Coaches Portal

[61 Silver]

With all the players that Syracuse is currently loosing to the portal, we have yet to see one coach on the current staff held accountable for the disappointing season. I believe that the four coaches currently on staff were all guards when they played college basketball. I would like to see a coach for the bigs that has experience and success at that positions, a coach for the guards and small forwards and a proven defense coach. With the current high cost for top tear portal players, the improvement of first year players and portal players that are not in the top tear is a must to be a successful program!
Go Orange!

Well apparently Red and Griff are best friends. Straughn is a recruiting guy that brought us 2 top 10 guys in two consecutive cycles and Engelstad was just brought on last year and it sounds like we’re too cheap to eat a buyout.

Not to mention we have 2 non recruiting coaching positions open for the past 2 years and no whiff of a hiring.

So ya, I don’t have great confidence any significant changes are coming.

Any updates on this? Are we locked in to this full coaching staff going into next season?

I was wondering the same thing today. It's crazy if we don't hire more coaches. And sorry if this is repetitive, but can we do something about strength and conditioning?

Could this be something? Presutti worked under Murph at EMU, Buzz Williams at Marquette, Jeff Capel at Pitt and spent the last two seasons as Associate HC at Buffalo. Maybe he's on an HC track but maybe not?

I am going to bump this and hope that someone has some info here. It seems very quiet regarding whether we will add coaches and I haven't seen any media even asking the question. It seems to me it is a no-brainer that we need to add more, especially given what we lost when GMac moved on.
