He would be a solid choice.
Disagree. We need a talent evaluator. He has never built a team or thought about how players will together. Hubert had 5mm and was stubborn and passed over multiple people including Wolf waiting for the wrong guys.
Hubert did not have 5 million. The football team only had 4 mill, and basketball had significantly less. Hubert did not "pass over multiple people." Hubert identified numerous talented fits including Maxime Raynaud, Adou Thiero, and Clifford Omoruyi.
Nobody was complaining about talent evaluation last year when we were winning the ACC and getting a 1 seed. But this season, which was wrecked by a lack of NIL funds, has suddenly turned into a referendum on talent evaluation. If we had the NIL money to win over Theiro and Omoruyi, would you still be complaining about talent evaluation?
We need a GM to oversee and prevent our NIL from ever becoming the dumpster fire it was last offseason. We need him to deliver the players our staff wants, and keep us from ever again having to settle for guys like Lubin and Claude.
I highly doubt Rachel Baker is doing any in depth talent evaluation at Dook. I think the basketball side of things can be handled by the staff, or a staff.
Taking care of NIL, sponsors, donors and having a working understanding and relationship with professional basketball is the key.
Jim Tanner has an impressive resume if this is indeed the guy.
