The fact that Gerry is bringing in some important, talented minds from outside the family is critical and very encouraging.

Definitely. Add AO as a family hire and it’s a great group. He was one of the smartest players academically we have ever had and also played extremely smart.

I haven’t heard a word about it

None of us have. Eerily quiet

None of us have. Eerily quiet

So - what exactly do we know about AO as a coach?

And why is he “the one” we want as a “family” hire?

As has been proven hundreds of times across college & pro sports -
The best performing athletes rarely make the best coaches.

Otherwise - why weren’t guys like Jordan and Gretzky GOATs when In coaching/ownership positions?

And FWIW - I think Rick Jackson was actually a more skilled Big than AO was.

The bigs on Siena played fundamentally sound. Announcers during the Duke game commented how well coached and fundamentally sound.

He is a good bigs coach. We need that.

In the very limited games I saw, the Siena big men played smart, like AO did. He's not a typical athlete-becomes-coach, in my opinion. He was a big guy who wasn't that tall and couldn't really jump, yet he played much bigger and smarter than his natural skills would have suggested he would.

“A big guy who wasn’t tall”…6’9 isn’t tall enough in college?
“Yet he played much bigger”…So he was 6’9 260 in college but he played like what 7’2 325?
Help me understand your logic.
