cujaysfan Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 don't give up on him, yet - he's still a young coach and it seems that there are bright things in store. that being said - were i in charge - the following would happen. brad - you are going to hire a coach to handle the offense...the kids play great defense - but we need some new ideas and creativity offensively - al maguire had someone handle his offense for him - so don't be offended. mike davis' best season at IU was when he had dan panaggio do his game plans and offensive coaching - so this isn't something that isn't heard of these days either...dan then went on to nba and is now at marquette. there are definitely some guys out there... i would also encourage attending some coaching clinics - and arrange a "coaching mentor" - spoon would be perfect. his availability, association with slu, and most importantly - in game coaching acumen (read ability to adjust) make some sense. the extension CL gave was premature. i think brad can get over the hump - but he needs to know that "discernable progress" is not enough. at some point winning (the right way - which he does) is ultimately the only thing that matters. remember - duke wanted to fire K after four years. brad is at a critical point in his career at slu - he either gets over the hump - or he ends up a head coach at some div III school.

BradFan Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Hmmm....memo to Brad. Go out and learn how to coach. Thanks for the advice. I'm glad you were willing to share it. Would this advice have been just as valid the day after the Charlotte game??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basketbill Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 The question I would ask...... Brad in life we all learn from evaluating ourselves periodically in sports, in school, in business and as parents. As a coach looking back on this season, what were your (not the teams) strengths, what were your weakness and how will you address your weakness between now and October?
