It’s amusing to watch 95% of the fanbase slurping JW for hiring a guy they never heard of before yesterday.

They have been beaten and just accept whatever shit they are fed. I hope Fran Brown surprises me but anyone defending John Wildhack for this gamble are hacks. This hire best case scenario gets us on upswing when Brown bolts in 2-3 years. At that point hopefully we will be perceived better.

I’m actually ok with this hire. I just don’t think you can get anyone better, and have the money for NIL, and decent OC and DC’s too. I think Brown will pound the portal and recruit very well.

Mullen. Mullen would’ve cost more than Brown, and left us with less for NIL and the auxiliary coaches. Why do you think he said no thanks?

Depending on how much you believe wildhack he says he never spoke to Mullen at all.

It can only be a disappointment after getting all hyped on Mullen.
I really want to know what the story is there. Why did so many SU players start following him?
However, short of getting an established big time head coach like Mullen…..I really don’t think it friggin matters. Small time head coach, coordinator, assistant….whatever. It’s a complete gamble regardless. Cant hurt to try something different this time.

I know players read the forums so they prolly saw it all online

I know players read the forums so they prolly saw it all online That blows my mind that college kids still read message boards in 2023. Way back in the day(early 2000’s) there was a live interview on Syracuse.com with SU star fullback and future Denver Bronco Kyle Johnson. The interviewer was taking questions out of the Syracuse.com chat room. At the time, I posted…..pretty much like I do now, but turned up many notches. I was a controversial figure on the boards. So when they told Kyle Johnson who the question was from, he started cracking up as soon as they said my name. Made me feel good that he seemed to be familiar with my antics. He also shouted me out in the interview for asking good questions, as they used a bunch of my questions. So I knew players back then were reading the boards, but that was pre social media where message boards were the only thing out there, so everyone was on them at the time. I thought these things were like DVDs and CDs to the current generation of kids.

I thought these things were like DVDs and CDs to the current generation of kids. tbh I’m only 24 myself. I found Syracuse.com message boards when Shafer was here and that was my place till they shut down. Then I found Syrfan back when Babers was hired around in 2016 or so. I was only 17 then lol. as for players I know that there are quite a few players parents on there. I talked fairly regularly to an OL’s father on there and he mentioned there was quite a few who lurked. I wouldn’t be suprised if some of them told their kids and then those kids looked it up themselves. And then it spreads from there. I wouldn’t say all do but it just takes 1 and then the Mullen rumors spread. Or a parent tells the kid and so on

How Wildhack can gaslight this fanbase and people believe him shows how dumb our fanbase is. If Mullen was never a candidate wouldn’t thaf be an indictment on Wildhack himself. If a better candidate than he hired wasn’t actually contacted and considered for the job.
Wildhack is pulling a Beea he is trying to craft the narrative and gaslight this fanbase. He is lying but if you want to believe him why wouldn’t you question him even more if he was telling the truth.
Our fans will eat this shit and pretend he did a good job.
He is a joke of an AD and our administration sucks:
