Give it a shot.

Less words though

There’s gonna be more of this as the season wears on, especially with Omicron coming. : (

Washington just forfeited to UCLA because of COVID-19. Is this the final straw for Hop? Could he have done something? Tighter reins on his players? More emphatic about following protocols? Probably not, but forfeiting a game is bad look.

He could have developed a more robust vaccine and rolled out a comprehensive plan to get everyone on Earth vaccinated.

Man; if Mike didn't have bad luck, he would have no luck.

Hopefully this doesn't comes down on Hop but giving away free wins is never a good thing. He needs a good plan.

Not on him. 3 of the 4 teams that played in the tourney in SD have Covid cases.

According to this it's not an official loss.

I'm wondering what rules U Dub has in place campus-wide.

Ugghh

 

[hoopsupstate]

How many players were missing due to Covid?

Is he going to last the season?

 

[sutomcat]

Can't even imagine how Mike is handling this and holding up. What a nightmare.

My heart goes out to him.

I don't think there's anything anyone can do to stop the spread of omicron. The good news is that everyone I know who has it has a minor cold.

I feel for him and want him to succeed...but this is also the program he has "built" in year five.

Crazy Season. UnderArmour Curry strikes again.

Yes…..but not much longer IMHo

I still say he’s the best option (among the realistic options) to replace Boeheim. He is undoubtedly learning a lot through this experience at UW, things our other candidates will have to learn while at the helm of our own ship.

In terms of recruiting and player retention, yes. What else does he bring to the table, though?

good recruiter but does he know how to actually coach?

Nah, he’s clearly a bad coach who can’t build a program. I can’t imagine how the alumni and boosters would react if you bring in a guy who had 3-4 straight losing seasons to replace a coach who has never even had 1. He’s an assistant and recruiting lead at best. Syracuse needs to look outside the family for the next hire.
