Syracuse football officially introduces Tony White as new defensive coordinator

Syracuse football finally has gone through the formality of making the Tony White hire official. The news was announced via an official press release on Friday morning.

This will be the team’s fourth different defensive coordinator since November, but Orange fans are hoping this partnership lasts a little bit longer than some of its predecessors.

Syracuse football head coach Dino Babers met with the media earlier this week for the first time since the end of the season and was asked about the reported Tony White hire.

Babers said he couldn’t confirm or deny the reports and for good reason considering what happened last month with Zach Arnett.
