On the latest episode of Syracuse Sports, Brent Axe and Chris Carlson discuss the emergence of Fran Brown as the front-runner to be the next head football coach at Syracuse.
Who is Fran Brown? What is is background and how did he come into the lead so quickly? Brent and Chris discuss the heart of Brown's candidacy, which is his reputation as one of the top recruiters in college football. Brent also shares with the podcast audience when Brown interviewed with SU AD John Wildhack and their communications since, according to a source with knowledge of the process.
Brent and Chris also weigh what it means for Syracuse to choose Brown over Holy Cross head coach Bob Chensey and Toledo's Jason Candle, who are also reportedly in the Top 3, and Chris' story about the state of the Syracuse job in 2023.
Brent and Chris also react to opinions and questions sent in by our Syracuse Sports Insiders.
