Monday Morning Mock Draft: Let’s Coach ‘Em Up!

(this fucking guy shouldn’t even be an undrafted free agent)

This week we’re drafting coaches.  I got the idea while watching the Red Sox steal 9(!) bases on the Yankees while Aaron Boone did nothing about it, other than keep pulling receivers out of his overworked bullpen and seeming surprised when it doesn’t work out.  If you have a team with Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, and Gerritt Cole, you should have a good manager to oversee the team.  The Yankees do not, which is why, no matter how much fun they are to watch in the regular season, they’ll once again fall short in the post-season.  Drives me nuts.

So this week we draft coaches we think can get the job done.  You can pick any sport, but the coach does have to actually exist.  Pretend Bernard Gilkey is indeed a legend, but he is not eligible for this draft.

With the first pick I will take the reigning, defending, NCAA men’s basketball champion coach, UConn’s own Dan Hurley.  My being a hug homer has nothing to do with it (yes it does and also HA-HA, fuck you Kentucky and the Lakers)

How can you not love that face?

The rest of you are on the clock.
