Another Coach Leaves

Some of the ships crew must have brought their own binoculars. Not sure if Hamrick has his locked away or if he thinks sailing toward a starless spot on horizon is the best little ole Marshall can hope for.
Heading to Syracuse. I remember back in the day coaches would leave and everyone would rave about how great a previous HC was to get guys in here and they would move on to bigger jobs. Now, it is just jumping ship.
It's a far better conference and better pay but for what is going to be a very unstable program/head coach.
Syracuse's last eight years are:
8-5, 7-6, 3-9, 4-8, 4-8, 4-8, 10-3, 5-7.
Babers himself is 4-8, 4-8, 10-3, 5-7. Other than one great year, he has done absolutely nothing differently from the previous coach who was fired for the same results, but Babers was given an extension based on one winning season with a very experienced team that he didn't recruit.
West has both defensive coordinator and recruiting coordinator experience. Giving him one of those titles and the salary bump associated could have helped. Many coaches will forgo a jump in program/conference if it means they become a coordinator, which is why it's very common for position coaches at P5 schools to take coordinator positions at G5 schools.
Either way, it's not good for a program to continue losing coaches regardless if it's for an inferior position (analyst at FSU/lower position at Colorado State) or for what is perceived as a superior position (Marshall to Syracuse at the same position). It's a head coach's job to recruit his coaches as well as he recruits his players. But as we've seen, both the recruiting of players and the recruiting of coaches has been poor.

Anyone that leaves that’s been associated with our secondary is an upgrade IMO.
That’s back when we had head coaches that knew how to coach.
BEST COMPLIMENT for a Head Coach......¨get your assistants prepared to move on to better paying jobs outside of Huntington...or where ever....¨
DONNIE JONES & GREG MARSHALL comes to mind for me!

we have issues. but I don't think Doc is that desperate yet.
Because if there's anything folks expect from a career in coaching, its stability.
The Syracuse program is a step-up with a lot of that having to do with being an ACC program. The stability there isn't going to be great. Other than one year, he hasn't done anything better than the previous coach who was fired for the same results. He just did some major house cleaning after the season trying to save face.
I highly doubt it is set aside as a minority slot. Without West, there are still three minority coaches on staff.
And the claim wasn't about Baker. It was about Pearson. Before Pearson's hire, Marshall only had one minority on staff (Mirabel). And as the coordinator at the time told me, "He's whiter than both of us combined, so Doc is insisting we make this a minority hire." He went on to say that if they couldn't find a good black coach with running back experience, they would just hire a good black coach and teach him how to coach running backs.
Now, where is the $200 you fvcking scam artist?
I will be honest
I find offense in hiring a coach just because they are black. That is pretty much saying you only have this job because you are black not because you are talented.
