That was great. The most I've ever heard him say and he seemed to be a fountain of knowledge and passion for the game.

If we only had more media who could elicit these types of responses with knowledgeable questions about the things players/coaches are genuinely interested in talking about.

Just some of my takeaways

  • He said Rivera was a very hands off coach and let the coordinators and assistants do their thing, only stepping in when needed.
  • Rivera sat down with him 1 on 1 and watched tape of Brian Ulracher to help him with some issues he was having as a rookie
  • Rivera would have low impact practices on purpose to help the team stay healthy
  • He praises McDermott a lot, does not mention Wilks or Washington once
  • McDermott helped him learn methods to scout and study film better. Under McD they would keep entire notebooks full of notes on specific coordinators systems
  • He apparently really did resign just so he could go hunting and fishing
  • You can tell he does not like analytics people, or is at least skeptical of them

The last statement gives additional insight as to why he resigned.

    • I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
    • Here are a couple of links.   Wish I had seen this before this past weekend as appears they had a big fundraiser event last week. https://sites.google.com/vollminadvisory.com/thewilmingtonarenaproject/home https://www.wwaytv3.com/wilmington-native-leads-push-for-new-multi-use-venue-to-attract-professional-hockey-team/ https://portcitydaily.com/latest-news/2025/07/13/wilmington-nonprofit-fundraising-for-10k-seat-arena-to-lure-pro-ice-hockey-team/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577145613291    
    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄
