And most recently he also coached in the NBA. Other than he was so short, I doubt any of today's recruits remember anything about him. It's still the connections to that gig that will get recruits excited. Avery is very good at leveraging that, even tho he has been removed from it for awhile. AG's pedigree is he is a very good recruiter. That was before he went to OKC 2 years ago. So now he also has the NBA connections all of today's recruits know the guys he's coached. I expect him to do very well in bringing recruits to UD.
