Trent Tucker was on KFAN this afternoon so I decided to call in. I asked him (1) if the MN bigs with the return of Trevor and improved rebounding could lead MN to a quicker paced offense a style of play conducive to the Hollins twins and certainly R. Williams, if MN can take care of the basketball; (2) if he would consider joining Tubby's staff and (3) whether he could assist in the recruitment of T Jones. While he didn't address the first question he interestingly said he'd be interested in joining the staff but has never been contacted. He added, whether boastingly or with inside information, that he could be a recruiting asset.
I say, why shouldn't Tubby contact TT? He's well connected in MN and basketball circles generally. While Flip might have the NBA coaching experience, TT has been more involved in basketball camps and developing local relationships.
As to the running game, my point was and is that not only do I think we can make a successful run at it, but it would be an asset in the recruitment of Tyus, who clearly prefers that style of offense as noted in his interviews.
