There's a lot of reasons to believe Luke Loucks could have great success at FSU even though he's never coached in college or been a head coach. He's well-regarded in NBA circles, learned under the likes of Steve Kerr (and Leonard Hamilton) and understands what it takes to win at FSU as an alum and 2012 ACC Champion point guard for the Seminoles.

FSU's new head coach may not have college coaching experience but he more than makes up for that in other ways.
