Yes or no our next HC is on the bench now

[Alsacs]

A name to consider is Wojo at Marquette. He has done a good job with that program. He also has a lot of contacts on the East coast And is respected. Just a thought.

No interest in him. He took 4 years to make the tournament and hasn’t won a game in the NCAAT.

If all that matters is location Miami, Florida International, USC, UCLA, San Diego State, College of Charleston would be the best teams every year.
Location matters for kids families go to games.
The weather of the school has no bearing on recruits.
Michigan, Wisconsin do fine. Their locations suck.

You ever been to Madison or Ann Arbor? They don't suck.

That’s all in fine when you announce it but at least give the A.D. some notice so we can try to find a replacement, a suitable replacement.

If the AD doesn't currently have a short list that he is updating daily based on current events he should be fired.

I mean if Syracuse sucks so bad why do so many metro DC/NY and Boston kids come here?

Also the city is in better shape than it has been in 20 years since I moved here.

 

[Cusefan0307]

One thing is for certain is the locals split on Syracuse/upstate more than outsiders and it’s been that way forever. People I know from outside of Syracuse tend to have better opinions than the locals.

 

[HOFCeluck]

And when was the last time we saw a player get better at SU?

This year. Literally this year.

What could go wrong?

 

[Cusesky8214]

That's when u know things are bad when DC who has been a big time JB supporter is publicly saying he would coach Syracuse while tagging them in the post. Must not like what hes seeing?

Maybe he means just what he says, he'd love to come back and coach in some aspect? He probably doesn't like what he's seeing like most, but thinks he can help?

Strength and toughness coach would be a great place to start.

Not a knock on Syracuse. I love it there. But you said Ann Arbor and Madison sucked, which they definitely do not.

That was not me.

DC knows how to rebound!

 

[jncuse]

Throw the bank at Matt Painter... Randy Bennett would at least bring a good scheme and Xs/Os. Give him money to hire a big time recruiter and I think he would do well at Cuse. Outside the box hire would be Tommie Lloyd from Gonzaga. Big time recruiter overseas. Long shots are Buzz, Few, etc. Honestly, looking more at it, its tough to even say. Not a ton of great possible candidates. But a change ABSOLUTELY needs to be made after this year.

Matt Painter has led Purdue to a #2, #3, #4, and a #5 seed the last 4 years, and has made the sweet 16 three years in a row, and one elite eight. The program is running very smoothly.

He is from Purdue,
11 tournaments the last 15 years.
He is getting paid $3 million, with a likely healthy extension coming soon,

Why the heck would he come to Syracuse?

 

[JoeySimz]

Yeh Mario, that’s some proof right there. Bold statement.

 

[miamicuse]

Are you all suggesting an exit similar to FSU & Bobby Bowden? They had Jimbo Fisher "in waiting" we have no one.

Exactly. He played and coached for Purdue, just like Hop, before becoming head coach. I wonder if Hop would consider hiring DC as an assistant when he comes back to Cuse.

If they were a dork as a player (Wojo, Paulus, Danny Hurley), then they’ll be a dork as a coach. I don’t want a dork.

Wait, we are talking about being the Syracuse coach, correct? Couldn't have been a bigger dork than our current coach when he played and started coaching. No offense meant. Just saying.

Did Boeheim flop and slap the floor? Doesn’t seem like his thing. Buddy doesn’t act like a dork out there.

SMH, look at this guy...

Has he, though?

Those are all crazy competitive guys and more importantly, Winners their entire life. I don’t think people care if they are dorks if they win. Known Greg my whole life, def not a dork. And he will get a look at the job if he has success at niagara.

Undercutter and flopper supremes. The epitome of everything I (and everybody else) hated about Duke basketball in the 90s and 00s.
