The longest 18" on the planet are from assistant to head coach.

Super happy this site is back up.
Not much of a MIAA race this year with Hope running away in the standings.
But Hope could have lost any number of games.
Not sure if that last loss shows weakness or if it was a needed wake up ala National Championship year.
Either way, one of four teams is going to win tonight and tomorrow to earn the right to play again next week and the other three are goin' fishing.

Gleaning from social media pictures, Hope will not have any 5th year players.

Nevertheless, I speculate Hope can reload.  They had some really good players in role positions last year, and there will be always good newcomers too.  I suspect coach Mo can get them coached up into his system (coaching experienced and new-to-your-system players doesn't always go well, note the bench saw PT diminish late last season).
