Message: [QUOTE="miamicuse, post: 4152105, member: 7237"] One other point about a "continuity hire", is whether a new continuity HC will be able to flex their muscles with JB's influence. MH himself said during an interview about his UW opportunity was something that allows him to build something uniquely his, and had he stay at Syracuse, his job would be a protector and caretaker of JB's legacy. I don't think we would want someone coaching with the "what would JB do?" mindset. I think if an assistant gets the job it's important for JB to step away to give whoever succeeds him plenty of room to operate. That's why this transition is going to be so challenging and someone like Rick Pitino to come back for 2-3 years is a great way to do it. [/QUOTE]
