      Not that Drew would need it, but I feel the mutual respect for those is strong.
      That's not how it works. I'd hope our coach isn't asking permission when a player hits the portal.

      • LetsGoShockers - Are you still hearing the same info about the assistant coaches? I guess that announcement should be this week. You didn’t respond to the guess that I made about who 1 of the assistants might be.

          I didn't say that's how it normally works.

          I'm giving special consideration to this situation based on how I read the relationship between Mills and Drew.

          Also not saying it would stop him from going to Baylor, but just that Drew might give Mills first dibs on this one.

                Wouldnt be right for me to say a name until it’s officially announced but yah man ; I don’t understand why it takes so long to announce. Maybe he was on the road for games for 4-5 days then had to come back and start the HR process & background checks; who knows.

                    I also wouldn't expect Drew to ask ORU or WSU permission. Every man to himself with the portal.

                      I would love to see some international players in Shocker unis, if it were possible. Historically, I think WSU has fared well with them.

                                "Man, a little bit of everything," Lucas replied when asked by Robinson about what he hoped was next for his career. "Obviously I want to get back into coaching. I want to be a head coach one day in the league. And once I'm done coaching, I want to move into the front office."
                                "I want to be able to orchestrate a team the way some of my colleagues are doing now, from Kyle Korver to Landry Fields to James Jones out here in Phoenix to Elgin Brand out in Philly. I feel like, as former players, we know how to put pieces to the puzzle together, we know what works and what [doesn't] work. I feel like I want to at least try to orchestrate a team... And you can see the job that James Jones and Elgin Brand [have] done for their teams.
                                He was a key part of Frank Vogel's most recent staff.
