COACHING U 2013 (PART I)

Here are just a few gems I grabbed at Coaching U Live in Maryland this summer.  And I say just a few gems because I took two spiral notebooks full of notes.

KEVIN EASTMAN
"To get better, you go until."

Paint Consequences
1. Block
2. Charge
3. Hard foul

"Fouling negates hustle." -Rick Pitino

"Don't put a ceiling on anything."

"A breech of culture must be met head on."

"You need to know that the malcontents are the best recruiters -- and they will go after young players."

Living in the TRUTH
1. Live it
2. Tell it
3. Take it

"Preparation trumps pressure."

GANNON BAKER
"You must be involved in solution based teaching, not just drills to fill a workout."

"Rebounding is pursuit, passion and position."
