What could happen...

i'm shocked he's willing to put his legacy on the line.

Probably he figures that if a bubblehead like Lavin can win 20 games he can win 40. If he does win he becomes a legend. If he loses everyone would still love him and he gets 10 million for his trouble. Nobody in Boston cares what Ted Williams record as a manager was.

But now he is just a decapitated frozen head

Yes.   Imagine he brings in Slice, like Dave mentioned. 

You either know hoops or you don't.   Weren't the Kings thinking of hiring Chris? 

Steve Kerr had no experience.   Mark Jackson before that. 

Smart people surround themselves with smarter people.  I think a Mullin led staff would do exactly that.   

kerr and jackson are bad examples.  those guys took over a team led by arguably the most exciting player in the nba.

I am at lunch now. When I get back I will ask my students who Chris mullin is? I doubt any of them know. These kids follow basketball. They all want to be Isaiah briscoe and shampor ponds.

But do they know who Steve Lavin is?

the kids won't but their parents will.

Their coaches and parents and handlers know who Mullin is. That the kids don't might be on the teacher.

Love this logic.

We should make Bobby Schmurda our new head coach because the high school kids know him.

A staff of Mullin, Slice, Matt A, and whoeever else (even if it's T Mullin or Steve Shurina)  would be outstanding

I am not sold on the legend coming back to coach like Drexler for example but Mullin is just a basketball gym rat who made himself great without "the athlete" attached to his skill set

I think he would be an outstanding coach

But their parents will and that will matter in recruiting.

Like a Pete Rose....Without the gambling.

And he's still smarter than Lavin.

I had to look

412-373 in carreer, not too shabby

Worry would be recruiting. If Slice is part of the deal, when did those conversations take place? Can't imagine Cal would be happy that his assistant is talking about other jobs during the tourney.

Mullin was on the dream team.   Kids know who he is/was. 
And just as importantly, he was an NBA GM.

Why would Cal care, he's probably looking for a bigger better thing (if that is possible) himself lol

Recruiting kids, helps if they know who you are. Should just bring Kate Upton or Rihanna on recruiting trips.

Would Louie care if during 85 final four Mahoney was talking to Iona about going there to be an assistant?
That would have maybe changed SJU history for the better, but still.

Lavin's here for the long term fellas.

Someone just tweeted that Mark Jackson on campus
