Kentucky basketball lands son of NBA champ, HBCU coach


Coach Mo you should have demanded your son follow you to JSU. Imagine the publicity he would receive. He needs that solid HBCU foundation. The cameras would stay on him at JSU! Big Fish in small pond! This doesn’t say much for your recruiting skills Mo! You couldn’t recruit your own son… I wonder what was the promise Kentucky made? Is Kentucky in your future too? I pray he stays healthy so that after this first year in Kentucky, he comes to where he belongs! TheeILove

His own pappy would not go anywhere near that campus as a student athlete. Mo only came back to advance his coaching career when " those schools" wouldn't hire him. Good luck to the young man and whatever they gave him , but HBCU fans are too star struck & delusional about these selfish/ arrogant Black athletes.

The son may wish to come back to coach someday & J. State or another HBCU may roll out the red carpet for him.

Mo Williams, as a basketball coach, is a loser. His departure to Kentucky is good news for Jackson State.

All I can say is ‘Mo’ Money, Mo’ Problems!!!!

If he could win games instead of losing, there would be higher attendance at the games and a greater budget to pay him. TheeILove

Who is mad at him?

This might lead to him getting another shot elsewhere.

This conference has lost two coaches to becoming assistants at Power House schools. Losing them is bad but what does that say about the SWAC? Folks actually want our coaches. There is a good thing in that. It means someone is looking at this conference.

As Gramfam said Mo came here when nobody else was willing to hire him as a head coach. Now at Rent A player Univerisity-he might get his shot at bigger schools.
 
I told y'all I know peanut (Mo). He uses people. He used Bama State and Jackson state. He did a disservice to both institutions. I'm not surprised of this move. Count it all joy both institutions that Mo is out of this conference.

yes and no - so far, two of the coaches went back to comfort zones they probably sought out themselves as now you gotta hustle to get money in the program if you want to succeed in revenue sharing

not sure if that's a good thing but it should cause places to think twice about how they hire now - P4 coaches already had a chip on their shoulders when they were fired - so imagine now getting ones in who had resources now being told they better beat the bushes in order to be successful

better look for coaches who won with less and the SWAC to them is a gold mine
 
Mo Williams used his son as "barter" to secure the coaching position at Kentucky. Sometimes in life, you use what you have to get what you want. Good luck, Melvin and Mo!

There are more student athletes than actual spots on D1, D2, D3, NAIA, etc teams in general and thus there will always be black players going to non HBCUs. It would not surprise me if that Coach Mo's son was only looking at the big schools with big NIL budgets. I think, generally speaking, that HBCUs and other non big schools are going to have to find those diamonds in the rough to build there team with.
