I have met Coach Nashif on several occasions. He used to be in my sisters ward in Provo. Was always very nice and cordial to me, even remembered me via my sister each time. He always would chat hoops with me and answer any of my questions. Never once did I feel like I was a bother to him.
I have liked him on the staff and he has done a good job. Plus, Coach Rose likes him enough to keep him on staff for this long and that is a good enough reason for me...
Say what you want, but Nashif is a good coach and a great individual...
