Then you’re saying both Shaka and Will left their Defense at VCU cause Will sure didn’t bring it to the boot

He has been trying to run Havoc here but you cant run it effectively without a true center. So the last couple of years it hasnt been an option. He wants to implement a 1-3-1 zone press. We saw flashes of it at times this year with Trendon or Josh out front in the half court version. We were nowhere near quick enough to run it effectively the past 2 years. You simply cant run a full court press with slow players. I think we will see that change next season.

Watford wasn't a good defender either.
I think the type of players he got in this year will help with the press.
Eason, fudge, and reid will help.

Fudge is a bad defender

Apparently according to hoop dirt.con there is a recent opening for a full time basketball coach position. The posting is for a Special Assistant to the Head Coach which was previously filled by Assistant Coach Nickleberry. For those laughing at the Tre Mitchell ‘s family member looking for a job in the basketball office there now appears some real smoke to the fire.

If Mitchell ends up at LSU they will legit compete for another SEC title.

That is a support staff position, not a coaching position. Teams are allowed 1 head coach and 3 assistant coaches.
They can pretty much have infinite support staff positions. Vanderbilt has more than 10. LINK
Unless it’s different for transfers, the rule is family members have to be brought on in one of the 4 coaching positions, right?

If he isn’t Mitchell’s father and he’s not married to Mitchell’s mother would the rule apply to him?

I look for Tre Mitchell to commit relatively soon. The Gangster has loaded the cards at the table once again.
Would be awesome, assuming he can keep the handler (I’ll just call the mom’s bf/fiancé that for now since it is easier and what he is) in check and they don’t become a distraction to the team.
Bigger question though is whose place would Mitchell take?

Mitchell aside, Wade needs to be looking to add some more support/analysts type positions. Can only help for film breakdown and scouting. But more importantly, NCAA passed a new rule for this summer allowing for teams to have non full time coaches work directly with players during the summer workout periods. It was done b/c coaches complained that they need to spend the bulk of this summer recruiting to play catch-up from Covid, which means there would be no one left on campus to do player workouts and skill practices.
This would be a great opportunity to bring in a couple technically sound coaches and developers not interested in being a FT coach b/c of recruiting and let one work with the guards and the other work with the front court guys.

Coach Nickleberry was hired at that same exact position and moved up to an assistant coach onece a position became available.

Ok, but it’s still a support staff position and not a coaching position. Nickelberry wasn’t the family member of a recruit, right?

Technically there is no family link. He is dating not married to Mitchell’s mother.

Ok, but your post specifically mentioned the people laughing at the idea of giving a job to Mitchell’s family member.
If it’s true he isn’t subject to the coaching position rule, then there’s nothing newsworthy about your post. They can simply create another support staff position for Mitchell’s mom’s boyfriend right now if they want, and the discussion around Mitchell is solely about available scholarships if he wants to go to lsu.

Not looking for your approval in regards to what I choose to post or not post. I don’t remember reading that you were in charge of the posting on this link. In summation , I don’t give a “toss” to what your consider noteworthy.
