Hodgson has some positives but I have said before he will not be the best on the market but he will have things that make him attractive for Syracuse...

-He has already turned around two programs in a short amount of time
-USF was 13-19 last season and 14-8 already this season
-Won a regular-season conference championship, Arkansas State
-He is a passionate and loud coach  (not for everyone here, clearly but is a change of pace needed or not TBD)
-Read that he improved USF NIL considerably (hope would be he can do the same here)
-He is a high-level, proven recruiter
-He is from the area
-He wants to coach here
-He plays a super-fast-paced offense
-USF currently top 10 scoring offense in college basketball
-He has a connection to one of Syracuse top donors who currently doesnt give to the basketball program
-Asst and lead recruiter under Oats 
-Donnie lead recruiter at 'Bama (could matter probably not)

There are negatives as well

-Short track record
-Never made the tournament
-Passionate/Loud/Emotional  -  Some like and some dont   So this is positive and negative (not going to over the comment as it lands here)
-In his fast pace system some nights look awful as it is 3s and dunks and if 3s aren't falling blah but usually it evens out and has to if they average 90 a game
-Playing at that pace we are going to give up a ton of points so people who like defense wont like him
