Coach Search Options after Autry

[AZOrange]

Wasn't there also supposed to be a search committee? I never saw an announcement as to who is on it like we did for the AD. Or did they just end up canning the committee?
Because bottom line is that we are on a tight timeframe here.

Yes but they didn’t say the names like they did for AD. Have to think at least some are the same (ie Tirico). JB indicated he’s not on it.

Gotta assume it is not going to be either Hopkins Or Gmac. This pick is going to come out of left field just like the AD selection. Please don’t let it be Holloway. Maybe Martelli or Gallo? Su admin is gonna screw this up again aren’t they?

Can’t be Gallo the GMac crowd would burn everything to the ground

I’d rather not watch more zone after we got away from it for three years even if the man to man was pathetic

Better luck next time, Toga

I do think Gallo has a bright future, should maybe take a slightly lower level job than cuse first, but so should Gmac and we all know how that might end, but what he has done at Merrimack with pretty low assets and expectations even for that level is impressive.

I’m not sure who needs to hear this or where I need to direct this comment at but…

Go. Kick. Rocks. You. Goober.

 

[PoppyHart]

I’ve heard his name is in the ring at Butler

Another program that’s never gone with an outside hire.

This thread is amazing.

Can it get to 500 pages before noon on 3/19?

I just read the last 50 pages and my eyes are bleeding. Never have I been more proud of this community.

Now let's get a damn coach already and get a roster. Whether we have $1 or $100M towards NIL, I think we'll have a basketball team next year. And unless we hire a cardboard box, we'll have a better coach.

Who that is yet? Who knows. But wise men on this board have said not to worry about things you can't control. So I'll do that.

All that being said - everyone on this board was ready to flip out about 25 years ago when Julius Hodge committed to NC State. We dodged a bullet there and got the perfect piece of the puzzle, and we could have dodged a similar bullet for a perfect puzzle piece with Hodgson too.

 

[Hawknate144]

Provided it's not Mike Hopkins I won't complain to much.

Provided it's not Chris Beard I will still support the team.

 

[ssbriefcase]

Almost down to the minute of my prediciton. Caught up at midnight my time. My bed time is 10pm! Now to wake up to another 40 pages tomorrow

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

Did some yoga, made a delicious dinner, had a bourbon or two, watched Shrinking with my wife, took an edible, ate some chocolate and came back to like 25 pages. Oh what a night.

 

[azbobbop]

Where did everyone go?

Only 11:15 in Arizona.

 

[Sherman20]

Holy meltdown. Maybe it isn’t game of thrones donor edition and the new AD wants to go in a different direction? Or evaluate some other candidates.

Hodgson is the perfect fit and one of the top 2-3 candidates this offseason. Some of us who pay attention to this stuff and study the analytics, in fact, wanted him last year.

 

[granthath9]

Up late thinking about how big of a disaster this actually is

Late December back in sixty threeeeeeeeee

I don’t discount that some on this board may have insider information , but for FWIW, I remind us that collectively as a board we once went down a road with the football hire that ultimately proved to be a dead end—only to later realize the ultimate road was one many of us didn’t even knew existed by name at the time

 

[pokercuse08]

You're all just missing the long term vision in a Hopkins hire. He can recruit, so we'll probably put 5-10 guys in the NBA over the next five years while going .500 or a little under.

Those guys make bank in the NBA, and they're the NIL donors of the 2040s. By the time they're ready to donate we should have worked our way through Coach McNamara, Coach Devo, and Coach Onuaku... Then we'll finally be ready to go outside the family just as the NIL starts rolling in.

 

[Sherman20]

This ^

Again it bears repeating. SU is out laying the max amount internally (20.5 mill) and has multiple NIL donors on top of that for fball bball and lax. What they dont have and people keep missing this is is tens of million additional in outside NIL collective that gets you to 10+ Mill+ for bball payouts on top of what they ar doing for fball.

Theres also no way for that to appear with the flick of a wrist or a phone call by the University.

How they were not prepared for this is beyond me. Everyone here knew that Red would probably fail this year and we would have to hire a new coach. If I was a betting man, I would’ve taken that bet while trying to remain optimistic about Red. They certainly knew two months ago.

 

[Orangefan1]

Thought it was a bad dream yesterday….now it’s time to go to sleep again

 

[Sherman20]

All I will say is expect more drama. Perhaps a lot more.

Im exhausted and feel done with following SU basketball as my favorite sports team.

 

[VikesCuse84]

Hate to say it but we aren’t getting any coach worth a damn if the NIL situation is as bad as it sounds. It’s an absolute shame this program has fallen to the depths it has. Do we really have the donor base to compete in both football and basketball in this NIL era? It certainly doesn’t seem like it.

 

[VikesCuse84]

And people want Holloway?

I’d be happy with Holloway now, but why would he come here his main gripe at seton hall is their NIL can’t imagine ours is much better certainly not enough to make him leave his alma mater
