All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
So which players are going to demand a trade after Marrone run them down?
Re: So which players are going to demand a trade after Marrone run them down?
and caughlin was the sameway when he came to the giants... guess what, he turned the team around, and got the stars on his side once they realized his system worked....
if the players arent willing to deal with, or work with a hard nose coach that pushes them to the limit (that the cba allows) i dont really want them on the team anyway

Re: So which players are going to demand a trade after Marrone run them down?
Marrone has been in the NFL and has seen what worked at New Orleans . While he may not have been responsible for the success at NO, he was in charge of the Jets' OL and got great play from his players. Chan Gailey's laid back ways didn't bring out the best from his players. I'm all for trying a different route.
We went through this before, successfully (Saban) and very unsuccessfully (G.Williams and his bullhorn). Hope he doesn't turn out to be GW2.0.
Very much doubt it, as all the quotes coming out from players he's coached, at the NFL level, seem to indicate that he's very much a straight shooter. It also seems from what I've seen from his presser, that he isn't ever going to throw his players under the bus in public. He might shake them warmly by the throat a lot in private, but it isn't going to be for all to see. Imho, that's very much an approach that most top coaches over many sports have.
Re: So which players are going to demand a trade after Marrone run them down?
I'm sure all the teams in the NFL would want to trade for a player who doesn't want to work hard under a new head coach. That's just the kind of team player everyone is looking for.

More on Marrone in SU:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Early in Marrone's first season, he gathered the players in the locker room one morning and had them clean the room so they could take more pride in where they spent their day. He required players to dress in a suit and tie instead of sweat suits on game days. He required they sing the Syracuse alma mater before leaving the field after a game. If players were late to class, he would have their photos put on TV monitors in the weight room.
