Adam Stanco's in-depth interview with Kerry Keating, the former Santa Clara head coach and assistant coach at Seton Hall, Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, Appalachian State, Tulsa, Tennessee, and UCLA. Keating reveals details about how he recruited Russell Westbrook, what he saw in the future NBA star when he was simply a little known recruit, who Westbrook truly is as a person, and the relationship between Westbrook and Kevin Durant. They discuss recruiting for Ben Howland, including the remarkable recruiting tales of how he signed UCLA legends Kevin Love and Darren Collison. Plus, Keating explains how a fantastic coaching journey paved the way for him becoming one of the first video coordinators in college basketball and privately seeing Tim Duncan's talents before the rest of the world did. He also unearths the challenges of being a head coach at the Division I level.
