    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">``I'm not going to win anybody over,'' Casey said Saturday, after supervising a workout with Sean May and Rashad McCants of North Carolina and Joey Graham from Oklahoma State.

    Though there's no guarantee any of them will ever play for Minnesota, Casey made a strong impression on the trio of NBA hopefuls.

    ``He's real genuine. Just very straightforward and a good guy to be around,'' said McCants, who dined with Graham, Casey and Kevin McHale, the team's vice president for basketball operations. ``He has a good glow to him.''

    Graham, who played for coach Eddie Sutton at Oklahoma State, shared stories with Casey, who was an assistant on Sutton's staff at Kentucky in the late 1980s.

    May felt Casey's time had come to be a head coach.

    ``He's definitely been overdue,'' May said. ``He's served his time.''

    Casey, who had been an assistant with the Seattle SuperSonics since 1994, thrives on meticulous preparation. He keeps notebooks from practices and games to use as references.

    ``You can tell that he knows the game and that he teaches the game,'' May said.

    Casey must also figure out, with McHale's input, who is going to be on his staff. With the draft looming on June 28, it's definitely a busy time. </div>

    From what I've heard hes a great guy, plus all he has to do is get a better record than last year, and it will make him look even better

    i don't think just a better recored than last season would make him look great or some'.
    we'll see the changes near the begining of the season but any change comes,i think the goal is to get high, the well desrved exceptions are there,he could make a big team out of the wolves... [​IMG]

    I like that they're looking at Sean May, that's good news.
