Coach Search Options after Autry

Btw Hodgson did not get the job, he DID NOT turn it down. I have this from one of the most legit and reputable sources in the game. Not sure if it’s Gerry or someone else, but this is the agent spinning it that he turned it down.

This makes sense to me.

Because it would make ZERO sense for the Hodgson camp to put out a press release through a mouthpiece like Goodman a day and a half before his team plays an important NCAAT game.

But from a PR perspective, it DOES make sense for his camp to get out in front of a story where Syracuse is choosing someone else over him. You preempt that by putting info out there that you turned them down first, you didn't get turned down. PR 101 spin.
 
It's 7:00 AM.

How many of you are still "done for good" because BH didn't get the job?

How many of you are drama queens who will be back if you like the next coach?

If you're done, would you mind posting your seat locations? I'm sure the fans who still support the team would hate to see those empty seats go to waste every game.
My family was in 113 since the Dome opened. Lost a few rows in the renovation, cancelled last season. Have at ‘em.
 
Still not sure who it’s going to be. Went to bed last night thinking it was Hop. Now Thinking it could also be Gerry.

Either way, it’s heavily heavily leaning in-house.
And there goes my optimism.
 
But the vibes and memories. Remeniscing is the best way to guarantee success moving forward!

We're like the townie that's in his 40s still bragging about going to the prom with the cheerleader in high school.

Hoping for a surprise on the HC front from where we are now.

That's where I'm at -- I'm hoping that the new AD pulls some high potential candidate out of left field that isn't on our "list."

I'm afraid of where this is headed now.
 
Same, Clarkson because of engineering. And the athletics up in Potsdam, New York just don’t compare.

In hindsight I do wish I applied to some top tier academic schools just to see. Certainly had the grades.

But again… watching high level sports is a great thing when they aren’t the opposite.
You and rrlbees classmates?
 
If this prediction ^^^ comes to pass, it would certainly explain why our offer didn't stack up with an alternative from the $EC.

It would at least provide a logical reason on the Hodg pass that isn't madness, incompetence, or a bag of buttons for NIL... and maybe provide hope that we have other qualified candidates we are working down the list.

Did you not go to, or watch any games this year? Where were all "the fans who still support the team (who) would hate to see those empty seats go to waste every game."?
 
This isn’t punishment - this is a very real scenario in terms of the lack of grace that will be provided to an in house hire.

Whomever the next HC is will be crucified if they don't succeed. Posts like the above are pre-emptive strikes.

I'm cautiously hopeful there is a surprise candidate better than .660 career dude that somehow has everyone mystified & really has had a cancerous effect on posts here.

But, if not, I would hope for a GMac or Schertz or Murray. And, if its GMac, I would expect him to approach the job w the same gusto & stones he's brought his entire career.

If its Hop though, I don't know. Seems past his time, but who knows?

Either way, I'll be rooting for the next HCs success.
