Would you take Mike Hopkins as next coach?

[gilardino]

Curious what everyone thinks. And go!!!!!

 

[MikeSU02]

All due respect to Hop, this hire has to be someone that has no connection to JB. And a better track record as an HC.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Lmao

 

[gilardino]

Going to be honest, he will get an intervioew. So prepare yourself

 

[Cuse_NYC]

would absolutely love him back on staff, but not as HC

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Nope. Been out of the area too long to maintain recruiting lines, and no idea how he’d do with NIL and the portal.

 

[Cuseroc]

Absolutely Not!

 

[Irishsecra1]

I would take him as interim coach till the end of the year.
Need to get Red out of here.

Could certainly be part of the interview mix for the full time coach depending on how things went as interim.

Seven years at Washington with a 1-1 record in the NCAAT. Wildhack needs to do better. I wonder if Hop likes being in the NBA, on the staff of the Pelicans. Seems like a good spot for him.

 

[dasher]

Of course not.

Awesome post!

I hear the hiking is good in New Orleans

Not sure I'd ever watch another game if the admin deemed this to be the best choice.

 

[Ozone!]

Nothing against Mike Hopkins, but, I believe it’s time to move on from Cuse alumni and do a national search!

 

[Newhouser]

Only if Rob Murphy says no.

I've never been there but JAB has fond memories.

Only hills in NO are the bridges.

Since you noted that you are going to be honest, I guess we have to believe you. Thanks for not lying.

 

[Fly Rodder]

Sheesh, who else can they look at off the scrap heap? Bernie Fine? Q Hillsman?

 

[23Zone]

OMG NO

 

[cusefan88]

Why is there an addiction to finding someone who went to or coached at SU? It's time to go far away from that and establish a new identity.

 

[RF2044]

Why on earth would we hire Hop? What evaluative criteria would justify that?

Beyond "former ties to the program?"

He bombed at UW. That was his audition, and it went extremely poorly -- which should disqualify him.

 

[DilemaCuse]

Nope. Been out of the area too long to maintain recruiting lines, and no idea how he’d do with NIL and the portal.

Those philly connections probably dried up 8 years ago at least.

He would basically be starting all over from scratch now. He's well liked but failed with Stewart and Daniels at UW.

 

[phil77]

No

Orange Nation radio show was talking about this possibility so buckle up unless insiders want to interject and set the record straight
