@umhoops Can i say this now? 
āWelp, Dylan doesnt just write articles and interviews on a whim without a basisā¦ I view this as foreshadowing the hireā
If heās willing to put the effort needed into it, heāll destroy on the recruiting trail
Certainly looks that way. I suppose it depends how his interview goes but I would not be surprised to see this wrap up soon.
I have some hope for Michigan basketball to not only maintain but go forth and improve. I just hope this means what I think it means. Some fabulous five years ahead, Go Blue!
A great timely piece by Dylan. Just curious what is Five Reason Sports?
Iām excited.
āWeak side help is a constantā
Soā¦who would Juwan bring with him as his offensive coordinator?
I was just typing exactly that.
Certainly, keeping Haynes is a possibility. Everyone understand the appeal of having some continuity.
DeAndre hasnāt been getting the same love as Yak and Saddi on that front, but would seemingly be a better fit than our defense and bigs coaches, respectively.
One of the only outlets I can find that has written any kind of feature or story on Juwan.
I think it would be absolutely critical to hire an assistant with college head coaching experience.
Now this is what Iāve been waiting for. The media keeps interviewing the other Fab Five guys, but Iāve wanted to hear more from people who arenāt close personal friends of his.
Who are the offense-oriented former head coaches that are currently assistants or unemployed that check off the UM ADās boxes?
Probably all over the place, I assume Juwan has a staff in mind when he went into his interview. Otherwise his interview probably didnāt go that well.
Someone dug up a name the other day with connections to Juwan, but I canāt find it.
Yup, have to imagine one of the primary questions in the interview would have been about his staffing plansā¦Iād imagine for any candidate, but more of a priority for a candidate not currently in the college game.
This would be a big change from Yaklich, and also a big reason I donāt think Yaklich would be on Howardās staff.
Yaklichās defense does NOT help very much and relies on solid man to man principles. Rewatch the Villanova game if you want any indication of that.
If Juwan comes in that seems like it will change completely as per Dylanās piece, not sure Yak will be on board with that.
FWIW, one of the first things I ever remember Yaklich saying when he arrived was āthe help never gets beatā. I am not sure that it means it would that radically different of a defensive approach, especially just from a few high-level observations of Miamiās defense.
That being said, Yaklich may not want to stick around for a job to coach under Howard and might have better opportunities elsewhere.
I have a feeling that if Juwan gets hired, Yaklich follows Beilein to Cleveland (and not to Texas with Shaka).
