The more I read and learn about Kyle Smith, I’m a little intrigued….

[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Richmond']University of Richmond[/URL] head men's basketball coach [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Mooney_(basketball)']Chris Mooney[/URL] referred to Smith as "the smartest man in college basketball. I think he has the best feel and overview of basketball programs and coaching of anyone I've ever met.

His coaching style has been dubbed “Nerdball”, which is a system that utilizes analytics to track and make decisions on many aspects about the team.

While at Saint Mary's, he played a role in building the Gaels program into a perennial contender in the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Coast_Conference']West Coast Conference[/URL]. In his nine seasons with the Gaels, they made three NCAA Tournament (2005, 2008, 2010) appearances and earned one [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Invitation_Tournament']National Invitation Tournament[/URL] (2009) bid. Saint Mary's averaged 23 wins over his last six seasons on the staff, including an 81–20 record over the last three seasons.

I’ll be honest, didn’t know much of Kyle Smith, but after reading a bunch about him, he seems like a very good coach!
