Former Kansas Jayhawks All-American and All-Big Eight Point Guard, as well as Brooklyn Nets and Orlando Magic head coach Jacque Vaughn has been hired by Bill Self, joining the University of Kansas men's basketball coaching staff as an assistant coach.

Breaking down why this is such a good hire for Self and KU, as they bolster their coaching acumen even after losing long-time AC Norm Roberts to retirement.

At the same point in time, could Vaughn be positioning himself to be the NEXT head coach of the Jayhawks once Bill Self retires or his time is done in Lawrence? How does this affect that possibility for Roy Williams' former star player, and would it be a good idea to make him head coach in waiting or to be the future head man?
