Mike Hopkins - Syracuse asst

Hopkins would be great but for how long[/quote]
Who cares?

Give me three or four good years, move on to a bigger job. As long as we get back to making the NCAA Tourney again and being relevent, I’m happy with the young energetic guys.

Utter tweeted that Hopkins and Kelsey are the top two candidates.

it is always better to follow the guy that followed THE guy, than to follow THE guy. In other words, I wouldn’t want to follow JB’s reign.

If cuse wants to hand us some money in 4 years cause Hopkins was that successful, I’ll take it.

I would take 3 or 4 years with Hopkins, if only 1 or 2
I don’t want him

If Hopkins is interested in coming to Charlotte to get HC experience before taking over Syracuse it says a lot about our potential as a program.

Little harder to navigate, but there are 3 threads that mention it. Mixed feelings on it from people at SU.

That makes you really appreciate this forum… Thanks Mac.

Even if we have no shot at this dude, props on making public. Again feeds the msg to the industry we wanna ink a stud. Only risk is when and how many denials there are made public

Makes me think we are close since so many confirmations going on

Wow… if anyone wants to see what the internet looked like in 1998, just click that link.

Holy cow that board sucks. Guess there’s no orangemac out there for the cuse. :))

I think that is just the style of message board on the genericnewspaper or city.com websites. NJ.com used to have it, might stillhave it.

That is why the Final 4 contains 3 HOF coaches and no 1st team All Americans. :stuck_out_tongue:

Correct… not a fan site like this

Sorta surprised that a program like Syracuse would have fans gravitating to a newspaper website instead of one specifically sports-related. I think URI is the only A-10 fan website connected to the local daily, but at least Projo.com is current on layout. BTW, worst A-10 website (layout-wise, that is) is the GW one, followed closely by one for Duquesne.

I think Syracuse fans have legit message boards, but there might be enough of a fan base that uses the syracuse.com because they can post about community related events on that site as well.

This isn’t so much the case. Syracuse has done most of its work with under the radar talent. They don’t historically land the blue chippers that a Kansas, Duke, UNC-CH or even UConn land. I think part of that is they recruit guys that fit their system instead of just overall talent.[/quote]
thats not at all true. carmelo, warrick, flynn, etc. all five star talents. they have a five star center coming in next year. they can recruit with anybody.

Reread what I wrote.

They are a top 5 program, of course they will land 5 star recruits. However, they don’t land the McDonald’s AAs like Kansas, Duke, UCLA, and UNC-CH do. I think their recruiting talent level is closer to that of Michigan State, while not bad at all, is not elite like the aforementioned schools.

Agree… Tier 1: KU, UK, Duke, UCLA, UNC-CH

Tier 2: MSU, SU, Texas, OSU
