We have talked a lot about the need for Syracuse Orange Football to get smarter on and off the field, with recruiting strategy, on field risk management, general player development, and all of the things that go into turning a bottom level power 5 program into something respectable.
It seems that Dino Babers is doing what many head coaches have already done and looking to bring in a numbers expert to help evolve these processes, as Syracuse has a Director of Football Analytics position open. New Offensive Coordinator Robert Anae and Quarterbacks Coach Jason Beck are intimately familiar with this role as it was helmed by Matt Edwards at Virginia.
