The off-season momentum is picking up really well.

Thanks for the link Versus75. Was not familiar with him, but he sounds like a man who could really help the Dores.

For sure. Would be kinda tacky to hire the guy and then bolt 2-3 weeks later.

Didn't he hit a huge shot in the NCAA tournament one year? He played for Kent State when they went to the Elite 8 one year, my memory seems to tell me he hit a huge shot, maybe game winner, in one of those tourney games...

Looks like a good pickup. Thanks for the bio. I also noted, "served as associate head coach of Stackhouse Elite AAU travel team in Atlanta (2011)"

According to his bio he's got some form of tie to Coach Stack through his time working with the Stackhouse Elite AAU program. He looks solid. I hope that translates to good news on the recruiting trail and better player development for our student athletes.
