Coach Search Options after Autry

BB Deputy AD at Washington from 2018-2022

HOP HC at Washington state from 2017-2024

We should’ve seen the overlap and maybe there’s more of connection.

Backwards. Blair was at Washington state. Hopkins at UW. Never together.

I’ve always liked Hopkins as a coach and let’s be real here is kept a lot of players on board when they wanted to leave our team because of JB a lot of people have a short memory here about what Hop has done for the program.

Still forgetting the most important part. Being able to coach a team to win games.

The win/lose record is more important than the friends you make along the way.

He’s been gone for a decade. We all have long memories when it comes to Hop.

Maybe Google that.

Im sure if you offer 10 mill a year over the next 3 years you can get your guy to the front of the line. $$$ Talks now and its almost the only thing. Even with all that it wasn't an SU alumni who was the 1st choice it was Hodgson

If he gives $30 million, does he get his name back on the top line at the Melo Center?

 

[richmondcuse03]

Hopkins is going to go over like a lead balloon with fan base. Gerry would sell more tickets.

 

[Scooch]

Blair was not making this decision unilaterally.

Another defenestrated AD. Wonderful. Way to go, SU.

 

[PoppyHart]

I’d take former Hoya Mikael Hopkins over Hop.

If we are announcing tomorrow the best case is either Skinn or Shaheen, I think. GMU played tonight like a team that knows their coach is gone and pretty sure Seton Hall declined to play in the Crown tournament which I wouldn't expect from a Halloway team.

Both are way down my list but at this point just anybody that isn't Hopkins so I can at least have some hope.

Wait wait wait. Someone on a post waaay back said “I wouldn’t be surprised if they announce tomorrow” and now many are taking that as Gospel. We don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow. We could all be dead tomorrow.

All I know is that I’ve been reading this thread since 9 PM and I can’t catch up. Good night, brethren.

This has to be a prank...


And shame on some of you for supporting this. It is terrible

Was hoping for a change with the Haynie admin - apparently not. Let the AD DO HIS JOB. Too many cooks in the kitchen in Athletics.

Not for nothing but Mike Hopkins has an excellent track record recruiting

Worse. Hop is going to cause a LOSS of tickets.

I can’t believe he could be a serious choice. What a failure by everyone involved. Clowns.

Be prepared for heat. While Vegas runs slightly cooler than Phoenix, we will be in the 100s for the next few days. Earliest 100 in Phoenix weather history.

I can’t wait. Other than my month golf trip last month. I haven’t seen the sun since October ! This will be me

He learned how to coach a tanking team, so that’s something

Unfortunately they aren't a tanking team, just a bad team. They have a draft pick this year; just losing for the love of the game.

That’s too much work. I think he gets to put a replica of his middle finger next to the Lally name.

 

[Lukeyloo]

He’s not making the hire

I assume it’s Haynie then. BB is too new and not yet committed full time to SU to have completed a thorough search. Also Haynie seems to be a big Boeheim guy..

 

[Scotch]

How was this our list? We take a crack at the top name on the market then immediately retreat to a guy working in the NBA that hasn’t sniffed a college job since he got fired for being bad at it?

Social experiment

Oh yea duh. And obviously those schools are far apart but both in the pac that fell apart around that time too.

Always post the wrong answer to get the right answer on the internet

Just not coaching

 

[Cuseregular]

If Hodgson pulled his name tonight, it now makes sense why…we’re making an announcement soon. Would not be surprised if it’s tomorrow.

Please tell me, Jay wright wants to join back in with John Calipari and Rick Pitino!

Think we gotta get Shaheen in here and start rolling
