Hearing there's a very good chance he will be one of the assistants.

Don't know if that's a good or bad thing at this point.

    Hearing from doogs that Dollar was one of Romar's most valuable, if not the MOST valuable assistants.

    Translation: Black coaches relate to kids and we, as doogs, don't know any other ones because we live in an insulated fanboy bubble

    As a middle aged white male, I can hold a Starbucks cup loaded with cash as well as any black male half my age.

    Take a little off the top for, you know, the vig. But unless you're after a rich white kid, nobody notices.

    Nothing about dollar excites me. Will is more Seattle than cam can ever be, and dollar hasn't proved to be valuable after many years at the helm in Seattle. I don't see what he brings to the table but more washed up romar.

    It's times to reboot this whole program save conroy

    Exactly ...

    This actually is a minor red flag to me because I can't really fathom that Dollar was on the short list of candidates for Hopkins. Really makes me wonder if outside of the public thanks but no thanks that came from Hart that Hopkins struck out on a few of his other targets.

    To me, bringing Dollar back on staff is the equivalent of just trading out Romar and expecting things will be different. I can get behind Will being on staff because I think his ultimate loyalty is to the program and not Romar and with his NBA (and D-League) experiences have probably got him deep down realizing that Romar was a shit coach at this point on the court. But Dollar's a failed coach at Seattle U ... and there's no real excuse to me for never being able to get above mediocrity at Seattle U given THAT shit tier conference that they are in ... outside of New Mexico St there's no excuse for not being a Top 3 program in that conference consistently.
    I'll 2nd that opinion. Dollar was gawd awful at SPU, and you've allready thrown the olive branch out to the Seattle AAU scene by keeping Conroy. Did you need to really double down by adding Dollar to your staff?

    Be it a quick/easy/safe hire, I just would have thought Hopkins could have found a better option than Dollar.
