He should get into coaching. He has a great personal story that I think would be attractive to recruits, and I suspect he would be good a developing players, particularly in teaching defensive skills.

Can he teach attitude? IMHO that was his standout characteristic.

Jorge and Jerome Randle. My favorite Cal backcourt. Tough as nails, under the radar recruits, Pac-12 POY's, and got their degrees.

Has any other player won POY and Defensive POY in the same year in a power conference? No matter the answer to that question, that achievement is impressive and is reflective of how others across the league saw him as a competitor. Incredible if you ask me.
