Playing career
Marrone was a three-year letterman at Syracuse University, playing from 1983-1985 on the offensive line; he returned to graduate from the university in 1991.[1] He played with the Miami Dolphins in 1987 and the New Orleans Saints in 1989, and was with the London Monarchs of the World League in 1991.
Coaching career
On December 11, 2008, he was chosen as Syracuse University's head football coach after the 2008 season by athletic director Daryl Gross.[2] He is the first Syracuse alumnus to serve as head football coach since Reaves H. Baysinger in 1948.[1] Prior to being hired at Syracuse, Marrone served as an assistant coach for numerous universities and organizations since 1992 including a stint with the New Orleans Saints as an offensive coordinator from 2006 to 2008.
Reportedly, alumni such as Tim Green and Floyd Little wanted Marrone from the moment Robinson was fired, and when interviewed by Green, it was learned that Marrone had kept a folder of current high school players in the Syracuse area to get a head start in recruiting.[3][4][5]
In Marrone's first season, the Orange finished with 4 wins, which was one more than the previous year. However, in his second season, the Orange won 8 games. The 2010 season was highlighted with a victory over a Top-25 West Virginia Mountaineers team and a victory in the first ever Pinstripe Bowl in New York City. The 8 wins in 2010 was the most since 2001 for the Orange.[6]
