Borgatti Ph.D., Chair ABSTRACT This study was an investigation of the effects of social identity on career progression and career resilience. Particular attention was given to the predictive impact of social identity of membership in an identifiable professional sub-grouping. Using NCAA basketball coaches as an empirical setting, quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted to predict the status of next employer for job seekers who voluntarily changed jobs (n = 282), and the employability resilience of job seekers who were fired (n = 151). Job seekers with the social identity of membership in an identifiable professional sub-grouping (in this empirical setting, defined as membership in a coaching family or coaching tree) were hired for positions with employers of higher status, and exhibited greater employability resilience than was the case for job seekers without such a social identity. Because membership in an identifiable professional sub-grouping signals concise information about the social identity of an individual above and beyond prior performance, network connectivity and status affiliations, it is theorized that individuals with such a social identity are more easily understood, more predictable, and are therefore more valuable in the labor market. Additional career benefits are accrued by individuals who claim their ascribed identity, and by individuals who have social identities characterized as relational actors. Recommendations for future research on social identity of membership in an identifiable professional sub-grouping are offered.

  • 2-1-2 Modified Flex
    2-1-2 Modified Flex Introduction The flex offense is utilized in all levels of basketball, and there have been many variations of this offense. The base cuts of the 2-1-2 Modified Flex is the “Flex Cut” and “UCLA” back screen. As with the other flex offenses, players need to be able to make reads on defensive overplays. Also, as a coach, you will have to decide if you want to “head hunt” the defense when you screen or screen an area and have your cutters rub the screen. Either way, the offensive cutter and the screener are going to have to work together in order to get open looks. If the cutter is not going to allow the screener to get set, you are going to run into some timing issues. Being that this is a continuity offense, all 5 players need to be able to play all the positions on the floor. Therefore, your post players are going to have to be able to play on the perimeter and your guards are going to have to be able to in the post. Allowing time for individual development is therefore vital to the success of this offense. In this offense, every time a player catches the ball, he needs to use the Rim Post Action philosophy. On the catch, players should look to shoot or drive (Rim), dump the ball in the post (Post), or make a ball reversal pass (Action). Spacing is also critical in this offense. You will want to spread the defense so that there is more room for cutting and penetration.

UCONN is all about rebounding & defense. Ball Screen Offensive is all about reading and countering the defense. Like playing motion, you read and react to the defense “Turnover, Don’t practice turnovers.” This is a favorite Lickliter comment during workouts. Terminology with the ball=Low and tight, below the knees. WING ON BALL SCREEN SCREENER/BIGS 1. Low and Wide is what they tell the screener. 2. Screeners back toward the paint/opposite sideline instead toward half court. Gives the ball handler a much better “angle” for driving. 3. Left foot is ON the three point line.

    Press Conference Transcript March 28, 2018 Interim President Dr. Greg Postel “Good afternoon; wow, what a crowd. Thank you so much for joining us here this afternoon. We can’t tell you how thrilled we are to have such an amazing crowd for us to tell a truly wonderful story for the next chapter of the University of Louisville. What an outstanding two-week period this has been for UofL and for Cardinal athletics. Let’s think back over just a few successes from the past two weeks. Our men’s swimming and diving team finished ninth in the NCAA Championship, which is their best finish of all-time. During that championship, Marcelo Acosta earned All-America honors, so special accommodation to him. Our women’s swimming and diving team finished fifth in the country. I will note that Mallory Comerford swam the second fastest 200 freestyle in history, as she won her second NCAA championship, so truly an amazing achievement for her. But there’s more, our women’s basketball team has now earned a coveted spot in the Final Four this week in Columbus, Ohio. And just two days ago, with many of you present, I had the distinct honor to introduce our new athletics director, Vincent Tyra, who will lead our program into the future. Vince took the reins of one of America’s best athletic programs. One that is committed to top performance both on and off the court. Through his work as interim athletic director, he has shown that he will continue to push for that level of excellence.
