As we close in on the start of the assistant coach s fashion fair there has been growing concern among under studies as to their potential first round opponent. DO NOT pair me up against Stephanie Ready, said UMES assistant James Wilhelmi. Please put me in another bracket. Coppin State s lovely assistant Stephanie Ready has MEAC assistants very nervous.
Nobody wants to run the risk of being knocked off by a woman.
I want no part of that, said one assistant who wished to remain nameless. I would never be able to live down a loss to a female. Baylor assistant Brian O Neill said that he was the talk of the town when he cracked the Fashion Power Index, back in January, while George Mason s Mike Gillian was elated by the fact that his ranking has become part of the game day notes. With the unveiling of the 32-coach field just around the corner it seems as though there has been a push by under studies to make sure they are getting consideration. Sports Information Directors have joined the frenzy as well.
