This is a Podcast I did with Keith Grabowski for Coach and Coordinator about The Triple Gun Offense.

In the podcast, we discussed the coaching lessons I learned from Jim Valvano, the difference between knowing how to coach and being a coach, and the four key statistics that correlate with winning.

Show notes: 

• 1:03   Coaching start
• 7:24   Working alongside Jim Valvano (at Iona)
• 9:23   Recruiting for a system
• 12:35   Knowing how to coach vs. being a coach
• 17:50   Leaving Merceyhurst
• 22:36   On pace and tempo
• 25:11   Philosophy on the Xs and Os and the 4 stats that correlate with winning
• 36:28   Announcers love fast-pace offense
• 40:34   Changing a culture is not a quick fix (and why DeMeo spent 45 min with each player)
• 44:02   Recruiting character, not characters
• 46:47   Why DeMeo was harder on his star players
