Coach Search Options after Autry

[kingtidge]

In kind of hoping someone with some Syracuse ties

Great way to make the decision ...

Leo Rautins, come on down.

Our canuck recruiting would be off the charts.

Call pitino and have him say no. I’d take him for 3 years to come full circle.

Establish the culture of winning again and working hard.

I’d call thad after he says no. We need stability asap.

You really need to drop the Pitino thing.

1. It ain't happening. Ever.
2. Wishing it will is only going to leave you disappointed.

Hopefully, he wants to coach on the highest level. Sounds like it from the video below.

But DanielA above already confirmed that he ain’t coming to Syracuse.

 

[NCo’range]

I'm not opposed to the idea of considering Eric Devendorf.
I mean he has coaching experience.
Why do I think his feisty persona and knowledge of the game of bb would be good for our team?
I like his broadcasting and he thinks and says things about cuse that I think about.
Am I insane?

Can we just hire a real coach it’s not that difficult

 

[NCo’range]

Yes. That's bonkers even for a message board.

I thought hiring coach fb was bonkers.
But, besides that.

To provide valuable input on the next hire, yes I do trust him to know who would be good and who wouldn’t be good. To run a program, absolutely not, I want to see him climb up the analyst rankings at ESPN.

But DanielA above already confirmed that he ain’t coming to Syracuse.

He values cincy over Syracuse.

 

[CuseCPT]

I hate to say it but we might need to bring back beoheim for one year as a bridge to the future.

Jim Boeheim is a bridge to the past. Not the glory days, not even the Bubble days, the not in the tournament days right before Red.

I hate to break it to you, but your use of AI didn’t help your advocacy for Devo.

Being special assistant to the HC at Detroit Mercy is hardly a qualification for HC at a P4 school.

That's like being pledge representative to the social committee.

I’d call thad after he says no. We need stability asap.

Why would he leave the better funded program he's at to come here? Nostalgia for the cup of coffee he bought here in terms of his career?

Okay okay… I get it.
No Devo then.
I promise not to mention him when the school contacts me for my opinion on the search.

Cite your source. Where’s the quote from his mouth that says this? Otherwise, it’s hearsay.

 

[jordville]

Coach Christopher Bess anyone?

I have a new leader in clubhouse, name has been somewhat mentioned before is John Groce at Akron. Dude was fired at Illinois, but he wins at Akron. It’s a new era and Syracuse has the GM to help with the talent acquisition part which I think was his shortcoming at Illinois. Worth a second chance?
