 He is highly qualified to teach and coach the NBA style as he's coached there at the highest levels for over a quarter of a century.  He may be the best coach of defense in the college game.  He clearly commands respect from HS NBA level prospects with his background, and he has the skill to relate to people in general especially young men who aspire to play in the NBA.  

Yep... Next time a kid considers UK "because Coach Cal will prepare me for the pros" someone needs to whip this out...

He couldn't even prepare the pros for the pros...

I was thinking of the squid when I wrote my post, but I refrained from a comparison.  As you point out CMW has the NBA background and record that the squid doesn't.  Plus I think CMW's personality and ability to relate to kids is a big advantage for him.

Not to mention Woodson has success as a college and pro player and other traits recruits can relate to that Calimari doesn't

6'11" center Somto Cyril (2024) offered by Indiana this week.  #22 player in the class. 

I question if he'll ever play in college, but here ya go.

From Twitter:

"2024 five-star Somto Cyril, a 6-11, 250-pound big man from Tennessee, has signed a scholarship with the Overtime Elite league, retaining his college eligibility."

At 250lbs, he still looks kind of skinny.

6'11" Somto Cyril with an official visit this weekend (Nov 11-13, the same days as Dylan Harper).

Cyril is #25 in his 2024 class (the #4 center), and may reclassify to 2023.

Doubt he's going after Kaleb Glenn.  He committed to Louisville over a year ago and signed with them last Friday.
