## Resource

Syracuse Orange football enters a pivotal 2026 season as head coach Fran Brown and his retooled coaching staff face pressure to prove their program’s direction. With starting quarterback Steve Angeli healthy and ready, optimism is high—especially given the Orange’s impressive 13-4 record when receiving competent quarterback play under Brown. Can Syracuse finally shake off its post-bye week struggles and regain the momentum of their 10-win 2024 campaign? Jackson Holzer breaks down the revamped staff, including offensive coordinator Jeff Nixon, new defensive coordinator Vince Kehres from Toledo, and key assistants like offensive line coach Juan Castillo and defensive backs coach Perry Eliano. Discussion centers on whether this group can address defensive woes, reshape the offense around new faces, and elevate under-the-radar talent like Chris Peal and Demetres Samuel. Expectations are sky-high—will Syracuse assert itself as an ACC contender or see more growing pains?
