Like it, but this is something we all knew was going to happen, his lead assistant will determine exactly how well this hire goes.

It’s a fricking story based on a Fletcher Mackel tweet.

Sources reporting Willie Green isn't politically engaged on Twitter. I love the hire already

Gentry was a lazy hire and looked great because he had two of the best sharp shooters in league history.

Only in the sense that the players will actually like him. We honestly have no idea what Willie Green’s coaching philosophy is. Uncle Al just hit us with “pace” every few minutes

After all the bullshite about them waiting too long and running out of good options I think Griff got this one right. I originally thought it would be Charles Lee but this seems like a great hire too. I hope they let him pick his own staff past Vinson and Weatherspoon.

I kinda like it. After listening to him and Charles Lee in a few interviews, Green seemed a lot more like head coach material. Also, if he comes in with a ring on his finger the players will respond well to that
