Mike Hopkins, Syracuse, new head hoops coach

LaZoris

Word on the street was he was promised the head coaching job years ago, and Syracuse/Boeheim have renigged. Reports are that he had chances to move, but preferred to stay hoping he would be the Orange head coach in the near future

So he's basically a golden retriever who finally realized his owner is a dick.

Sounds like a DAWG!!

How could the UWAD fire a great man and alum in Romar for a Wehrmacht-looking mother fucker like this? I am shaking and vomiting

I have no idea how to feel, mostly because I've ignored CBB for the past five years. I'm waiting for @DNC to tell me whether I should like this hire.

Never heard of him or the people he has been compared to.

CBS really needed to lay off showing that kid over and over.

That being said....was pretty funny.

I'll wait until Fleenor confirms that we've been eliminated from tournament contention by the selection committee before I just assume we're getting a new coach

So this is the basketball equivalent of hiring Sark to replace Ty?

All will be forgiven if she wears 6 inch stilettos to the press conference as a nod to HH.

Do they make 6-inch stilettos with shock absorbing heels?

It sounds like a decent hire. My concern is how long he'll stay

More like Mack Brown naming Will Muschamp coach-in-waiting, but Muschamp gets tired of waiting and bails.

...I don't know which is worse.

I like this hire.

This might actually be a very intelligent hire. I'm off the ledge.

If he denies Dawgman access to the program, I'll probably like him.
