Just watched all 11 minutes of this. Great postgame interview. He's going to be dangerous if he gets the talent in there that I'm sure he pictures in his head.
Could be fun days ahead for Marshall hoops. Very refreshing interview. Thanks for posting it.
The twitter version was funny as can be but hearing and watching Dan tear the beat reporters question down into points per shot was epic.
The recruiting and getting transfers has started since Dan stepped on campus. Jon Elmore (VMI), Stevie Browning (Fairmont State, should have been in GW all 4 years), Terrence Thompson (Juco, Charlotte Commit), Phil Bledsoe, Ky're Allison, CJ Burks are all good shooters. Add in players like Austin Loop and Ryan Taylor from the Herrion era who bought into what Dan is trying to do then you have a pretty good core.
The height is coming with Tanner Robinette (6'8), Iran Bennett (6'10), Jannson Williams (who is RSing right now at 6'7), Darius George (2018 6'6). And then add in Jerrod West (2017 5'11 PG) and Jeremy Dillon (2018 SG, Dillon was the WV Kennedy Award Winner, WV State Football Player Of The Year, and his best sport is basketball).
In the next few years, its going to start getting real fun in Huntington I think. And the thing is, Dan is doing it with the majority of the team coming from WV and regional talent.
