White has been on the bench for one of the most successful runs in program history, including a Final Four appearance in 2021 and Elite Eight and Sweet 16 appearances. He has been on the fast track for a head coaching job, turning down offers in recent years, Sampson has often said. White starred as a point guard for two seasons on Sampson’s teams at Oklahoma, helping the Sooners reach the Final Four in 2002.

Congrats Quannas. Well deserved, IMO.

Does anybody know how this changes his responsibilities with the team?

That’s a good question but I’m sure it included a raise

I wonder if it is more title and pay. Not that it isn’t deserved, I just don’t know how you give him more responsibility.

I also wonder if there will be some more promotions in the staff.

Does that mean hes positioned ahead of Kellen?

no, i think it’s a career thing…he’ll be gone next year to a head coaching job elsewhere

Can there be more than one associate head coach? I thought KC Beard was associate head coach.

Happy for Quannas, paranoid to think there’s more to this that involves a Sampson.

I’m a little surprised Quannas is stil with the program. I would’ve thought someone would come calling. Congrats to him though!

Same here.

Shows he’s special assistant to the head coach.

He gone

Probably both. We are very lucky to have such quality assistant coaches for such a long time. It’s a tribute to CKS.
