We are not hiring a G League Coach with no major college experience as our Head Coach. Gibbs would be wise to get experience as a College Assistant if he wishes to be a College Coach. An Assistant on a Big XII Coaching Staff is a resume builder. Pro game is completely different.

I know finances will get creative, but you'd think JP would at least comp this man for an Avalon.
The next coach will be getting paid $7.25 an hour
Interesting link on Mike Daum. Redshirted first year at SDSU. Project it sounds like. Maybe TJ deserves some credit for Daum’s development.
How South Dakota State's Mike Daum went from off the map to on NBA radars
It was one 3-point performance, and a lot of hard work, that changed a basketball player's lifewww.cbssports.com
He got more minutes with only very slight improvements. TJ was there for Soph thru Senior.

I'm guessing that they wanted to allow as much time between conference tournaments and the start of the tournament to give the maximum chances for any cases/contact tracing to wash out.
But if JP knows he’s the guy, a less than ideal resume doesn’t matter, remember? And we’ve Zoomed interviewed 30 candidates over the last month, and all others weren’t worthy of continuing or had no interest. We couldn’t afford others due to budget issues.
Why isn’t the first round starting on Thursday this year?
The decision is tied to coronavirus testing protocols.
“The 2021 March Madness schedule is primarily a function of the health and safety protocols for all participants, respecting conference tournaments, balancing time away from campus for college student-athletes, competitive considerations for a national championship and fan engagement during a relatively traditional tournament timetable,” Dan Gavitt, the NCAA’s senior vice president of basketball, said in a January statement.
Moving back the play-in games till Thursday and the first round till Friday also allows the NCAA a bigger window to replace any qualifying teams that do not meet the testing protocols. A team can be replaced in the field up until Tuesday at 6 p.m. Eastern time.
If that's not Fred coming to Des Moines, then he's definitely on one of the two private flights that just left Lincoln to the Twin Cities within the last hour.

Fred’s going to take the Minnesota job. Finally!
Charlie Henry went from G League head coach to SEC assistant coach... for reference on staff role comparisons.
I would think it would have to be an "Associate HC" position or whatever, right?
He’s been sick and I’m guessing Chris is telling everyone he’s back. However, what if he’s not talking about himself and is actually talking about someone else being back?
