Chris Mullin and Cheick Diallo

KO had only a few years experience, but his NBA experience around the league was what was helpful. And he can sell better than most coaches can without coming off as insincere.

It's a wait and see with Mullin on the court, just as it was for Ollie. And it will be a wait and see with his recruiting, although his rep is more well-known than KO's and he has just made a great hire. I think he's already doing better than I anticipated.

I hope he doesn't steal Samuels from us.

Lmao. I enjoyed that.

Assistant for 2, but I'm sure you knew that. Like most coaches with zero or little experience Mullin will be a wait and see. Some can hack it, some can't. Even a step up from a mid major to a high major can ruin some. Ollie has shown he can, but just like there was numerous doubters when he started, Mullin will have numerous doubters until he shows how good he is. The recruiting team is strong but that's only part of the equation but a good start.

I was simply responding to the poster who said that Mullin would bring nothing as a coach. I was not sure exactly how long Ollie had been coaching but I think it's a fair comparison to make to a poster who makes a statement like that before a guy who obviously knows the game very well has ever coached a second.
