Mills is very interesting to me ... I feel like Texas leads ... there are also so many family ties to Washington. How long does the recruitment play out? We shall see.

A lot of work to be done for sure. Ogden is GM ... that role is more from the NIL side of things, etc.... RT is the HC and roster construction is his plus the entire staff.

Chris Beard is the top target if the board of regents (or whatever they are called) signs off on it.
