It worked great for Larry Brown back in the day, he hired Danny Manning's dad and rode that to a Championship.
Tennessee didn't win big, but they got 4 really good years out of Allan Houston when they hired his dad as the head coach.
I bet it's closer to 50/50 on how well it works out rather than just saying it's a bad idea, based on these 2 recent cases. And in fact at Memphis it was working fairly well til the coach that brought them in left and their dad got pushed aside. -
OK, posted before I read the linked article. Good point that most of these arrangements in the modern era are 1 and done kids and less likely to lead a team to a Championship eventually like Manning did.Comment

Recruiting has changed so much in the one and done era........it's crazy.
But it has also changed so much since the 1960's as well. Read Tark's autobiography. You used to be able to scout whenever you wanted to, call players all day and night. There just weren't any rules.Comment

God help Bill Self and Kansas. This is just tasteless. Tubby is a very well liked man in the profession.
