The general consensus was that Andre LaFluer was a home run hire. Assuming Coach Jeter is the next addition to the staff what is the opinion on the hire? Jeter has 11 years as a D-1 head coach and his assistant and associate head coaching experience is extensive as reflected from wiki:

Assistant coach
Jeter worked under Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan for 10 of his 11 years as an assistant coach, spending one year under Mike Deane at Marquette.

He has been part of nine conference championships and two national championships as a coach. In his 11 years as an assistant coach, his teams also posted a 245–85 combined record, a .743 winning percentage. In league play his teams had a 126–46 record.

UW–Platteville
While Jeter was an assistant coach at Platteville, the Pioneers had a 108–6 overall record, two NCAA Division III titles and four conference championships. During the time he was an assistant coach at UW–Platteville he also coordinated the program's academic, recruiting and scouting efforts. He was the director of Bo Ryan basketball camps, and was an admissions coordinator at the school.

Marquette
Jeter was the assistant coach at Marquette from 1998 to 1999. While there, one of the team's achievements was defeating #4 nationally ranked University of Cincinatti.

Milwaukee
Jeter was the assistant coach at Milwaukee for two seasons (1999–2001) under Bo Ryan. While there, UWM recorded its first two .500 seasons since the early 1990s, an improvement in the Horizon League. The Milwaukee team also made it to the semi-finals in the league tourney for the first time in school history.

Wisconsin
Jeter spent four years at Madison as Bo Ryan's assistant coach and then associate head coach from 2001 to 2005. He was the Badgers' lead recruiter, while also coordinating Wisconsin's scouting and academic efforts. While at Wisconsin, they won two regular season Big Ten championships and a Big Ten Tournament title. They also made four straight NCAA Tournament appearances, including berths in the Sweet 16 in 2003, losing to Kentucky, and the Elite Eight in 2005, losing to North Carolina, who eventually became the national champion.
