if the "coach in waiting leaves", than syracuse will be stuck in the same position UConn was just in recruiting wise in calhoun's final years. Recruits will be leary of committing to a coach who could retire (or worse) at any moment.

That's perfect in just so many ways.

FWIW, I would not want to Moore up there. He's a decent recruiter.

Do you really think kids are lining up for a chance to play for Mike Hopkins if JB steps down? I can't imagine the coach in waiting is helping them at all.

This. I want Hopkins at Syracuse. He is well schooled in Boeheim suckitude, and will continue the orange tradition of doing less with more.

Hopkins leaves and when jb retires they could actually get someone who can coach.dont want that.

ACC schools have hired away coaches from BC whenever they felt the need. It may look bad, but the ACC appears not to care much about how it's perceived.

Well he is their main recruiter and the biggest reason along with the Melo Center that their recruiting has improved over the last few years. Do you think kids are lining up because they want to play zone for the nose picker in a giant dump stadium?

Agree, Hopkins to BC would be terrible news. BC can find someone else who sucks.

I can see JB throwing Hoppy under the bus next year before an ACC reunion game next year…………..

Or leaving the Roberts Center in Boston after a triple OT win over BC next year….JB saying after the game "This is why the ACC is the best and always was and will be. For us to come in here and find a way to get a W in front of their raucous FAN is something I will lever forget. And to find a way to make a play against that BC 2-3 zone…….amazing, simply amazing"
