Agreed. SU knows Gerry’s coaching

And he can’t be the best candidate for the job?

If we do, is there enough money for them that will be confirmed in basically just a couple weeks? We need money and a coach. Ideally non family hire and money is the goal. The best family hire with the most money may be where we have to end up. In this world not sure we can survive or hope to survive without the money especially if we are having to beg just to get what we had last year.

That’s always a matter of judgment, hence the problem in choosing.

One game doesnt make you the best candidate although he put a serious notch in his belt today
He has done a great job at Siena, but his track record just doesn't stack up against the other candidates yet in my opinion.
That's a pretty limited candidate pool, my friend.
But it sounds like you are sold, so that's great.I am not sold but Gerry has qualifications that make him a good candidate .That's a pretty limited candidate pool, my friend.

If Martinelli Jr just understood modern offense, analytics and how to run offensive “Sets” he would be up 20 on UNC at halftime. He’s off my list! Can’t coach a modern offense!
I agree, he should be considered and get an interview.

GMAC is getting the job. Done. They can’t miss out on what could be a grand slam. If it doesn’t work out, you pick up the pieces but come on!

Did GMAC really play only 5 guys 40 mins each against Duke (what the box shows)? Never seen that before. What a gutsy performance by the starters. No bench help?
Who are the other candidates you think have a better track record?
3 key players (one starter) were out. Not much on the bench so roll with the best players

Quite honestly, I'm just ready for a change. I don't think GMAC's history at SU should eliminate him from consideration, but I would prefer to move past nostalgia. I'm sure GMAC is a good coach, but SU is a high-level job and we should get the best coach available regardless of where they went to school.

If we hire GMac and it doesn’t work out - I don’t think there are any pieces to pick up. Turn out the lights, the party is over - Syracuse basketball is officially as relevant as DePaul.

Not sure I like his “sets” that you covet so much. Love to know what you feel an actual “set” is, never mind I don’t actually care

He played a 6th guy but not long enough for it to round up to a minute.
