Coach Search Options after Autry

[phil77]

Yeah, what other choice would we have besides the volcano throw?

Well, to be fair, that seems like the next logical step. No Hodgson ---> GMac/Hopkins ----> jump into a volcano

 

[ElwoodJBlues]

Chris Mack? Yuck. He’s at a job now that has more NIL $ than probably all of the other schools in their conference combined and can’t get it done.

 

[Fly Rodder]

That isn't sloppy seconds from Louisville; he didn't get let go because of coaching. He got let go because the AD had internal problems, and he was collateral damage.

Yeah, I'm sure he wants to step into a situation that is even worse than Louisville.

 

[BigNastyJon]

Without getting too off tangent. I’m familiar with most of the inside jokes here because I am a degenerate that checks this board way too frequently. However, the Marriott stuff is way over my head, what did I miss?

What’s your marital status?

 

[chadvader]

You watched 1 game. He shot 52% for the season.

Yup. Also, in the game where he couldn't make a layup he played 36 minutes and walled up the MAAC POY who went from 16 free throw attempts against Siena in February to 2 in March.

I’d be 1000x happier with either John Groce (Akron), Travis Steele (Miami OH) or Flynn Clayman (High Point) than any GMac or Hop.

Groce and Steele have all coached at the top level and worked under hall of famers in their own right.

All three of these guys run fast high scoring offenses.

akron has made the last 3 tourneys. i would very happy with him.

 

[Franz69]

If he's not in the mix, he could just say I'm not a candidate.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Doty isn’t a PG and Mulvey is in his final year. Folefac would be a guy worth monitoring though.

Neither was silent g. Im not even joking, i’d love to see him work and become a combo at cuse

Yup terrible overall winning percentage of .679 - 9 NCAA tournament appearances would have been 10 OR 11 without Covid . Had his team in Louisville ranked #1.


I would pass that up for coaches who only made 1 tournament and have winning percentages barely over 500.

Different kind of problems LOL

It's intriguing as I get the impression that insiders here may even be more out of the loop than the AD search that turned out unexpected. Not to knock the insiders, I appreciate the info of what you know, the sources likely just aren't getting the info quality they used to get or things are changing really fast. You have to see the results, but the fact that the cards are being kept close to the chest you can argue is a sign of more competent leadership.

I predict this thread will set the all time Syracusefan.com record for most posts because I think we’re still 10+- days away from an announcement. This could hit 1k pages.

This prediction from last Friday seems to be holding.

Hodgson is going to reup with USF and then take the next good SEC job. I think we knew that and eliminated him but his agent got the word out for his spin.

I still think it is going to be someone not affiliated with the program.

I’ve heard that. Keep an eye on the Florida job.

wow that is A WILD turn of events in each paragraph.

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Why do people keep bringing up Hop? Does anyone think that he'd really be the pick? Is this just a "it would be typical of SU to choose Hop" point of view?

 

[cuse62]

Every town has its ups and downs
Sometimes the ups out number the downs
But not in Syracuse
I’m inclined to believe
If we weren’t so far down
We up and leave

He apparently has the backing of the basketball alums.

 

[sufan59]

He's a southern man now

 

[OrlandoCuse]

I’ve heard that. Keep an eye on the Florida job.

Golden won the NC last year and has the Gators on a consistent elite level. Not sure he’s going anywhere anytime soon unless he goes to the NBA or UK throws bags of money at him.

I thought the vaunted Etan and Devo podcast was all in on Gerry?

With nba expansion I see Golden making the leap very soon

Rumor is Kansas is interested if Self retires.

Jayhawks will sniff around.
