I know. But the title is right. I would have said something about it earlier but I honestly didn't think anyone would really care.

Doing a quick search seems to be somewhat of guru and wonderkid. He's still relatively young and would bring a fresh pair of eyes while also being an alumni. I'm all for this!

It will

It will

Wonder if it leaked early and he got a counter offer from the Knicks to stay...

Unless it’s a major difference in $$ I would think a GM role at the college level would be the ideal stepping stone to launch from. Nothing wrong with doing it the long way as a scout but he could speed things up if he crushes it in this role.
