Why did Syracuse AD John Wildhack hire a first-time coach with minimal coordinator experience?
Syracuse, N.Y. -- When Syracuse athletic director John Wildhack laid out his vision for the next Syracuse head coach less than a week ago, he said he had a strong preference for a coach who had experience as a head coach or a coordinator at the Power-Five level.
And when the school announced the hiring of Fran Brown on Tuesday, it hired a head coach who had neither of those things.
Having just written that I have no idea why some coaches succeed while others fail, who knows?
