One of the more important hires we will want is Ben Lee. Looks to be Gerrys #1 assistant at Siena and also was an assistant under Hop. Played college basketball at Union so has strong NY ties. Looks like he'll be a strong candidate to get the HC job at Siena, but hopefully we can get lucky and he comes with Gerry to SU.

Cough up the cash for Lee and bring him here
From the rumors that Syracuse was really serious and was about to land Schertz before a last minute astronomical counter by St Louis, my guess is there is plenty of repurposing of resources to build the best infrastructure around GMAC possible.

At just 29, I’d argue SU for a year or two would be a better move. Get a nice pay bump help with a major turnaround and then go. It’s a generational thing to be in a rush but its a big shift at that age coaching guys not much younger and having to be the bad cop.
I dont think you pass up a chance at a HC job. Asst jobs will always be there

Maybe but it’s a higher risk being he would be likely the second or third youngest coach in all of CBB. I get striking when the opportunity is there too. I expect there might be some competition here with that job looking more attractive after the turnaround.
