I'd say 2 more. There should be something about 'Shoes' new role.
I'd also like to hear more about the role of Mrs. Rickard.
From his Stony Brook bio:
"Rickard lives in Port Jefferson with his wife, Courtney, Stony Brook's associate athletic director for student-athlete development and life skills, their sons, Patrick and Braden, and daughter, Mallory."

It's been a done deal for weeks. What else to say? We like.

Heck I'd take Hobbs as a head coach! Didn't realize how impressive his resume was.

 

[coachkos]

[pmvon]

Crazy good

 

[JQRU91]

Another Hobbs on the athletic department payroll? I smell some nepotism going on here.

[roll]

But all kidding aside, looks like a great hire.

 

[rufeelinit]

Very happy with this staff.

Just read the bio

Love the fact these guys are friends (Hobbs and Pikiell), and come from the UConn coaching tree.

With 2 National titles, he has the bling and experience just like Ash.
I think that is a huge compliment to all of their leadership skills and characteristics.

Onward and upward!
Very exciting times ahead at RU, indeed!!

Article mentioned 5 of Hobbs assistants are head coaches. Anyone know the 4 other than Pikiell?

In this specific chapter - and in many more to come - it would be fascinating to have a glimpse of the degree & nature of the contribution of Jim Calhoun in the process.
