Syracuse coach Fran Brown not letting new facility get in the way of football

Syracuse head coach Fran Brown isnt letting the excitement of their new football operations center get in the way of football. “If they coming just for the building, I don’t really want those kids that want to come just for the building.” “Syracuse is a great community, it’s a great campus. For us to have just different dorms and different facilities and everything going up, I think it’s always great for the school. I don’t really care about the buildings, to be honest. I’m happy it’s going up. Means a lot. I’m just trying to play, to be honest. I just want to coach football, play football, so I can watch these guys have an opportunity to go out and show who they are, how hard they’ve been working.” Coach Brown said when asked about how the new complex will factor into how he builds his team.

After breaking ground last fall the complex will include weightlifting equipment, locker rooms, lounges, eating spaces, offices and areas where student athletes can perform schoolwork and receive academic assistance. 

“Being able to feel the energy and support from the city, it makes us more excited to play, go out there and train harder. It makes us more focused, right? There’s so much more energy for us.” Syracuse defensive back Justin Barron said when asked about the excitement around this team.

The Facility is expected to open this December.
