President of Basketball Ops as we speak … head coach tomorrow? Grasp P isn’t ruling it out.
The rap mogul-turned-basketball exec swung by the TMZ Sports activities studio this week and advised Babcock he’s already had a number of schools attempt to lure him away due to how shortly he is turned across the College of New Orleans, the place he serves as assistant coach AND President of Basketball Operations.
“I have so many colleges now looking at me like, ‘Hey, come join our program because of the business side that I have,’” P stated. “But I’m thankful for being where I’m at and just working.”
We requested Miller — who performed within the NBA for a short while — whether or not the applications have been hollering to inquire about Percy the coach, or government.
“I think it’s both. I mean, even they want me to be a head coach. I don’t know. I’m like, I don’t know if I’m ready yet.”
Key phrase, but … and positively down the highway!
“Times are changing,” P stated. “People don’t want the traditional coaches anymore. They want coaches who are going to think outside the box. How are we going to get fans into our stands?”
He pointed to coaches like Kelvin Sampson, who coaches his son, Mercy, at Houston, and Deion Sanders as inspiration — particularly Coach Prime’s strategy to working a program.
“Just the way that he has the fatherhood he has with his program, no matter if you’re winning or losing, he’s gonna be there,” P stated. “He’s going to find corporations and other people to get around them.”
For Grasp P, this isn’t nearly stacking wins — it’s about rising the college itself.
“What I like about it is he brought more students to (Colorado), and that’s what I’m doing with the University of New Orleans,” P stated. “It’s not just about basketball. I want to use this basketball thing because we don’t have a football program.”
“If I use the basketball team to help get more students into the school, then that’s when I feel like we’d have made it. It’s not just about wins and losses.”
And possibly essentially the most telling line of all?
“I’m not just a coach. I’m a teacher.”
