I get people are laughing like it would be a terrible thing...but it would be about the same as what they have. Kenny would get some recruits from his connections alone. Kids respect Kenny Smith even if he isn't known for being a dominant star player. He's got tons of respect. I bet he would do a decent job.
I think everyone overdoes the good coach bad coach thing. Can you recruit talented players and get them to play hard for you is about the most important thing Imo. Starts with getting talented players.
