In my opinion, you have to bring in a former Cat to be the new assistant coach. Reggie would make sure this team played defense.

Recruit players who are capable of playing defense on the perimeter. We had 3 perimeter guys starting who weren't quite frankly.

If Miller is all in on this rebuilding job... a fresh start if you will... he will bring in his own people, maybe from his X days, etc... and change everything up.

On the plus, this is a great time to really start his program over new.

However, just don't know if his energy is there to undertake this. He has more than enough $ to retire right now, plus there's always assistant job somewhere in the NBA. Don't see him taking another college job, at least for 5 years...

What a crossroads he's at.

Geary has already been kicked to the curb twice.
But he actually has a lot of coaching experience.

He has Mater Dei connections obviously, but don't know about the rest. I'd be up for it if we didn't have two very green assistants on staff. We need a head man type like Phelps or Pasternack. Tim Miles once Nebraska let's him go is my guy.

Would be all in for that. They have a Juco combo guard commit that I'd be interested in as well...

Wasn't Geary COY in the NBDL or Japanese league?

Looking it up, it was the Japanese league:

So he does have some coaching experience.
