  • Former Indiana Assistant Steve Mcclain Brings a 'Relentless' Style to UIC
    Former Indiana assistant Steve McClain brings a 'relentless' style to UIC UIC head men's basketball coach Steve McClain watches his team practice at the UIC Pavilion. (Jose M. Osorio / Chicago Tribune) Teddy Greenstein Contact Reporter Chicago Tribune New coach Steve McClain's goal for UIC basketball: "Gonzaga of the Midwest." Practice is in session at the UIC Pavilion. The only thing that moves faster than the ball is first-year coach Steve McClain. Wearing an untucked gray T-shirt and black sweats, McClain pinballs around the court, barking at and demanding maximum effort from his players. The whistle blows. The Flames will play mainly man-to-man defense once the season starts Nov. 13, but now they're using a 1-3-1 zone, with senior forward Jake Wiegand in the middle. "Jake!" McClain calls out. "You've got to move! Fan out! Find somebody!" Wiegand understands, later saying: "He wants me to fly around. If you're going to mess up, go hard all the time and it will cover up the mistakes." The frantic pace continues for two hours. "You can't come to practice without energy," sophomore forward Tai Odiase says. "You can't fake it either. He'll see right through that." Asked to describe a McClain-run practice, Wiegand replies: "Oh, man. Some would see it as crazy. But it's the right kind of crazy." The right kind of crazy? McClain can live with that. "At times, it's chaos," he says. "I want chaos." 'A relentless recruiter' McClain is so enthusiastic about UIC, he's neglecting his plate of mini waffles and fruit.

  • This Is Cowboy Basketball
    This is Cowboy Basketball " What it means to me to put on a Cowboy uniform and play in the Arena-Auditorium is kind of indescribable. To play at the only Division I university in the entire state, and not only that but to play at the same place both of my parents played, is amazing. I get goose bumps just walking into the Arena-Auditorium for practice, not even a game. I can't tell you how great I feel about putting on the Brown and Gold and having the opportunity to be a Cowboy. It is truly amazing and I thank God everyday that I get to be a part of something bigger than me."” Adam Waddell, Cody, Wyo. Sophomore Center The 1943 NCAA Champion Wyoming Cowboys. WINNING TRADITION owboy Basketball tradition is a rich one, including an NCAA National Championship team, a former coach who is WINNING a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, an All-American who is credited with one of the greatest innovations in C the history of the game and one of the most memorable players in NCAA history. In 1943, the University of Wyoming was led to the NCAA Championship by legendary coach Everett Shelton. Shelton’s 1943 Cowboy squad defeated Georgetown in the NCAA Championship game in Madison Square Garden. Two nights later, also in Madison Square Garden, the Cowboys earned the right to call themselves undisputed National Champions as they defeated that year’s NIT Champion, St. John’s University, in a game benefi tting the Red Cross. In 1982, Coach Shelton’s memory was immortalized with the highest honor in basketball — induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfi eld, Mass.

  • Making Your Career in Basketball – Case Studies the US College Experience
    Making Your Career In Basketball – Case Studies The US College Experience Making Your Career in Basketball Case Studies Making Your Career In Basketball – Case Studies How to use the case studies? Basketball is a sport that presents many opportunities, throughout the world, to play professionally or to combine study with playing. It is certainly possible to have a career as a professional basketballer, although as with any athlete, there is a limit as to how long this career can last. The very best Australian athletes may make enough in their basketball career to “set themselves up for life”, however for most players, a career after basketball needs to be found. These case studies are in two parts: Australians who are currently on scholarship at a US College; Australians who have played professionally. The case studies will highlight the experiences these players have had, and the information they wish they knew earlier, but probably learnt the “hard way” (through experience). The case studies are not a guarantee that you will have the same experience as these players, they are simply some information that may assist you as you determine what your career will be. Basketball Australia would particularly like to thank each of the athletes for taking the time to provide information about their experiences. We would also like to thank Ian Stacker for his work in compiling the information from student-athletes at US Colleges. Don’t be afraid to set your goals and then to do the hard work that is required to achieve them! © Basketball Australia, 2009 Making Your Career In Basketball – Case Studies The US College Experience The US College Experience Many Australian athletes play in US Colleges, where the emphasis is on being a “student-athlete” (i.e.
