It'll be a fluid situation.
On one hand, it looks like he'll either be assuming control after this season or next. It'll likely be after JB's worst season, whether that's this year's team or next. He's going to be in the middle of the worst stretch in SU basketball in 40+ years. It'll be tough for any coach to take over what could be a true mess if we don't get recruiting turned around. But part of that will be on him (recruiting), so he's already going to be behind the 8ball. On the other hand, we really don't know the exacts going on behind the scenes and maybe Hop isn't part of the problem. I don't know.
I think if he were an outsider, he would get 3 years to turn it around. As the home grown, hand picked successor, I would assume he gets a little more leeway. But maybe he gets even less? Who knows?!?
I just want to see him switch things up, play multiple defenses, run a modern offense with more movement and more up tempo, and show he is a capable in-game coach. I think recruiting has to pick up and I doubt he'll be as restrictive as JB in terms of player types and recruiting location.
