Tommy Nolan's chances OF
getting the basketball job at
Georgetown University - which
we're rumored as good weeks
before Buddy Jeanette was
ousted-have stirred considerable
talk among his contemporaries.
That which has fallen on these
ears has all been laudatory.
One fellow coach, who will be
nameless, was complaining the
other day that Nolan teaches the
Gonzaga boys something that he
has been unable to teach his
man-to-man defense. Zone ]
can teach, but l can't for the
life of me tell a boy how to play
a good man-for- man.
This same man took it from
there. Nov in that st. Johns
game the other day, Nolan did
something that probably only
another coach would appreciate.
People might think it a little
thing, but who knows that it
didn't win the game. and it Just
showed the foresight the man
has.
"Gonzaga had five point lead
with something like 30 seconds
to play and st. Johns gets a
bucket. Tommy has his kids call
time out right away. He sets up
an out-of bounds play under his
own backboard-four men in a
line-because he knows St
Johns will be in that press
That's what happened, and Con-
zaga won by five"
Julian Colangelo had few re-
marks on that man-to-man de-
tense used by Nolan several days
after his Coolidge outfit lost tc
the Eagles. 55-47. It's Gonzaga' s
best weapon. Colangelo will tel
you without hesitation.
