Message: [QUOTE="AlpharettaCuse, post: 3227027, member: 1466"] May is the director of basketball operations. He’s not an assistant coach. by the way, Bill Guthridge was UNC’s big man coach for 30 years, and got tremendous results. He’s a 5-10 former guard. Who knew a 5-10 guard could teach big men? ”Guthridge’s impact at Chapel Hill had always been quiet, and it went on long before he became the head coach. He was the Tar Heels’ shooting coach, and it isn’t a coincidence that UNC at one point shot better than 50% from the floor for 18 consecutive seasons with Guthridge on the sidelines. He was also the big man coach, and it is wonderfully ironic to note that stars from Mitch Kupchak to Sam Perkins to Brad Daugherty to Eric Montross to Rasheed Wallace to Brendan Haywood owe at least some of their success to a man who didn’t top six feet tall.” [/QUOTE]
