Which Syracuse football coach would be the most reasonable governor of New York?

Yesterday, it was reported that former college football coach Tommy Tuberville was considering running for governor of Alabama. Tuberville has been a head coach at Ole Miss, Auburn, Texas Tech and (most recently) Cincinnati, and at 62 years old, he may be looking for a career change.

For SB Nation, this birthed the idea of other college football coaches as governors, which got us thinking: which Syracuse Orange football coach would be the most reasonable (or likely) governor of New York State?
