Message: [QUOTE="Starman, post: 5693643, member: 10484"] I've read so much stuff on this website that I can't remember where the rumors end and my own speculation starts. With that qualifier out of the way, I'd imagine that outside of what comes from Melo himself (and maybe a few more), all of the money that would be given to Hop goes away with another hire. Hopkins is a likeable guy with connections to NBA talent. I would hazard a guess that a lot of those guys are pitching in a little bit because they like Hopkins. If that's the case, they couldn't care less about Syracuse. I'll reiterate that those thoughts are pure speculation. But I believe the logic is sound, at least. That said, Hopkins is still a clear second place choice for me, even with the money. Maybe even lower, depending on who's actually interested in the job. [/QUOTE]
