One of benefits that both Golesh and Rahim will have over former coaches like Holtz, Scott, Gregory... is that they are both younger, hip, full of energy, and relatable to recruits. Don't know if that will lead to more wins, but hopefully it leads to better recruiting.

edit: guess Scott is around the same age, but no one could say he was hip, and I mean no offense

xCOA was one of the nation's top recruiters once, too. Just saying...

We're all aware of how Kentucky has dominated the recruiting scene since the arrival of John Calipari and his team. The CATS have led the nation this year and last. It's also...

"Younger, hip, full of energy, and relatable to recruits" was the part I was linking to "too."

I understand the point, but this is very different. COA (and Scott) were awarded and well regarded for recruiting only. Both at premier programs with national brands that do a lot of the recruiting for you. Their true coaching ability was always a question. 

Rahim is well regarded (and now awarded) for his ability to coach first and foremost, while also proving he has what it takes to rebuild a program without a national (or even local) brand. 

We will see what the results end up being, but I see Scott and COA as more similar than anything to do with Rahim

Just saw the video, and I must say I am verry impressed. I take back the part of him not being hip. Coach Scott is one cool cat.😁
