Vanderbilt basketball coach Jerry Stackhouse using vast experience to rebuild the Commodores

Posted Oct 23, 2019
New Vanderbilt coach Jerry Stackhouse wasn’t going to take just any job. The former UNC star played in the NBA for many years and then transitioned into the world of coaching. It was a seamless transition, as he led Raptors 905 to an NBA D-League (now G-League) title during the 2016-17 season. He would land with the Memphis Grizzlies as an assistant. (Clutch Points)
