Biography

Jeff Nixon enters his second season as Syracuse's offensive coordinator in 2025, following a record-breaking campaign in his first season as the play caller. The Orange led the nation in passing offense during their 10-win campaign that saw them finish in the top-20 nationally. Quarterback Kyle McCord broke or tied 24 different program records, led the nation in passing and finished in the top-10 of Heisman Trophy voting in Nixon's inaugural season with the Orange. Everyone thrived under Nixon's leadership in 2024. McCord threw for 4,779 yards, setting a new Atlantic Coast Conference record and 34 touchdowns, shattering the previous school record. The ball was heavily spread around to various offensive weapons. 'Cuse had a pair of All-ACC receivers (Jackson Meeks and Trebor Pena), an All-American and All-ACC tight end (Oronde Gadsden II) and an All-ACC running back (LeQuint Allen Jr.) as the four all had 60+ receptions on the year, four of the top-11 receiving seasons in program history. Adding in Darrell Gill Jr., who also had over 500 yards receiving, made Syracuse the only school in the nation with five players with more than 500 receiving yards. Meeks went over 1,000 yards on the season and Allen rushed for over 1,000, the first time Syracuse had a receiver and running back each go over the 1,000 yard threshold in over a decade. In addition to the skill position success, two offensive linemen - Savion Washington and Jakob Bradford - also earned All-ACC honors. Nixon, who
