Great story about hitting the ground running at Providence: https://theathletic.com/4680030/2023/07/11/kim-english-providence-mens-basketball-big-east/

An excerpt:
"Kim English, 34 years old, Big East coach. Does he have to prove something here?

“No,” English says. “That’s not my focus. I would follow that up with: to whom? Do you have an answer? Prove it to whom?”

Whomever. The world.

“Who is that?” English says with a laugh. “Every person?”

Fine. Stipulated. Why is it important for Providence’s new coach to be great at this?

“Our guys,” English says. “Our motivation is having each one of our players reach their absolute, full potential. Put Providence College basketball in the best light it can possibly be. And focus on that, right? If our group connects at an incredible level, and plays hard and tough and together, and they’re doing it with respect and integrity — I am 100 percent OK with the outcome.”"
