a top 40 recruiting class at Syracuse. I don’t think he will.
Kids aren’t coming here without NiL. We have a NiL foundation but it wasn’t good enough for Mullen. Fran Brown is going to jump the first second he can and we are paying for his on the job training.
Everything Wildhack said he was looking for in a HC he ignored. But the people will circle the wagons.

So what does “associate head coach” mean?
He was “associate head coach” at Temple, right? Curious what his job duties were when he held that title.

Associate head coach means you are the lead assistant. Means nothing major honestly. Fran wasn’t even the Defensive coordinator at Georgia. Kirby people has more influence on the defense than Fran Brown. Brown can recruit but recruiting to Georgia is easy. He isn’t getting the talent he got for Georgia here/ It’s just a throw in the dark and we are gambling. Just a gamble of hire and Wildhack couldn’t have anticipated this guy replacing Dino.

I agree it’s a gamble. How did he recruit at Temple and Rutgers compared to how they recruited before he was there? Sadly, that’s a lot more relevant to us than what he did at Georgia. If he can make Syracuse the #2 northeast school to go to in Jersey and New England again, and he’s able to put together a great staff, then it could be an upgrade over what we’ve been doing. That staff will be so important. People trash Greg Robinson, but forget how bad that staff was. Bunch of guys in roles they weren’t qualified for.

Bunch of guys in roles they weren’t qualified for. they got up to 33 in total ranking at Rutgers before he left. I saw someone screenshotted a Rutgers post from last year how they went from 6 4 stars the year he was there to 0 the year after. Obviously not all him but they mentioned him as a big part of it

Also I think it should be said; Dabo Swinney had never been an OC before becoming HC at Clemson, GA at Alabama plus position coaches and AHC at them and Clemson

With Syracuse.com reporting Fran Brown deal nearly completed, looks like he’s the pick. Really really ballsy hire by Wildpuke. Fran better pound that portal hard!

Dabo was the interim coach who replaced an underachieving Tommy Bowden and the team rallied around him won some games and he got the job permanently. Plus Clemson could always recruit.
This hire sucks. There is no reason for optimism if he is slightly decent he is outta faster than a speeding bullet if he can’t handle being a HC then we are stuck with him because we can’t afford buyouts because we are cheap.
We continue being the worst run P4 sports program but circle the wagons around everything Syracuse does like Tomcat says. That fraud just wants his free tickets from cto. God what a hack. Our top posters continuously punch down on people because it gets them attaboys.
This hire blows. I just hope Autry can turn it around next year. We need something to be Optimistic about.
Brown is a project this program didn’t need a project.
