The new head coach is Jose Fernandez out of South Florida.
He was there 25 seasons.
He helped build USF into a consistent postseason threat.
He has also worked with mid-range shooter Courtney Williams at USF, who's now in the WNBA.
We all know her.
Good friends with Gino Auriemma.
So first, Angel, let's just...
Let's just start with like the number one draft pick that we have in the building here at Good Follow Show.
You've lived that life as a former number one pick.
What does Paige Beckers need right now in year two from her head coach?
Yeah, absolutely.
And I think you made a number of great points there.
But one thing that Coach Fernandez is being tasked with is he's kind of rebuilding a culture there and an expectation.
And there's going to be a lot of youth in Dallas.
So this isn't like he's coming into a team with returning champions.
Huge expectations, huge big-name veteran players.
Like, this Dallas season was mostly about a whole bunch of rookies and young players, unexperienced players, and Paige Beckers at the center of it all.
The one thing we know is that Dallas is building around Paige and is likely to be young.
And I actually think bringing a college coach in...
you know, could be the right voice to help young players and bring them along.
