Coach Search Options after Autry

Dicky V out there pushing for Bobby Hurley to get the SU job. Predictable.

You misspelled Dookie V.

I think they mean an orchard. Nothing to do with spruces.

 

[Briancuse]

Those apple smuggling rings. They can get you in trouble.

If Providence can afford the buyout of 5.8 million, this makes some sense.

This is simple honestly. If McNamara never played here no one would be clamoring for the second year Sienna coach to get the Syracuse job.

If Sienna lost the MAAC Championship game the clamoring would probably be about 10% of what it is now.

Are people really wanting a coach simply because he played here and his team won the last game they played? Autry played at Syracuse as well.

No. Its because Gmac is proving that he's a good coach, is adored by the fan base and entire area, loves CNY, is a great family man and yes is a legend who would absolutely get serious NIL backing.

How’s Peter Carey doing as a D1 center now?

Sorry, your basketball opinions are misguided.

He is a legendary player and icon. The way the bobeim era ended and what happened with red took away his option to coach here right now. Not his fault but reality

 

[Oakland]

The way Vandy is dismantling Florida, Byington is getting really attractive.

One can easily argue that Vandy has benefited more from the new era than any other school.

 

[23Zone]

Seems legit.

Level 5 legitimacy

 

[IthacaBarrel]

I can’t visualize Sienna giving UCONN “all they can handle”

And none of it should matter with regard to hiring the next HC. One coach is completely over matched from a roster basis and one coach could lose a game to a divisional opponent. Not a big deal in the grand scheme

Watching the game. I keep imagining Hodgson in a dark blue track suit with orange sneakers!

He can wear a speedo if he wants.

But so do places like Aimes

Take an unnecessary swipe at CNY, man up and take the flak.

And you can’t just ignore that stuff. I’m not saying he should be hired or not, I’m fine with him or Hodgson but these things do factor in because if you hire GMAC and get it right well game over and problem solved for 25 years. There’s value there. Yeah sure if it backfires I get it as well but I’m not in charge of making g those decisions

The duration thing is absurd. Worrying about being a stepping stone if we don't hire a lifer is wild... if someone is successful enough to leave, that means SU is extremely well-positioned for the next hire.

I think JB's long and rather unique tenure broke a lot of brains in the SU fandom.

Gerry is a good coach who will continue to improve. He's not my first pick.

I agree with that. Hindsight being 20/20, he would have been better served taking a HC gig like 5-6 years ago instead hanging around here during the decline. It’s not his time for the SU job now nor was it his time three years ago.

Don’t disagree but those who want to ignore what hiring Gerry would do for the program if he is successful back at Syracuse are kidding themselves as well. He is one of the most beloved players ever at Syracuse. (Insert post from 55 year old dude who loved Peter Wynn or Dave Siock more)

This Phillyboy commercial is offputting.

Honestly how is he doing? Forgot about that kid

LA Orange has a cousin apparently!!

It’s the same person. They both have 44.
