[QUOTE="bigtiny, post: 1299438, member: 7651"] I've always thought of basketball assistants as mainly recruiters, vs football assistants who drive major aspects of the resulting offense and defensive schemes. If Underwoods's Xs and Os were what drove the results at OSU and SA, assistant hires aren't going to undue him. He probably had to give Walker a lions share of the cash and the main assistant title - leaving him vulnerable to OSU on Evans. OSU likely had a ton of cash left over after elevating an assistant to head coach and not having to compete on the open markets for their HC. [/QUOTE]
