Skip was coaching the Panthers at the Rumble too. He seemed to coach a good game from when I saw him.
Yeah, he takes it seriously. He's better than most.
From a strategy perspective, he's still learning. One would think the NY kids had never seen a backdoor cut or a curl play off of a screen in the Final Four loss yesterday to the Iowa Barnstormers. When Iowa made their run in the first half, he didn't stop the momentum, by calling a time out and adjusting his defense. He just kept yelling "get low" and "play tough." Ultimately, he got a T, after the ref said he threatened him and felt he pulled the don't you know who I am card. They smoothed things over later.
The Iowa team, which has one high-major player, lost to Oakland (Josiah Turner, Jabari Brown, Brandon Ashley, Nick Johnson, Kyle Wiltjer) in the Championship.
