Washington Husky Basketball Seattle University / Things You Do a Lot Washington Husky Basketball WASHINGTON HUSKY BASKETBALL SEATTLE UNIVERSITY / THINGS YOU DO A LOT WASHINGTON HUSKY BASKETBALL While John Wooden’s record for NCAA Championships may never be broken, I believe the greatest coaching feat of my lifetime has been Pete Carril winning 500 games, earning 11 NCAA tourney berths WITHOUT a scholarship player!!! I can still remember watching the back-door cut his Princeton Tigers ran to beat the defending National Champions, UCLA, in 1996. And while I am not nearly smart enough to teach the Princeton offense, I have studied almost every other aspect of this great coach and his career. Of all his great teaching points, the one that I have used the most is this: “Be good at the things you do a lot” Maybe it’s the simplistic side of me, but to me that is just about the most brilliant, simple thought ever. So… what things do you have to do a lot to be a good basketball coach, a good basketball player, and a good basketball team. Today, I will share with you the FIVE things that I have done myself, with our teams, and with our players over the last 35 years. THINGS WE DO A LOT AS COACHES WITH OUR TEAM 1) LEAD: All eyes are on you...always. You are actively and inactively doing this at all times with your team. Your words and your actions are heard, observed, and emulated. There are literally 1000s of books to help you with ideas but ultimately you must develop your own style and your own tactics. Email me for my favorites at [email protected] 2) LISTEN: Hearing and listening are two completely separate things. You must listen to your staff, your players, your managers, your athletic trainers, your administration… You surround yourself with good people. So, listen to their ideas, their critiques, their problems. This builds TRUST and TRUSY builds championship cultures and identities. 3) COMMUNICATE: Your ability to do this as a coach has direct reflection on quality of your program and the quality of the people associated with it. In the iY Generation there is still no better way to make someone feel special than a handwritten note. A face to face encounter shows importance. Don’t totally discount the value of the technology we all have access to. Text message, face book, Twitter, and Instagram should all be resources in your arsenal. Follow me @coachneighbors on twitter or “nabes22” on instagram for examples on how I connected with people. 4) MAKE DECISIONS: “The Village Idiot can do 95% of your job, boy. It’s the 5% of the things you have to do that separate you from them.”- Papa Neighbors. I grew up with that advice in my ear from a young age no matter what I was doing. As a coach it couldn’t be more true. You must make the decisions that will mold your team and your program. You get paid to be right more often than you are wrong. It takes experience. If you don't have experience...READ!! Email me for faves on this. 5) PRACTICE: Over the course of a full calendar year, you practice at least 5 times more often as you play a game. You must be good at planning and executing a practice. Every effective practice I have ever planned took at least twice as long to plan than it does to execute. THINGS WE DO A LOT WITH OUR TEAM/PLAYERS 1) REBOUND: Over the course of a game, we have 550-600 rebound chances… a) Get 1, Get 2, Get 3 Rebounding b) High/Low Rebounding c) Triangle Rebounding 2) CLOSE OUT: No matter what defense you play, you will do this A LOT!! a) Sideline Closeout b) Storm Closeouts c) Brooklyn Closeouts 3) TRANSITION DEFENSE: % wise you are in transition D more than 1/2 court a) Tip Drill b) Get Back c) Progressive Fastbreak 4) DEFEND PENETRATION: Every offense relies on ability to break you down a) 30 Second Shot Clock b) N the Paint c) Stop Score Stop 5) DEFEND BALL SCREENS: Few games pass without having to defend these a) see attached PACKLINE PACKET or email me for it THINGS YOU NEED TO DO A LOT TO IMPROVE YOURSELF 1) READ: “The man who chooses not to read is no different from the man who can NOT read”. You MUST make time to read. It’s the only way to gain experience. It’s the only way you will catch up to coaches who have more experience than you!! 2) WRITE: When you put your thoughts on paper and in ink, they be come yours. Your words become your philosophy. If you have every “in your head” it’s not stated. And until you STATE them, it’s simply not yours. Choose a simple topic… Rebounding… Write out your thoughts. You will be surprised how much thinking you will do on it before you are willing to share with someone else!! 3) OBSERVE: Go to clinics. Attend practices. Watch DVD’s. Go on-line and use YOUTUBE or VIMEO. You can spend hours on hours. I have been watching NBA TV Training Camp and getting new ideas every hour. Again you are making the choice to or NOT to learn f rom others. If you already KNOW IT ALL, let me know so I can come observe YOU!! 4) REACH OUT: There are so many resources out there. If you aren’t reaching out to others, you are losing ground to those who do. There are coaches all over the country willing to share. There are blogs. There are Newsletters. There are YOUTUBE channels. All with coaches willing to give back what others have shared with them. As Don Meyer shares “collect all the good ideas whether you use them OR not”. 5) RISK: It takes a lot of courage to be a coach. Don’t settle for the status quo. You must be willing to put yourself “out there” to grow. It’s not easy. You will have some haters. But that’s exactly what you are teaching your players. Model it for them. Be a SUPER MODEL!!

