Over on Syracuse.com this week, Nate Mink had a two-part series that looked at Randy Edsall’s role in the Orangemen’s football resurgence in the late 1980s, as well as what happened next.
As Mink discusses, Paul Pasqualoni, George DeLeone and Edsall were all considered to succeed Dick MacPherson as Syracuse’s head football coach after the 1990 season. Pasqualoni would end up getting the job, and DeLeone stayed on. But Edsall departed the program, on a road that would eventually lead him to UConn in 1999.
But what if Edsall had been hired instead of Coach P?
