Huard: Hopkins hire feels similar to Petersen hire

LOL come on
If UW hired Archie Miller
THAT would be a similiar hire to Petersen.
Petersen was a head coach. Hopkins is an assistant coach. Hopkins feels like a Sark hire -
Maybe Huard just means that they're similar because they were both hired and are new to the school. He's got a point, you know.

Totally with you until the last line. The Sark comp is extremely lazy. They were both assistants. That's basically it.BrickSquad said:LOL come on

Petersen was a head coach. Hopkins is an assistant coach. Hopkins feels like a Sark hireThat's basically it.1) hired by a school with failing programs 2) hired to replace a legendary black coach 3) learned under a "great coach" 4) being paid millions to learn on the job etc etc etc

1. And if we would have hired Gregg Marshlall that would have still been true. Has nothing to do with whether or not Hopkins is a good hire.NeGgaPlEaSe said:

2. Legendary? Sure.gif. Again, this would have been the same similarity if we had hired Archie Miller. So yeah, good point.
3. You can say that about basically any coach UW has ever hired in my lifetime. Lambo, Neuheisel, Gilby, Ty, Sark. Shit people made the same claim about Romar.
4. Learn on the job isn't something that actually happens as has been laid out multiple times already.
The only real comparison of any substance is that he's unproven. That's a legitimate point. But he's not sizzle like Sark, he's a balding white dude with no dude brah in him. He's a lot more proven than Sark was as an assistant over a long period of time (and with Team USA). He came out of nowhere - Sark was thrown out as a candidate by a poaster on this very site. Nobody saw Hopkins coming.
He's just not that similar of a hire to Sark. Maybe he'll have similar results, maybe not.
EWIWBI. -

But feel free to have that new pilot land your plane or handle an inflight problem that may occur, having skipped his "learning on the job period" -
He's either good or he's not LIFPO.

Right Because Brock Huard always shoots from the hip when broadcasting. He was for keeping Romar last week, at least on the radio.
Dudes a good College Football color man. But He's a milktoast mouth piece when it comes to anything related to Seattle sports on the radio. -
They are both white

Maybe he'll suck maybe he won't, at least he brings hope and kept Conroy.
Seems like he hired two good assistants too. He probably won't be all-zone all of the time like Boeheim to keep things fresh.
It also sounds like he liked Jimmy Johnson's Hurricanes:

I really hope he goes zone, it's the only system he's ever known and coached. And no dnc, the Olympic all star teams don't count.

I hope we have mothafuckers who do blow on weekends and pimp out hoes! Those were Romar's best teams! Hi @VenoysPinkyRingHFNY said:Maybe he'll suck maybe he won't, at least he brings hope and kept Conroy.

LOL. No fan base can rationalize better than Husky nation. You fags have managed to make Oregon seem rational and composed.

I don't get the zone hate. Play good defense. Period.Gladstone said:I really hope he goes zone, it's the only system he's ever known and coached. And no dnc, the Olympic all star teams don't count.
Sure 40 minutes of hell is more exciting, but if he can win with zone, do it.
Just don't run some boring fucking offense that looks like paint drying #39points -
Syracuse's 2-3 is pretty sophisticated. There's a bunch of rotations and traps. They'll bring their lower wing guys out much higher than most teams so it's almost a 2-2-1. With long-armed athletes, they disrupt things.ThomasFremont said:

It's not your arms up and do jumping jacks bullshit that most teams use.

You will not be disappointed with Hopkins. We at Syracuse are very sorry to see him go , as he was our succession plan to replace Boeheim. I am now a Husky fan!
