Syracuse Orange football is transitioning out of the Dino Babers era, as the search for a new head coach is underway. John Wildhack held a press conference Monday morning in place of the usual one from Babers, where he laid out what the program is looking for in its next leader.
Wildhack began the conference by thanking Dino for his time in Syracuse, calling him “a class act and a class person.” However, he also stated that the reason for firing the 8th-year coach was twofold.
First, it gives SU a head start with their search for his replacement, as well as time to reaffirm their relationships with incoming recruits.
