2024-25 Coaching Carousel

If he builds UNLV into a winner we will not be able to afford him.

Exactly

 

[PauliePeppas]

UNLV seems to have major financial issues. If Hodgson puts together a good year he can easily be one-and-done to Cuse.

SU apparently does too

 

[Fly Rodder]

Seems like the coaching cycle is every 2-3 seasons. This has been a pretty wild one so far.

I thought the last can't miss coach was Todd Golden and he's shown it, but he's had some ugly bits too. There will be a few available after next season. The bigger issue is going to be after SU extends Red when he makes the tourney next season and the Melo support dries up after Kiyan leaves.

If he builds UNLV into a winner we will not be able to afford him.

And if he doesn’t we won’t want him. Me, I can’t see the future as clearly as some of you guys.

 

[phil77]

That is wild if B12 team is able to steal an ACC coach away LOL ACC so down bad

 

[phil77]

And if he doesn’t we won’t want him. Me, I can’t see the future as clearly as some of you guys.

Correct either way he will not coach here probably. So that is over. If he bombs there we wont want him If he does well a bigger school with deeper pockets will

Nah I will say I was wrong because I liked him. I liked him because he ran a modern offense. Multiple high pick and roll offense trying to isolate mismatches and either dunks or 3s. He is very intense, good recruiter, and from the northeast and at the time was very very cheap. All seem like a good fit for us. Will he be a good P4 coach who knows but that is worth a gamble IMO if we weren't going to break the bank for a proven coach.

Yeah, he does feel like one of those guys who with the necessary resources/backing will build and maintain a winner

 

[pearl31]

Disagree with "in unison". There are posters who happily admit they are wrong when they were wrong...and some who don't/won't

yep, was (mostly) tongue-in-cheek

 

[Cusefan0307]

Another Coach who we haven’t spoken about who could be a great fit at Syracuse is Darvin Ham. lead assistant with the Bucks and was the Lakers head coach for two years. (90-44 record) He’s known as a great defensive coach

There is absolutely nothing that would make him a great fit at Syracuse.

There’s no reason why Hodgson can’t be SU’s head coach a year from now if there is a vacancy.

Yes, it’s true, just heard it from the inside at USF

 

[Frozen]

 

[rhcuse]

Why does USF keep trying to get a seat at the adult table in men’s hoops? It will never happen.

Wow. Out of left field.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Our Arkansas State guy just became HC at South Florida.

Used UNLV for more money, savage

So wish we were part of this coaching change cycle. Hopefully Hodgson doesn’t have a large buyout at USF.

I don’t like SU basketball relegated to irrelevance. We’re getting very close if things don’t change.

If he builds UNLV into a winner we will not be able to afford him.

We won’t be able to afford him one year from now? I’m no worried about that at all.

Well it looks like we don't have to worry about him building UNLV into a winner.

Why are you panicking that we won’t be able to get him next season? Let him move from a low major to a mid major level and see how he does, and then we’ll get him after next season if he succeeds. If he does, he’s a perfect fit for SU being from New York State and having coached at Buffalo for years.
