Coach Search Options after Autry

[Jake]

as expected, he asked, thru his agent, about available nil. in today's world its always going to be a question.

Before one signs on the dotted line.

Game starts in 45 minutes win or lose this thread will pick up A loss the GMac team will be out in full force

This thread might turn into a war zone if Hodg loses today lol

 

[RyanCuse44]

The irony is would Weitsman put us over the top with NIL and seal the deal? Lol

Why are some of you wanting SU to reengage with this guy? To go through the headaches again.

I don’t think so, I think it quickens the negotiation with Hodgson.

 

[Jeremy L.]

I don’t think so, I think it quickens the negotiation with Hodgson.

Especially if they aren’t an at-large bid. At that point, it’s just waiting to see which school he selects

 

[Nicknack]

Earlier today, I went over to the football side to learn more about what is happening with NIL that has been alluded to here. Boy, that's a joy fest. Anyone in a good mood who wants to feel sad, it's a good read about our current state.

Not to mean to Hodgson or USF but that is what I am hoping for due to selfish reasons of just wanting this done

I understand him going to the tournament and doing well might get more hype from the casuals behind him but I don’t care I just want it done and move forward

Public leaks like that could be helpful with a new chancellor. But I doubt it.

Of course they will. Means nothing of course but they’ll be yelling

We're sick of losing.

 

[RedtheGOB]

It has been rumored he is doing exactly that... And Hodg and agent are likely upping the NIL requirement and using PC to get the bid/offer improved. No surprise there.

If we can't outbid PC successfully for Hodg, then yes, we have problems.

I think our fanbase is so unused to the hiring of a new hoops coaches that we think so much of this process is some crazy string of events that only Syracuse is experiencing right now. It's really not.

If anyone has went into an interview desperate because you were out of work or about to be laid off it's a nightmare. You can expect to get lowballed and you're prob not going to be the top candidate. It's the opposite when you go into interview with multiple offers in your back pocket and ideally with momentum, that alone is going to get you to the top of the list and more money.

It's no coincidence that it was leaked that Gmac had interviewed at BC and had heard from GT, same as it's no coincidence that all the sudden BH is interested in PC and they have top tier level resources being thrown around.

It's also not a coincidence that this is all happening right now while both these coaches at the peak of their year. Every coach looks like a genius winning their Conference tourney, but that shine goes away real quick if they get ran off the court by 30 in the 1st round.

So he can not donate much money and bring celebs with him to the Dome to call attention to himself. A win-win!!

 

[anglerman]

Absolutely not he never was a big donor he was just self promoter

 

[Cuse1055]

Martelli Jr. should get major consideration as well. About to be 27-7 and win the conference. Made the tournament at Bryant too. Actually his resume is better than Hodgson’s.

 

[Cuse1055]

Just looked and VCU actually beat USF this year too.

 

[Cusefan0307]

True, unless he has something really bad on AW to block reuniting the donor base, it appears from the outside he has lost all of his political capital.

Lallys were the root cause of that downfall to begin with. Not sure how it changes with Haynie.

He should try to get every dollar he can. It only benefits the program.

 

[Willy75]

Hell of a coach. Not sure he’d be ready to leave VCU yet because his dad coached there. Maybe if the right opportunity presented itself.

Phil Martelli was a legendary coach - at St. Joe's.

 

[Cusefan69]

You're spot on.

We NEED to come up with the money he wants.

Not sure if this thread or another but I thought the issue was not money per an insider at this point and it was something other. Which I took to be a good sign. Perhaps salary and other items are good and it's just firming up nil?

The money I am speaking on is the NIL money.

Yup, you’d have to think he’s on the list. Checks so many boxes. Probably learned a ton from his legendary coaching father.

I’d be fine with PMJ

My opinion is BH wants a number from us for NIL and whatever number that is he wants assurances that number is real and we can get it. If we are in the same neighborhood as Providence then he will come to Syracuse

This sounds like the consensus opinion from a lot of people. Probably correct

If he actually sent in the checks he promised years ago and on IG.

This is correct.
