Could Master P transition from President of Basketball Operations to head coach? Master P is open to the possibility.
The rap mogul turned basketball executive visited the TMZ Sports studio this week and shared with Babcock that he has received interest from multiple colleges due to his success at the University of New Orleans, where he serves as assistant coach and President of Basketball Operations.
“I have so many colleges now looking at me like, ‘Hey, come join our program because of the business side that I have,’” P stated. “But I’m thankful for being where I’m at and just working.”
We inquired with Miller — who had a brief NBA career — about whether the programs were interested in Percy as a coach or an executive.
“I think it’s both. I mean, even they want me to be a head coach. I don’t know. I’m like, I don’t know if I’m ready yet.”

The key word here is yet … and he is definitely interested in the future!
“Times are changing,” P remarked. “People don’t want traditional coaches anymore. They want coaches who are going to think outside the box. How are we going to get fans into our stands?”
He cited coaches like Kelvin Sampson, who coaches his son, Mercy, at Houston, and Deion Sanders as inspirations — particularly Coach Prime’s approach to managing a program.
“Just the way that he has the fatherhood he has with his program, no matter if you’re winning or losing, he’s gonna be there,” P explained. “He’s going to find corporations and other people to get around them.”
For Master P, this endeavor goes beyond just accumulating wins; it’s about enhancing the university itself.
“What I like about it is he brought more students to (Colorado), and that’s what I’m doing with the University of New Orleans,” P noted. “It’s not just about basketball. I want to use this basketball thing because we don’t have a football program.”
“If I use the basketball team to help get more students into the school, then that’s when I feel like we’d have made it. It’s not just about wins and losses.”
And perhaps the most revealing statement?
“I’m not just a coach. I’m a teacher.”
