C Mart Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 lol So at least we see where it all came from. Apparently Marrone owed it to former Syracuse student Manish Mehta to coach there forever, even if the upstate NY NFL team offered him a major opportunity. He had no right to quit and move onto an obvious promotion (which undoubtedly came with a serious pay raise). Just like Mehta had no right to quit nj.com when the Daily News had an opening. Exactly! Explains Mehta's Twitter vile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he is killing a coaching candidate before he even has an interview with the team. This guy must be petrified by the prospect of not having a quote machine and source for news leaks on the team he is covering. He might actually have to do his job and do some reporting if Marrone gets the job. These beat writers who do nothing but disrespect this franchise need to be black balled. The Jets can't completly ban them for negative comments but they can make their jobs unpleasant. Their jobs are to pass on info about our team to us. Not attack everyone and anyone associated with this franchise. I'm sorry your press conference side show clown Rex is gone, now you have to come up with your own sound bites. And I could care less about Marone. He's far from my first choice, but he's not even signed and this guy is attacking him. What purpose does this serve to Jets fans? How did he "quit" on Syrecuse?

OuttaSightPF Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 A hell of a job at what? An overall losing record after 6 years, never had his team competitive for a division title, and he finished it off with 4 straight non-winning, non-playoff seasons. Yea, he did a hell of a job. These people that are still crying about Rex have an inferiority complex. Rex was a blustering loser who talked a big game and could never back it up. Insecure people love that stuff.

Jolot Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Here is the hypocrisy that is Mehta------ http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/jets/jets-coach-soar-syracuse-blog-entry-1.1631433 In 2002, the Jets hired a little-known assistant named Doug Marrone to coach the offensive line. He replaced one of the best in the business, Bill Muir, but Marrone quickly established himself as a bright, hard-working coach, a guy with a future. One of his pet projects was Brandon Moore, a former college defensive lineman. This season, Moore is playing at a Pro-Bowl level at right guard. The reason I mention Marrone today is because he's interviewing for the vacant head-coaching position at Syracuse (full disclosure: my alma mater), and there's no person more deserving of the job than Marrone. These are tough times for Syracuse, whose once-proud football program has slipped to the depths of Division I. Quite frankly, it's embarrassing, and the athletic director, Dr. Daryl Gross (a former Jets scout, by the way), is charged with the responsibility of finding the right man to clean up the mess and make Syracuse important again. Doug Marrone will do that. He will do it because he's one of us. He grew up in the Bronx (Lehman High) and turned down scholarship offers from Penn State and Florida to play for Syracuse, where he served as a captain in 1984. He will do it because he knows the game, having worked seven years in the NFL and 10 years in the college ranks. Currently, he's the Saints' line coach/offensive coordinator, working with one of the brightest offensive minds in the game, Sean Payton. Do you think the Saints are scoring all those points by accident? He will do it because he will re-establish the school's recruiting base in the Northeast. He knows the people, he knows the landscape. He doesn't need a vehicle navigation system to find the Jersey Turnpike from Long Island. Some of the area's most prominent high-school coaches are guys that were around when he played. In recruiting, those relationships are everything. But the unique thing about Marrone is that, as a former assistant at Georgia, Georgia Tech and Tennessee, he also has recruited in the Deep South. That experience would be invaluable to a program that needs talent in the worst way. Finally, he will do it because this would be his forever job, like it is for Jim Boeheim. Unlike the other candidates, East Carolina's Skip Holtz and Buffalo's Turner Gill, Marrone wouldn't use Syracuse as a steppingstone. The man bleeds orange, and his passion and loyalty to the school would be contagious. He would energize and unite the Syracuse football community, mainly prominent football alums, in a way that never happened under the previous coaching staff. Years ago, Marrone told me this story, and I believe it says everything about him: On the eve of the Syracuse-Nebraska game in 1984, then coach Dick MacPherson, reaching deep into his bag of motivational tricks, told each player to go back to his room and write an essay. The thesis: Why we're going to beat Nebraska. Please understand, Syracuse was at least a three-touchdown underdog, if memory serves, and there was no logical reason to think it would be a competitive game, much less an upset. Naturally, MacPherson's request, somewhat sophomoric, was met with some reluctance. Marrone, the dutiful captain, went to his room, pulled out a few sheets of loose leaf and started writing. He got into it and kept writing. And writing. And soon several pages were filled. By the end of his handwritten pep talk, Marrone was so full of emotion and adrenaline that tears were welling in his eyes. The next day, Syracuse went out and beat Nebraska. Final score: 17-9. You can look it up. "I was absolutely convinced we were going to win that game," Marrone told me once, probably feeling those old, familiar goose bumps as he related the story. Anybody who cares that deeply about football and his school is a guy I'd want running my program. absolutely fantastic man, great find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sg3 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I would love Marrone to land in NY. I couldn't stand him, his attitude, his conservative-ness, and how the offense regressed badly from year one to year two. He rode the coattails of a great defense to our winning record, and with a average offense, we'd have been in the playoffs, which was his department. We can do better.
