Description

Amir Abdur-Rahim is entering his fourth-season as the head coach at Kennesaw State. One of 13 children, Abdur-Rahim's coaching journey started as a graduate assistant at Murray State. After four more stops, he ultimately ended up getting his first head coaching job at Kennesaw. Abdur-Rahim talks about growing up in a basketball family, the one coaching move he wishes he hadn't made, and why a future #1 NBA draft pick could have kept him from becoming a head coach.Each Friday, Jeff Bidwell talks with a current or former Division I college basketball coach about their professional path. There are no overnight success stories in college coaching. We'll talk about the sometimes decades-long journey from the moment they wanted to get into coaching up to that first news conference introducing them as a Division I head coach.Watch on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Dg7is4-Q9sFollow the show on Twitter: @AKAJeffBidwell
