On the latest episode of Syracuse Sports, Brent Axe and Emily Leiker go in-depth on Fran Brown as a man in order to decipher how he will lead Syracuse football as its head coach. 

Leiker's deeply reported profile on Brown lends some insight, but Brent and Emily examine what has stood since Brown took over as head coach 9 months ago. Emily also provides some behind-the-scenes insights from Brown, his friends and family that didn't make her story that may shine a light on how he'll be as a head coach.  

Brent also examines how Brown taking over Syracuse football compares to past coaches like Dino Babers, Scott Shafer, Doug Marrone, Greg Robinson, in their first seasons.
