Who says he can't?I was kinda hoping JB'd be able to keep coaching until Buddy is able to take over, after his NBA career & a few seasons as an assistant...
Feel bad for Hop, has his son Griff on the roster now.
I remember when folks were pissed when he started grabbing guys SU normally lands, Ham Wright, Nate Roberts, Stewart, Quade transfer. All recruits on the east coast. It sounds like he never established his connections out West and now the well back East has dried up. I don't see him turning it around there, it will depend on how long they can tolerate the losing at UW.
Tour not talking about hoo's are you? He is my favorite non-Syracuse poster. Very knowledgeable
Washington’s record went downhill when they switched from Nike to Adidas. Hop can’t be blamed for that!

What’s the point ?Another ugly loss for Hop and UW.
He is likely headed for back to back last place finishes. And before people chime in about how awful UW has always been, they’ve never finished last place back to back in...well I can’t tell you because I’d have to go back a long time. Romar never did it.
What’s the point ?
Go to coach’s former team fan board to tell everyone he’s bad? You want us to console you?That he is a bad coach right now.
You don’t like Hopkins.
We get it.
My god why are you posting here on Hopkins.
Go to the Washington board and bitch about him.
You don’t create debate you want to troll and cause @itchfests back and forth.
Hopkins team sucked last year, it sucks this year. We get it.
Go and encourage your AD to do something instead of trolling us.
What is the stuff on Twitter about how he left a s e xual predator on the team or something
what is that about
You might not but if Hop has multiple losing seasons and then comes here to be HC, most would have significant reservations. And rightfully so. What top program brings in a losing coach (who NEVER had a losing season) to take over from a legend? Would like you to name one. It would be viewed as a massive fail by the AD.

Believe he actually tossed him off the team
After a couple really good seasons at UW, it’s been all downhill for Hop at UW.
The team bottomed out last season with two first round picks. Also lost his starting PG to academic ineligibility.
He completely missed on some big time local recruits. Guys Romar likely would have brought in. Beachamp, Hickman, Banchero, and Nowell all chose to play elsewhere.
The latest blunder is his top returning scorer, Naz Carter, is ineligible for violating NCAA rules.
UW is picked to finish near last next season. The seat is getting hot. I think if UW struggles again, with no incoming recruits, UW could move on.
FWIW, I was really excited about Hop, and was a big Hop believer. I really hope it works out for him at UW, but with how it’s trending I don’t think he will be here much longer.
