As he ought to be, assistant coach Brian Michaelson will change Mark Few as Gonzaga’s head coach each time he decides to retire. Hopefully that gained’t be for some time however Michaelson is the one proper reply for the job.
This comes straight from the mouth of Mark Few when talking with Jon Rothstein on the School Hoops In the present day podcast. Once more, Mark Few has no plans to name it quits anytime quickly. A minimum of not earlier than he wins that coveted nationwide championship.
Mark Few spoke with Dan Dickau on the Gonzaga Nation podcast and solely had excessive reward for the very long time assistant. “He’s skilled. He’s a terrific recruiter. He has nice relationships with our gamers. He understands the entire thing.”
Michaelson has lived and breathed Gonzaga basketball for almost all of his profession. He was a walk-on from 2001-2004 till he was awarded a scholarship and named the 2004-2005 staff’s co-captain in his senior season. He then moved up Gonzaga’s administrative/teaching ranks and gained the respect of Mark Few (administrative assistant from 2008-2011, Gonzaga’s Director of Basketball Operations from 2011-2013, Gonzaga assistant coach from 2013 to the current).
This can be a dwelling run alternative for the legend that’s Mark Few given Michaelson’s expertise beneath his regime. Tommy Lloyd was the earlier selection to exchange Few however Arizona snagged him up. Hopefully no different convincing gives in faculty basketball finish as much as poaching Michaelson.
