It was announced this evening that Raphael Chillious will be replacing Cameron Dollar on Lorenzo Romar's staff.

Chillious was formerly the coach at the South Kent School, where he coached current Huskies Isaiah Thomas and Matthew Bryan-Amaning. He brings with him a wealth of experience coaching and developing young players.

Will this be an improvement over Dollar? Perhaps. It's probably best to take a wait-and-see approach because of the higher demands placed upon college coaches. Will Chillious be able to develop players as well as Dollar did? I think so. Will he be able to hit the ground running in the recruiting game and aid in bringing top level talent to the University of Washington as Dollar did? I'm not so sure, but I'm optimistic.
