Following another losing Syracuse Orange football season, fans were pretty certain there would be coaching staff changes coming for SU. Thus far, it seems that changes are occurring — just not the ones we were expecting initially.
According to reports on Sunday, two Syracuse assistants have already been let go. Defensive line coach Vince Reynolds is out, per Yahoo’s Pete Thamel, while Syracuse.com’s Nate Mink reported that tight ends coach Reno Ferri also won’t be retained. Both coaches have been on Dino Babers’s staff since he first arrived in 2016.
Most Orange fans would’ve expected to hear offensive coordinator Sterlin Gilbert was let go first and foremost after the team’s late-season collapse.
