Ismael Massoud praises Jerome Tang's methods of motivating and pushing his players.
Former Kansas State Wildcats forward Ismael Massoud shared some of Jerome Tang's strongest characteristics as a head coach.
"Coach Tang's greatest strength to me is his accountability level and demand for everyone to bring their best every single day,". "He pushes you to work even harder than you might've already been working and that every day is a new opportunity to be the best version of yourself.
"My message to the fans who might have hit the panic button is that it's never over until the last buzzer goes off and there are no more games left," Massoud said. "College basketball has so much uncertainty, and anything can happen. To count a team out who hasn't played a third of the season would be premature. All it takes is a team to click and get hot at the right time.
Massoud played two seasons for the Wildcats, averaging 6.1 points and 2.2 rebounds. He was a part of the 2022-23 team that made the NCAA Tournament Regional Final.
