First - it will be great to have a head coach who the point guards literally can look up to.
Second - This is a great hire in that it removes the stigma of UD being a stepping stone to P5 jobs - recruits will not see our coach mentioned with EVERY P5 opening. It brings us to that next level.
Those that are down on this hire - either had an agenda or just are clueless. Great Hire by UD. We have a coach that can talk to recruits about being here 100% for them for 4 years, show them a NCAA championship ring, talk about the NBA - and then tell them his personal experience of stepping out on court with 13,500 fans screaming and rocking UD arena. NONE - ZIP - NADA of the other names considered brought all those pieces.
Again - Great hire - and Great day for UD.
Go Flyers and welcome home AG
