Coach Search Options after Autry

[dasher]

You must know what "all the boxes" are to say this with certainty.

And, before you fire the BoT, the HC will be selected by the search committee and new AD, approved by the Chancellor, and sent to the voting BoT for fiscal approval.

If you are going to nitpick

And because of the lifestyle their job provides them, I have little sympathy. My sympathies go to the groups that have little to no safety net.

The successful ones might have a nice life, but the average or non successful ones are just grinding until they get fired.

Look at a guy like Steve Forbes from Wake. His days or years are numbered in a career he's worked forever at. Nice guy, but sometimes they finish last.

As I said, you can question their decision. You can question their judgment. Just not their motives.

If it's Hop I guess their motive is to save money, not hire even close to the best coach available.

I really hope we get this guy. It's very easy for Kline to hide behind Autry right now.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Brian the Shark Hodgson aka Baby Shark aka The Guppy is swimming in the kiddie pool. He should stay there for a few more years before jumping into the deep end. Hop is the man and is up to the challenge!

I assume you are related to Hopkins, or hate SU

 

[wiCuse]

What are we supposed to do? We can’t hire him now. If we don’t hire him it feels very much like the powers at be will have made a short sighted decision.

Doesn't need to happen now. If Hodgson keeps winning it can only help us. I hope he's starting to stack up offers from other schools.

We all know there's zero demand for Hop. The time will come when Hodgson will ask for a decision from SU if he gets an offer from another school similar to us.

I don’t think Hodgkins would command that much more than Hopkins. This would be his 1st big time job, so he is a risk in a different way. I’d be enthusiastic if he gets the call here but I’m not as 100% convinced he will turn it all around as you all are. He and Schertz are the “ Flavor of the month” candidates right now, so I would be happy with either one.

Zero point zero.

 

[FrancoPizza]

I would bet you anything bh would give them access. He grew up watching Su.

What access are we talking? Access to closed door practices? Private flights with the team? What access is Hop selling?

 

[Dcuse]

Zero point zero.

Sorry, no idea what that means.

He's from NY, grew up a syracuse fan, wants to be here. Great coach with a system that works, good recruiter, good fundraiser for nil money. The only box he hasn't checked yet is ncaa tournament success, which could happen this year. Not like any of the other candidates have had tournament sucess.

Mr. Blutarsky's grade point average. That's all I've got.

You don't need to sell me on Hodgson. I was talking about all the boxes the university might think are important.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

At this point if it’s not BH, Syracuse will never be able to be Syracuse again

We could be Utica.

Double secret probation!

I don't think their motives would be to save money by hiring Hopkins. What it would signal to me is that the decision makers to me have an outdated way of thinking and don't have a clue on what it takes to win at this level.

 

[McCuse]

We could be Utica.

We have to laugh to keep from crying these last few years!

 

[qdawgg]

Hopefully we aren't stupid and have him locked up before March Madness even starts, like alot of the coaching decisions last year.

Well….. about that

 

[cliftonparksufan]

We could be Utica.

Or CCNY. To quote Iron Mike. We could fade into Bolivian.

This was posted on Facebook. A sharp reminder that being a head coach or assistant coach is one of the toughest job in the world. But it's even harder for the coach's wife and family. Red's been lucky that he hasn't had to uproot his family very often.

It won't be because they cave in to any demands. They will look to see if the 30 million is for real. Among other things.

Do you really think, if Melo has access to anything near 30 Mil,that if we hired BH he would withhold it all? Wouldn’t that be tough on his kid? You’d think, from what I’ve heard, that Melo would want Kiyan to have the best roster possible.

I really think Kiyan could thrive under Hodgson as well. Much moreso than Hop, even if the iso ball has that comfortable familiarity.

I think he would have to be really convinced. And I don't know this, but since Bh is a Lally sponsor, I think melo just might be a little chapped that his name is below theirs on his bg.

It’s just what I heard, don’t shoot the messenger

I would be all on board with Gmac. The guy oozes his players to play with intensity and he gets after it.
