Message: [QUOTE="nyucuse, post: 5672101, member: 317"] I have to think there is an element of ego and face saving on their parts, for not being the perceived top choice. A guy like Hop for example, who is uber- personable, and a natural born salesman / fund raiser, there is no way he wouldn't feel he could drum up financial support for a resurgent hoops program. And Gerry - he's doing a solid but unspectacular job in the freakin MAAC. When is the last time a coach jumped from that league to the big leagues? Let alone to a historically top tier program of which one is an alum. Doesn't happen. While I don't doubt Dash or Jake's intel, I suspect there is more to the story than the initial headline. [/QUOTE]