  • Practice Drills
    Weekly Practice Schedule The intent of this practice schedule is not to instruct you on how to organize and conduct your practice sessions, but simply to assist and give you some additional ideas and drills which you man want to implement. The basic goal in the Young American Basketball Program is to teach the kids the basic fundamentals of the game and let the kids have a good time while participating. The skills listed below are basic. As a coach you may want to implement these drills, or use your ideas. BE PREPARED!!! Call all the members on you team roster. Please introduce yourself to the parents of each participant. Advise the parent that you would like the player to be at practice 10 to 15 minutes early. Also inquire if the player can bring a basketball to practice. WEEK ONE – PRACTICE ONE Tell the players your expectations for the upcoming season. Discuss your coaching philosophy and how you will conduct practices. Start with stretching: Make sure you stretch the legs (hamstrings, calves, groins, and etc.), arms, back bends, and neck. - Tell the players your philosophy of basketball. 10 min. – Begin your practice with a dribbling drill. First with the right hand have the players dribble as you count down from 10 to 1. Start slow and pick up the speed. Then do with you left hand. Do this drill about 10 times on each hand.

  • Typical Practice Plan
    TYPICAL PRACTICE PLAN Basketball - Quick Lay Up Drill 10 minutes Purpose: Great drill for working on layups for beginners. Procedure: Place a ball on each lower block of the free throw line. Place one player outside of each ball. Place a player in the middle of the lane three feet behind the balls. On go the player in the middle of the lane goes to the ball on the right hand side of the basket, picks it up and makes a layup, then immediately goes to the ball on the left hand side of the basket, picks it up and makes a layup. The players on each side of the basket get the rebound and place the ball back on the block so that the player in the middle can continue working from side to side making layups. See who many layups each player can make in a minute. Stationary Dribbling Drill 10 minutes Purpose: Helps players develop ball control skills. Procedure: Start with players spread out and facing the coach in two or three lines. Have them begin in ready position dribbling in place with their dominant (Strong) hand while protecting the ball with their non-dominant (weak) hand. Move among the lines and check their balance, make sure their butts are down, backs straight and heads up (not watching the ball). When you shout "change" have them cross the ball quickly over to their other hand. Check their balance, stance, and head again. Anticipation Drill 15 minutes Purpose: This drill will help players develop skills for anticipating the pass.

  • An Analysis of National Football League Fandom and Its Promotion of Conservative Cultural Ideals About Race, Religion, and Gender
    AN ANALYSIS OF NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE FANDOM AND ITS PROMOTION OF CONSERVATIVE CULTURAL IDEALS ABOUT RACE, RELIGION, AND GENDER Mackenzie Ryan A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Dr. Marilyn Motz, Advisor Dr. Esther Clinton © 2012 Mackenzie Ryan All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Marilyn Motz, Ph.D, Advisor In this thesis I address three specific questions that relate to the current state of NFL fandom. To what extent do religion, race, and gender influence various aspects of NFL fandom? How do these issues reflect the dominant culture and major demographics of NFL fans (white and male)? Finally, what implications do my findings have for sports culture, fandom, and popular culture as a whole? To answer these questions, I provide three different case studies of NFL fan activities such as fantasy football, issues of gender, and religious and social ideals which show how NFL fandom reflects a very conservative view of race, gender, and religion that in particular mirrors and supports the conservative backlash that has occurred since President Barack Obama took office in January 2009. For this thesis I examined NFL fan behavior and fan rhetoric on websites and blogs devoted to NFL fandom. In Chapter One, I focus on fantasy football, a popular activity among NFL fans. I examine the practices of fantasy football participants and how NFL players, particularly non-white players, are commodified by fans that play fantasy football. In Chapter Two, I analyze how women are portrayed by and situated within NFL fandom.

  • UNC Clinic Notes Post Player Development Proper Technique for Posting up - Use Elbows (Arm Bars Up!) and Tail to Feel Where Defender Is
    UNC Clinic Notes Post Player Development Proper Technique for posting up - Use elbows (Arm bars up!) and tail to feel where defender is. Drill: Swivel Drill 1 post player, 1 defender (with pad), 1 perimeter passer Player posts up defender with pad. Defender will move back and forth attempting to get around the offensive player. Post player keeps the defender behind by reacting to his movement by feeling with tail and elbows.

Passer passes in to the post player, who will then execute selected post move. (Jump hook, drop step, etc.) Selected Post Moves: Can be used in any combination Ball fake to the middle power dribble drop step baseline layup/dunk Turn Face Fake Shot Turn Face Fake Dribble in Turn Face Dribble Fake Hook Drill: Secondary Jumpshots 2 feeders on the wings, Big Men line up at halfcourt Simulates secondary break Big Man runs to FT line from center court.

  • Eddie Andrist Basketball Products & Services
    Eddie, Congratulations on a great season so far! Keep it up! I am looking forward to more R&J Questions and Answers. We are in our first year using run and jump. We put it in over Christmas break. Our kids like it and understand it but are a step slow at this point. They can see the potential and are very motivated. One thing we are doing beitter is disguising our presses with the hard and soft Red. The soft red is especially effective against teams that try to clear us out. Why am I telling you that! DA! you already know that. Their is obviously a learning curve, more experience will lead to better anticipation, communication and rotation but I think we are on the right track. Thanks and Good Luck! Kurt Rhyner Coach - I've enjoyed your emails about the R&J and your updates - thanks!! My girls just logged the biggest win in our short history (our varsity program is only 2 years old; we used to be an all-boys school) by beating an established team that's in the next division up in our conference (our divisions are done by parity, so we're not 'supposed' to beat teams in the higher divisions). The R&J had them absolutely rattled. Thanks! Looking forward to keeping up with the rest of your season.
