You need a name change to "John Wooden's Ghost".

Well done, Coach.

congrats coach


I kinda miss playing junior high ball. we had an ex varsity assistant coaching us who had a very fluid flex motion offense that they ran in the high school while he was there. I think people overlook how important game plans are at that level

Apparently we saw nothing but 2-3 zone in 6th grade and 7th so we didn't really bother putting in a man-to-man offense. Besides, the man-to-man at the high school these kids will go to is a complex motion system with a bunch of rules.

Of course we saw man-to-man tonight. Luckily, the 6'1 kid who I said earlier needed to get a little more dog in him... He's figuring it out before my eyes and tonight it was pretty fricking impressive.

You played for Thibodaux?

We battled it out with STM quite a few times, always great games. I graduated from Ellender in 95', didnt play basketball but I was at every game.

oh shite, I'll have to watch myself on here from here on out.

And I agree, it was a great game. You guys are well coached and have some good pieces to work with.

Great perspective. Good luck this season.

I played for Danny Broussard at STM. 1996 would have been a little before my time,but we battled Ellender even in my day. Scott always had his teams tough and ready to get after your arse...

Sorry Broussard is what I meant. STM was always tough.

ETA. Ernest Brown LSU played basketball at LSU was our coach.
Then St. Clair Davis, then Scott Gautreaux. I think Cornell Scott is there now.

It seems like you're much more of a Ron Swanson-type coach than an Andy Dwyer.
