I doubt this was an accident....in the article on the Syracuse site they list all his previous schools and leave out BU.

"Babers' rsum includes two head coaching stints, most recently at Bowling Green and previously at Eastern Illinois. Babers has held coaching positions at UCLA, Pittsburgh, Texas A&M, Arizona, San Diego State, Purdue, Northern Arizona, UNLV, Arizona State and Hawaii, his alma mater."

Rsum? Is that some sort of math term? I feel like im in Sid Rich.

If he gets a QB, he'll go next step.

Haha was not expecting my name to appear on this thread but I'm glad you asked. I'm happy for him, why wouldn't I be? That's badass and he earned it.

Babers posted back-to-back eight loss seasons before rattling off nine wins this year. If he was our coach and he had posted similar records the past years in Waco, I have little doubt the majority of this board would have wanted him gone immediately.

It's almost like...wait for it, he was building something up there in New York?

With him at the helm, there is no reason why Syracuse shouldn't be able to maintain top 3 status in the ACC Atlantic with FSU and Clemson. Of course, at the same time, there is probably only a matter of time before a bigger program comes to hire him.

It's fascinating that he's been able to make his offense work with a defense to produce solid results - he is 13 points away from 11-1 with the last loss coming in part because his QB was injured early in the game - but Montgomery largely has not. The jury is out on Kendal since he hasn't been a HC yet.

Enters 2018 as the ACC active leader in quarterback rushing touchdowns (20), quarterback rushing yardage (1,239), touchdown passes (40), total offense (7,711 yards) and total offense yards per game (296.6) Fourth in conference history in career yards of total offense per game behind only Lamar Jackson (346.7), Deshaun Watson (318.3) and Jameis Winston (305.5)

um, he was pretty good

Did I miss it, or was Baylor deliberately left off the list of schools where he had previously coached.

He's coached so many places, he probably forgot.

He's a senior. I saw him play a few times. This year. Pitt. ND.

I can appreciate the stats. I'm going by my eye test.

If I'm Syracuse, I intentionally leave Baylor out of the press release.

Some posters have said he was the guy who talked too much to PH's from the former regime's prospective. He's honest and maybe too honest.

The reason he has been a successful at Syracuse is because of his time at Baylor working under Briles and learning the offense. Good PR, and bad journalism, to leave that part out.

I called you out because you said, back when Syracuse was 3-0 or 4-0 whatever it was, that the only thing Babers was better at than locker room speeches was losing games. This about a guy who won at Eastern Illinois and Bowling Green and was already showing he'd rebuilt Syracuse by year 3.

Sounds like you're one of those people you're criticizing.

Good for him. He has done well there and with a few more recruiting classes could start to challenge for the top in the ACC.

Liberty wasn't D1 when we played them, but they are now, iirc.

Which is exactly why going 4-8 his first two seasons was understandable. They went 3-9 and 4-8 the two years before he arrived. Still not a great start but like nearly every good head coach taking over a bad team year 3 was his breakout year. Let's hope Rhule can get us double digit wins this year and get us back to 2011-2015.

With so much promise to start this season...after losing to NC State tonight they are now sitting at 3-3 on the year. Their 3 wins are against Liberty, Western Michigan, and Holy Cross.

Dino will have to run the table to duplicate 9-3 now.
