Siena Basketball: GMAC / Blackwell / AO

We just had a board insider (I forgot who) pretty much claim GMac is a jerk and all about Gerry about a week ago. Is this well known?
It has been discussed at various times that Gerry love him some Gerry, and that it perhaps has led him to be less close to some in the AD at times.
 
Yeah, except….

Choosing the much younger, less experienced white guy,
Over the far more experienced black guy, who also had experience outside the Syracuse program,
and who had the title of AHC -
would’ve been a TURRIBLE look.

Red is objectively a better recruiter than Gerry.
GMac whiffed on the overwhelming majority of high profile croots he was the lead on.

Gerry’s “success” at Siena means nearly nothing.

He seems to be a better gameday coach, but that’s only because Red is the worst at that.

Bottom line: we should have NEVER gone with a continuity hire from JAB’s decayed coaching tree,
because the absolute last thing that needed to be done in that instance was ‘continue’ anything or anyone who had been a part of the prior decade of decline.
This whole black and white crap is an excuse. We are talking about Syracuse university not liberty or some southern racist school. Everyone needs to stop looking at black and white and hire the best coach possible.

It must be very comforting to be so naive.
Bless your heart.

And as I posted up thread, the best coach possible was NEITHER of them.

Syracuse is Sofa King Stoopid to artificially constrain the pool of coaching candidates to:
Once played and/or coached at Cuse under JAB.

I agree with your last point 144%.
As I have posted numerous times prior:

Full National search
Best head coach possible.
Pay that man his money.
