Would you take Mike Hopkins as next coach?

[orangepassion]

No on Hopkins.

At this point I don’t want anyone that’s even met JB before - never mind coaching under him.

Alright. I am removing my name from consideration.

 

[dasher]

I think some people have decided they don't like him, and there's no basketball reason, so...

That simply isn't true. Some people have a different standard than you do. Doesn't make them or you right or wrong. But it isn't for some imaginary reason. I think he was out of line.

I think you couldn't do any worse of a job tonight.

Oddly defensive response. I haven't gotten that impression from you, but I have from other posters.

Scooch made a comment that sounded like there may be a different version of these events. He should hold himself to a higher standard, but unless Hodgson vindictively sought out young Autry after the game and was like na na daddy is about to get fired it's a complete non-issue.

In your opinion it's a non issue. And there was nothing defensive about my remark. You missed the boat there. Simply I hold Coaches or adults to a higher standard than you do. Now, I did say I would hire him. After making sure that this wasn't his typical behavior.

This is getting weird. I was just asking for a follow up after seeing there might be multiple versions of this story. I have refused to defend what Hodgson (supposedly) did and have called it out (if true) as inappropriate.

You seem to just be pissy that I'm not automatically taking your story as gospel and condemning Hodgson.

Oh, God no. I couldn't begin to care if you took my side of it.

Seems like you're pushing it pretty hard for not actually caring.

Care about you. I mean no offense by this but I couldn't care what you think about just about anything. I was offering my opinion on a message board. You seem to have a different opinion. That is a okay with me.

That's the thing--- I was just asking about the story for cripes sake! You took it in a totally different direction and started insulting my "standards".

I wasn't insulting your standards. I said that they were different than mine. And by higher I mean exactly that. I don't go for a coach talking crap to a player about anything. Especially his dad. You are clearly not as bothered by that.

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

Yeah- how so?

Don't get stabby and then try to mince words. At least have the dignity to stand your ground.

How's this. I never knew what a jerk you are. There is more. You are so far beneath me it isn't funny. I come here to enjoy myself. Not to deal with asshats like you. You are on ignore.

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

You should just lead with that whenever someone doesn't agree with every exact word you say; it's usually where you end up. Could save yourself some carpel tunnel.

Kind of being a dashhole tonight. Took too many grumpy old man pills or something.

well, if was any of your business, he was just a jerk that wouldn't stop being a jerk. If it was any of your business. What did you write to him since you are sharing your wisdom?

Not directed at you dash, just made me think of this

I actually don’t think he was. You’re being a child,

 

[emjkay]

Not a JB fan,,, still needs to be written. When Mike Hopkins took job at Washington ,JB was quick to announce all bets were off. He earned the right to stay on to coach his sons. That doesn't get him off the hook for how his stubbornness took this program down to it's current level. WE NEED TO MOVE ON FROM THAT COACHING TREE!
