Same reason I said it an hour before that.
He's everyone's Nike guy. If you want a Nike endorsement deal, your path crosses his, eventually. 100% relationships, and with the BEST players in the sport, as Nike is always on top with that stuff.
It's like hiring a super agent like Pelinka or Rose. Same logic. The idea is that he can get these dudes excited about coming here based on previous, long-standing relationships. It's not crazy. Pretty outside of the box, but sill on track with what has been helping some other teams recently.
That's the reason you make this hire, I think, though I'm sure Harrison has many other fine qualifications.
