P10 Media Day: Washington State's Ken Bone

| | Comments (0) |

On WSU's scorers:
"On the perimeter, Klay Thompson for sure. If not him, Reggie Moore is a pretty creative scorer. I think he'll be able to put up some numbers. In the post, probably DeAngelo Casto. In my mind he's probably a poor man's Jon Brockman. I love the kid. But he's really not a good scorer yet."

On his career path:
"I spent a lot of time at Seattle Pacific University and really enjoyed it. We had a good school, a good program, had some success. When Lorenzo moved to town and we talked about making the move to the University of Washington, what an ideal time to do it. At that moment, those couple days there, it was an easy decision. Though I didn't expect it ever to happen. Going from there to Portland State, I said I could probably stay there for a long, long time. I want to be in the Northwest, and I want to coach college basketball. If a good opportunity came about in the Northwest, then I could foresee myself doing it."

On landing Rainier Beach product Reggie Moore:
Seattle and the Northwest are primarily my recruiting ties, and most of our staff has those ties. I really feel like there's so much talent in the Northwest. It was really important for us not only to find a kid who could handle the ball, but shoot, we found him in Seattle. For us, there could not be a better scenario.

On his coaching style:
"It would be nice to be able to play faster than we even are going to play this year. I don't really care to take it there without the depth, or the lack of. It would be such a transition. The Bennett's, there system was very slow and it was effective."
