Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1886676, member: 569"] Originally I felt this would be his last season to avoid the retirement lap. The NCAA can't hold him to the "retirement plan" and he's made plenty of statements last season and the off season that make me think that plan was just more brilliant posturing and strategy by SU to get the NCAA off our arse. If this squad is as good as it appears to be and we bring in a highly touted class for 2017 I have a hard time seeing him walking away at this point. I hope he keeps coaching for as long as he has the competitive fire to do so. Sure you can squabble about his coaching and critique it but its almost impossible to replace him with a coach that is the same caliber. And that has nothing to do with Hopkins its just that JB is one of the best. [/QUOTE]
