Message: [QUOTE="SaveSUHoops, post: 5690041, member: 10892"] Curry Hicks Sage discussed Syracuse on his latest Spaces tonight. Not the biggest fan of the guy, but he does have good sources. Mike Waters was listening in the session but didn't say anything. A rundown of the most important takes: - Source told him that SU will make an AD hire in "72 hours". Norlander wrote the hire will come before March 10th. - Lyke was never likely to get the AD job, even before tonight's news. Wondered how she was even hired at Syracuse in the first place (That makes all of us). - The money is there to fire Autry, but conversations with new HC candidates are not underway like they are for other imminently open jobs, like Providence. - It could be worth it for SU to overpay for Schertz given the "lack of sure fire candidates" in this search. - Hodgson is "really good", "a young, upstate NY guy who would love to be at Syracuse", "viable candidate" for the job. Could bring a lot of excitement, especially if he gets hot in the tournament. - Brought up Matt Langel (YAWN). - Hopkins is "awesome" but can't overlook his bad record at UW. "Had a little bit of success but didn't really get it done". - Seemed that he didn't know much about the Melo/Hopkins rumors, but did say that the new AD can't let Melo have too much input in the HC search just because he is Melo. - Said that Lally is "involved" in basketball, which contradicts what some have said on here. Wondered if the new coach can end the "drama" that exists between him and Weitsman. Getting the two potential biggest donors for the program aligned in one direction would help any program, but Syracuse isn't the only place dealing with that type of infighting. [/QUOTE]
