Staff How to handle Off the court issues On the court issues Recrui?ng logs Recrui?ng grid Recrui?ng map Recrui?ng schedule for the next 6 months, 3 months, 1 month, 2 weeks, upcoming week How to handle game situa?ons:
Special situa?ons One coach in charge each ?me whistle blows during the game Foul-‐who was the foul on, how many toward the team foul amount Timeouts taken (mark ?me on clock when ?meout taken) Clock situa?ons-‐shot clock (?me remaining on shot clock) Make sure clock stopped and is accurate Do not talk or make comments to the refs during game ac?on or while the ball is live. Never blame outcome on the officials to family, friends or team Speaking with Boosters and Alumni
Know the rules and who you can and can not comment on during a conversa?on. Use general terms when speaking about a par?cular recruit
Take every name or recommenda?on through phone call, lecer, email, neighbor or person on the street. Make them feel special –grateful they are wiling to help. Recrui?ng is the lifeblood of the program, but our team comes before recrui?ng. The rela?onships with our players are the most important job we have. Recruit, recruit, recruit-‐but spend as much ?me thinking about our present team and how to help them improve on and off the court. Spend ?me on the phone, wri?ng lecers and in face to face conversa?on. Social media and on the phone with buddies will not help us get players. Can be an asset, but not the main cog. Understand how to get players here-‐Hard Work, Rela?onships, Follow Up and Belief in the Dream. Sell the dream Believe the dream If you come to the point you don’t believe the dream you need to do something else. Work for the University 1st, the Athle?c Department 2nd, the Head Coach 3rd. All 3 important. Each decision you make affects these three groups.
Come to work each day with a way to make things becer We catch young men at the best ?me and most vulnerable ?me of their lives. We have to be at our best to care of them. You must take care of yourself
