Doesn't feature any roster talk (hopefully Chad can have that discussion with him some time before the season starts), but learning more about his background with OKC definitely gives more insight into how he'll be successful in this current role.

This isn't about Corey but we've brought an Kelly Peters on board to be Special Asst to the Head Coach. Interesting background in that he worked in the G-League with Delaware and Santa Cruz. Chances are he may have been there when Jarron Cumberland and Jacob Evans were on those respective teams.

That puts an "assistant" / "staff member" at the same number as players. Each player can have his own personal staff. Coaching in the NIL/ transfer portal wild west is a lot different than what it was in the 90's. CWM is leaving himself without excuse for this upcoming season.

Corey Evans will remain the GM under Coach Calhoun, per Joe Tipton of On3

(Chad Brendel had been saying it was likely, noting he was on a multi-year contract)

This is great news, guys! I think Evans and Calhoun working together are going to construct a dynamic roster! Let's GO!!

This will benefit Calhoun as Evans most likely has a detailed list of targets. Maybe something CJC hasn't had before.
