A coach is a coach. All should demonstrate an interest and be involved in the process of developing young players. All should contribute positively to the development of the game and coach education in this country. This happened big time in Australia with American and Australian coaches taking basketball forward into the major league. Couldn't we all learn something from this approach and do something positive, rather than just blow off hot air.
Actions speak louder than words.
In response to 'Oxford Blues', Chris, players are eligible for the WUG team for one year after graduation. Coaches at the Pro level all know that that goes with the territory. The situation here however is totally unacceptable, especially when you compare it to every other country in Europe. The truth is that ANY UK player who wants to make a future in bball, will play in the US college system. Because the unheralded and unranked University of Central Florida are beating BBL teams in their pre-season tour.
