rjal Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Not familiar with him. Background? Former assistant at NDA and Shooting stars AAU coach for awhile and was the TMC assistant who took in Sydney Moss causing them to have to vacate their national championship. I am not sure what he has been up to most recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEdge Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 So who got the better end of the deal, Holy Cross or NDA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what he has been up to most recently. He was the man in charge of the basketball program at town and country sports complex in Wilder when it opened 2 years ago. Not sure if he still there or not. I believe he played ball at TMC as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter2002 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Now that it is all done, I am curious to know what you heard in the first place to make you think "WOW" I knew about the hire. I was just surprised that he even went for the job and they actually hired him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paNDA Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 When my daughter played AAU with him as coach they were about 100 and 2. He can coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panda- I respect you and your opinions and agree with you that he is a good coach. He is a great teacher of the fundamentals and I would trust him with my team any time. However, in general I do not like the comparison of HS coaching to AAU coaching. High school 90% of the time you are dealt a hand and you have to play it. AAU 100% of the time you select the kids that best fit your style and needs, those kids are easy to coach and produce results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A father who taught Jerry the fundamentals. Strong desire win but the patience to teach. Girls seem to really enjoy his style. Look forward to see how it plays out.
