This is a significant development for the Sacramento State men's basketball program to have Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal as their general manager. With his experience and success in the NBA, O'Neal brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the program. It's also interesting to see former NBA players like Mike Bibby and Shaquille O'Neal taking on coaching and management roles at the college level, which could help elevate the program and attract top talent. It will be exciting to see how O'Neal's involvement impacts the Hornets and if they can improve their performance in the coming seasons.
