If you go back ten years or so, Syracuse recruiting was absolutely dead in the water - I think the Post Standard offended Boeheim with an article stating as much.
Shortly thereafter, Beoheim bumped his staff around and put Hopkins and Troy Weaver on the recruiting trail and it's been gangbusters since. They went whole hog into the AAU scene and it paid off, but I wonder if it hasn't come back to haunt them.
Also, interesting how Hopkins, despite being rumored to be such a good assistant coach, has been unable to get a head coaching gig.
This may end that road for him.
