Coach Search Options after Autry

[Cuse1055]

I admit I haven’t been following this closely. Do we have a legit chance of getting him? Sorry, this is probably a redundant question.

According to the tea leaves, yes very much so.

Hodgson rolling out some 2-3 zone and they rebounded out of it!

Auditioning

I wouldn’t expect the school’s website to produce negative commentary.

His players don’t play like they don’t want to play for him

Trust the username, but my thought as well lol.

Hodgson is two years in the making now. Don’t screw this up whoever is in charge from SU.

 

[TommyA13]

I hope we don’t mess this up…

If we can’t get Schertz then yes I agree

 

[qdawgg]

Hopefully Heather likes him as much as we do…..

 

[TommyA13]

CJ Brown and Wes Enis starting SU backcourt next year with Kingz as 6th man

Are they ACC level players? No hate against them, I just haven’t seen either of them (or USF) play

100% all in on Hodgson. In his first year at USF, he only has 3 conference losses. One by 2 pts in double OT to UAB, 1 point loss to Wichita and 1 point loss at Temple

Enis is 1000%

Honestly Hodgson may be the better fit in the end

I don't think he is the best coach but I like him the best for us because his style is completely opposite of the way we have done things for so long and I think our program needs that sort of shake-up in the worst way. We need to modernize the program from the inside out.

 

[Cuse1055]

Lally being on the AD search committee and us most likely also looking for a new coach is no coincidence….

The way that USF spaces the floor, attacks, and just keeps coming is a lot of fun to watch.

Isn't that really down to a couple reliable 3 point shooters?
They don't really have any bigger guys than we do inside.
And we have seen how that works against good teams.

Missing the point. Hodgson is maximizing the talent he does have. He gets his best scorers shots in places where they are most efficient based on analytics. If he had an effective post up player, they would feature that.

They are 10th in the nation in scoring. That's more than just having "a couple of reliable 3 point shooters."

23/25 from the line. Lol

They don’t have a non shooter at the 2. It looks foreign to people here.

What I'm seeing barely even looks like the same sport to my eyes. Just watch how they MOVE on offense.

The meaningful comparison here is not what pieces SU and USF have... but how they are used.

Good timeout They got a little sloppy with the ball

 

[Cusefan0307]

I don’t agree that they don’t have a good big. Nelson is having an excellent season. 16/10/1.5/1.5 on 60 percent from the field
and 70% from the line. He’s fantastic.

If Betsy can increase his motor some he would be great in this type of system

 

[phil77]

Great play out of the timeout by Hodgson

 

[OrangeinNH]

You have to assume that he would be able to recruit slightly better athletes on average at Syracuse than at USF (otherwise we don’t improve much). This is also his first year at USF vs Autry’s 3rd go round. I think his team plays differently, much less iso than our offense.

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

At Cuse he'd get the players to finish those dunks!
