Darrell Perkins, an experienced defensive backs coach who has coached three conference title squads and a pair of New Years Six Bowl participants, has joined the Syracuse football program as an assistant coach.
Perkins will oversee the safeties and rovers in the Orange's 3-3-5 scheme. He most recently spent the 2022 season at UMass, where his unit ranked in the top-10 nationally in passing defense, allowing just 175 yards per game through the air.
"Coach Perkins has a long history of working with defensive backs and we're excited for him to join our program," said head coach Dino Babers.
