Message: [QUOTE="slashsnake, post: 2947046, member: 7214"] Jim Boeheim was being pushed out the door because of his 2nd probation. The idea was to get rid of him, and replace him with Hops. When Hops left, they should've still pushed him out and found a new coach. SU probably said, "oh, well we have to pay a decent coach more than $1.5 million a year? We'll just stick with the bargain and keep Boeheim." The university needs to do what's in the best interest for the program's success and its fans... By not building the future of the basketball program around a 70 something year old coach who can't recruit and sticks with an antiquated zone defense which contributes to the problem. I think the question is... Did recruits like Jonny Flynn and GMac want to play for Boeheim? or did they want to play for Hops? It seems like no top recruit wants to play for Boeheim. [/QUOTE]
