With technology today, it seems easy to wire up Hop and JB so that Jim could effectively coach from the comfort of his living room during the suspension. He will have the benefit of instant replay too. Wait a minute, we fans already do that now.
 
That would exhibit a complete lack of confidence in Hop and be a terrible move IMO. I wouldn't be surprised to see JB in the stands, however, as John Thompson often does.
 
It won't happen and JB won't b at the dome during games. In fact he's not allowed at the melo center either during the suspension...
 
I'm very excited to see what Hopkins does. His enthusiasm and energy level are great and I wonder what he'll be like as the main man. Will he be as fiery and still try to pump guys up, or will he have a more reserved approach and have to take on more of the "bad cop" role? I wish it were under better circumstances, but still excited for him.
 
Only during post game press conferences. Pssst ... Mike - tell Donna she sucks at her job.
 
Wait, the original post wasn't a joke?
Actually I'm dead serious. Depending upon the exact language of the suspension, unless electronic communication is expressly prohibited, we're good to go!
 
they should have hopkins coach some pre conference games as well. It would be short sighted to just throw him to the wolves right as conference play begins without some real game experience against lesser competition.
 
This reminds me of the Cheers episode where Sam was playing Robin Colcord in chess and he was wired so Norm could tell him what moves to make. Yes - Sam got caught. I'm sure it would turn out equally well if we tried it. No offense - but this idea is ridiculous.
 
How the heck do they keep picking apart the zone? Juli, get Lester Freamon on the rotary phone immediately!

He will not be allowed to have any communications with Hop during, before, after inbetween games. He will be banned from campus, and all activities relating to the team. In other words, go someplace warm and play some golf.
 
I just read the report. Page 66 defines the suspension. What a croc. Jim got messed.
