Khadim Sy

I don’t think we were ever on the radar for either Sy or Williams. Both ended up at Ole Miss

Sy was the guy they coveted.

Someone was in this role in the past but moved on. It is not a new position.

Kyle Carrigee was the last to hold this position.

Any idea what Kyle is doing these days?

Any idea what Kyle is doing these days?

He's working as a project manager with a local company, not sure who. Known Kyle and his family for many years...its an Algiers thing...

Another Coach with no recruiting ties to Louisiana. Nobody on the current staff can walk into a gym in Louisiana and even be recognized as a UL Coach. It is pretty sad.

This is much less of an issue in basketball than it is in football. Though Louisiana high schools have produced some really good players, the state is not really talent rich in that sport. That, and the fact that in hoops AAU coaches have much more influence over prospects than HS coaches do makes instate HS relations less important than one ight think. I agree that it helps, just not very much.
