The next assistant is a big hire

[gilardino]

yes its been on other threads, but comrades we truly need to hit a homerun here. this can't be lets promote, have to get a big fish, think outside the box. Have the new assistant and Red work it. Give me some legit names here.

 

[Toga]

Gary Decesare. I kid.

 

[KaiserUEO]

im not good at this stuff, but the other day I mentioned Barry Rohrssen...and got crickets.

thought id at least get a No Fn way!

whats his deal?

 

[gilardino]

need someone who has the connections, someone shady like Orlando Antigua

Agreed. Only way to overcome the inevitable negative recruiting.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Boeheims comments are not reassuring to me in the least

 

[Toga]

I didn't watch the PC. Did he talk about himself hitting recruiting hard?

 

[cuseinseattle]

I didn't watch the PC. Did he talk about himself hitting recruiting hard?

He talked about how the new assistant needs to know how to coach and recruit and that coaching might be more important. We already have two good recruiters. (His words not my opinion)

Oh yeah - HARD.

SMH. SMH really hard. SMH like I'm really pissed.

 

[EastCoast2]

I hear John Calipari has some connections.

 

[Grbac]

Rob Lanier
Assistant to Rick Barnes at Tennessee.

Native of New York. St Bonnies alum. Former HC at Siena.
Really good recruiter.

Been with Rick Barnes for a while. But coming back home may be incentive.

 

[Briancuse]

Give me the guy who can bring recruits in, I don't care if he is an Su guy or not, I don't care if he has some baggage, we need players now.

i think many of you are setting yourselves up for big letdown

When is the last time SU pleasantly surprised us when they've had to make a big decision?

We could use some good news soon.

What's Preston shumpert up to these days?

How big could he be? With Red and GMac moving up, there's only room for a lower level up and comer, but I don't think anyone should expect a real big fish be landed. You already have an Assoc. head coach, just need a body to fill out the staff now. I suspect it to be more of the same, a loyal Orange soldier given a chance to prove themselves, nothing more.

Probably looking after Deshaun Williams kid. The 2002 season was a trip.

Boeheim got an extension. Didn't you hear?

 

[skurey]

I think Syracuse is setting us up for a big letdown

 

[AZOrange]

Allen Griffin sound familiar? I'd raise preflop on that hand.

Wildhack? Babers? Syverud?

 

[cusefan88]

Bruiser Flint! Philly guy, former asst at UMass with Cal.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Wildhack? Babers? Syverud?

Wildhack and Kent are way too early to tell. Jury is out. And Babers wasn't SU's first choice. They backed into him.
