Hodg GameDay: AAC Championship USF v. Wichita St, 3:15pm ESPN

[hoopsupstate]

The only current SU players who could play this way are White, Kingz and Kyle.

Keeping White and Kingz would be huge.

 

[007]

Our luck he will go to the final four and unc will can Hubert to get him.

It's not like you to worry about stuff that probably won't happen.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I’m very encouraged that South Florida has also been able to slow it down and play more methodical. I was a little concerned that they could only play race horse basketball.

 

[DaCuse]

I agree. I think we're putting the cart away before the horse in assuming he will come to Syracuse when there are going to be so many other better jobs open.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I know Enis is known as a good three point shooter, but his defensive intensity and toughness is what makes him special.

What other jobs will be opening? It's all ncaa tournament teams left.

Must get with BH

 

[Orangezoo]

The NCAAT will be tough when they go up against teams with size/skilled bigs. I'd be thrilled to see them go on a long run.

They have shot makers, rebound well and play a style not easy to prepare for so they have a good shot to get a win or two.

 

[OrangeTarheel]

I agree. I think we're putting the cart away before the horse in assuming he will come to Syracuse when there are going to be so many other better jobs open.

That’s the exact opposite of what almost every major sports platform has said about this off season

 

[Biaxtar]

There should be no excuses now from anyone at Syracuse. This is the guy you need. Make it happen.

 

[Orangezoo]

I agree. I think we're putting the cart away before the horse in assuming he will come to Syracuse when there are going to be so many other better jobs open.

I suspect, at odds as they may be- that the pressure to work together ramps up the more BH keeps winning because this is a chance at getting lightning in a bottle and missing it would be massive.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I’m trying to think who was SU’s last player that has Enis’s defensive dog mentality?

 

[llandz]

So here is the plan. While S. Fl. is making it through the 2nd game in the NCAAT, Wildhack, Haynie, and Blair will get the parties into a room in Syracuse, lock the door and hash it all out until they all agree that Hodgson is the right choice, and then they will fix the football problems also. S. Fl. will lose the 2nd game, because we will then be ready to get him to sign on the dotted line. Even better is he is in a region that is close to Syracuse so he can get to town quickly.

 

[Cusefan0307]

For anyone concerned that he could only win with elite offense today should end that discussion.

 

[llandz]

Ice Enis.

 

[Jake]

Me too. Enis doesn’t seem to have a low gear.

 

[llandz]

That is a team leader there. Something also that we have been missing.

 

[Jake]

For anyone concerned that he could only win with elite offense today should end that discussion.

I’ve consistently been more impressed with their defensive intensity more than anything.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

For anyone concerned that he could only win with elite offense today should end that discussion.

Look, anyone that's not on board the BH train is just making up reasons at this point.

And that was true before we knew the likely end of this game.

It just makes sense for everyone.

 

[Cuseregular]

Man just love the way BH coaches and roams the sidelines doing it. Totally engaged

 

[llandz]

Lots of hugs from Hodgson. Did Red ever have a hugging relationship with any player?

 

[ChrisIsCitrus]

I would've wanted Hodgson regardless of this outcome. At the very least, this win negates the argument that GMac made the tourney and Hodgson hasn't, therefore he's a better hire. That viewpoint obviously lacks nuance, as judging competence entirely on the success of a single elimination tournament is silly, though I guarantee you many people would've tried to make that exact point.

 

[llandz]

You mean a hug is all our players needed to hit their free throws?

 

[tptcuse]

Good to see you come around, man.
