Don't ever forget what a great player Pat (Head) Summitt was for the University of Tennessee at MARTIN. Imagine if UTM had kept her as a coach, instead of UT stealing her. I don't think she did any cheerleading while playing though, just does it to show Pearl she has spirit too.

QUOTE(jrdcfan @ Mar 21 2007 - 12:19 PM) 826419456[/snapback]True. Players have to be pushed to relize their true potential and I don't feel there is enough of that. I feel too many players and teams go through the system never realizing their true potential.

 

CANT imagine where that would be happening...

My coach in high school, Coach Whited, didn't play high school basketball. He won two state titles & was an excellent coach. Basketball ability is a plus, but any coach who is going to excel will have to work hard @ a level that high school / college playing experience will soon have little impact on their coaching performance.

This is a very good post and brings everything in to perspective when all of the attributes needed are considered.

So as long as you know the game, work hard, (both Coach & Players), do what you think is best for the players and team, treat each player with respect and give them the chance they deserve, and have winning seasons I'm sure the players and community will support you. My opinion even if you played it does not make you a good coach and neither does having a degree.

 

 

Charlie Weis, the head football coach at Notre Dame, never played football.

    • I heard they have most of their team coming back. Who is the next coach?  Also, what about Chester County? That one has been open for a while.  Gibson County also???
    • Marion had no answer for groves last year and he’s added a lot of weight since last year already. And the other groves Marion couldn’t block…he’ll be back.
    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.
