It's not everyday that college basketball players get to play for a former NBA player. But that was the situation Romelle Mansel found himself in when he transferred to HBCU Jackson State last season. Mo Williams had just accepted the head coaching job for the Tigers at the beginning of the 2022-23 season, Mansel's first in Jackson. He already had familiarity with Williams when he was an assistant coach at Cal State Northridge and recruited him in high school at St. Bernard's in the Los Angeles area. It was that familiarity that made it easier for him to transfer to Jackson State.
