Cohen can stay as long as the boosters demand a good hire and she makes it happen.
Anything else, bye.
Hate on Hop now all you want but he was a home run hire. He was the heir at Syracuse and early indications were good.
Even the Jimmy hiring made sense.
Your take on Hopkins is laughably bad. Look his record up when he filled in for Boeheim. He was awful and had some bad losses. There's a reason no other program hired him. Lifer assistant = loser. If he was so great he would've stayed out East and been hired by a Big East school, not had to jump 2500 miles away to a second tier (at best) hoops program.

Yes he was so bad he was the HC in waiting at a serious basketball school.

BS title for more pay. Those guys leave all the time. He didn't have it in him for a long time. I suspect other people could sense that. Except for Jenn. She probably was impressed by him doing push-ups during his interview.

Literally no one had this take when he was hired. It was universally praised and Cuse fans were sad to see him go.

The Hop hire was what it was … on the surface fine
But she gave him a quick long term extension with punitive termination terms for UW if it went South

Mike Hopkins was a pushup hire suggested by some very powerful boosters over at the Tyee Club and former players that wanted to turn the UW MBB program into Syracuse West by hiring a 22 year career assistant coach to lead the way.
Mike Hopkins had never been a head coach before at any level outside of taking over for Jim Boheim when he was suspeneded by the NCAA and went 4-5 with a Syracuse team that would eventually make the Final Four.
Mike Hopkins looked good coaching Romar's recruits but ever since he had to get off of the LoRo lifeboat he has been atrocious coaching his own recruits recruited by him to play in his outdated defensive system and who knows what he is running on offense going into his fifth year coaching at Montlake.
Mike Hopkins basketball acumen is severely lacking as is his ability to make in game and half time adjustments in real time.
Mike Hopkins can't manage the program properly either word to Quade Green (academics) and Naz Carter (sexual assault allegation cover up).
Also, after 4 seasons leading the program who has Mike Hopkins developed? Naz Carter? Hameir Wright? Jamal Bey? Nate Roberts? Cole Bajema?
I don't know why the UW hired an assistant lap dog coach from a dirty NCAA program...that's on Jen Cohen and her fascination with hotel room interview pushups.

Regardless of whom is hired Jen needs to go. She is the worst negotiator for an AD I have ever seen. Locking up shit assts to long term deals. Donovan could have been had for so much less.
She kept hop for now two extra years that is cratering the basketball program.
She hires coaches and gets out of the way. She can’t coach up and lead those below her. She cried when Pete quit when the program was in a good spot with a good hire to make up for his weaknesses.

She isn’t a leader. She is a fundraiser.
It seems like Fudge said earlier that Pete is the real AD

If this is true it is only because she has no idea wtf she is doing. All the more reason to fire her.

But I’m reading tea leaves … there’s no rational logic for her to stay through the end of the contract
Given the size of her contract, that’s a real easy buyout to stomach
Im right on the Hop point so dont bother.
Then, we have the best coach in 30 years who lead us to the playoffs say "this is my dude, I support hiring him. He is ready."
You dont think the boosters were on board with that?
Fucking idiot. Go play zone defense in traffic
Cohen gets blame for Donovan.
If Jen hires Stoops or DeBoer are you fine with her staying?
But she gave him a quick long term extension with punitive termination terms for UW if it went South
That’s where Jen fucked up

It only took Jen Cohen two days to hire Hopkins https://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/2017/03/timeline_of_mike_hopkins_hiring_washington_acted_swiftly_to_pluck_sus_coach_in_w.html after she backstabbed LoRo after promising Romar the upcoming season to coach his highly touted recruiting class before making a decision on his coaching future at the UW.
Btw- didn't Mike Hopkins come over from a dirty NCAA sanction program in Syracuse https://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2015/3/9/8166543/syracuse-ncaa-scandal-explained-jim-boeheim where he feigned ignorance to the related particulars despite, in his own words, being very involved with the players both on and off of the court?
