Q&A with former Orange FB Rob Konrad on Syracuse football coaching search

Syracuse, N.Y. — In 2008, former Syracuse University fullback Rob Konrad, the last man to wear the legendary No.44 at Syracuse, shared some strong opinions on the direction Syracuse football should follow after firing Greg Robinson from the position.

Konrad was the spokesman for a group of former Orange players who strongly endorsed Steve Addazio, who will coach against Syracuse for Boston College this weekend in Scott Shafer's final game as Orange head coach at the Carrier Dome.

Syracuse ended up hiring Doug Marrone for the position, who went on to a 25-25 record with the Orange with two bowl wins.
