What's up with this?http://www.midland.edu/athletics/basket ... hedule.php
This is just another example of the goldmine Doh is sitting on top of & not taking advantage of. Let's hope that in Oct 2009 the freakin top talent in JUCO ball is scrimmaging @ Moody & Crum & not @ Baylor, TCU or Wylie! When you look @ the attachment you will see the schedule for Midland JC, a national powerhouse JUCO progam. Look @ the top of the schedule & you will notice that their scrimmage schedule is also listed. Take a look @ the 2 scrimmages @ Baylor & the scrimmage @ TCU. Also, take a look @ the other scrimmage location, Wylie. WTF, Wylie? Please tell me why this wasn't @ Moody & or Crum. These teams that were @ these scrimmages are some of the best JUCO programs in the country. Chipola is # 1 & is loaded with 4 of the top 20 players in the country. Midland#4, Collin County #17, Coffeyville #30. Also, take a look @ the Midland HC bio. Compare his resume to someone like Farmer or Lutz, our recruiting coordinator. I've got alot of questions about the staff he has assembled around him. http://www.midland.edu/athletics/basket ... asland.php
[quote="Pony_Fan"]they look impressive. when does the coach jump to Div 1?/quote]
This is the type of coach I would want as a top assistant or recruiting coordinatior sitting next to my HC. You don't see a JUCO HC jump to the D1 HC level much but Ronnie Arrow @ South Alabama has done it successfully. Prior to South Alabama, Arrow served as head coach at San Jacinto Junior College from 1977-87. He tallied an impressive 302-43 (87.5%) record and guided the Ravens to 10 TJCAC titles, as well as NJCAA championships in 1983, ’84 and ’86. He was tabbed the NJCAA Region XIV Coach of the Year in 1983,’84,’86,’87, and the National Coach of the Year in 1983 and 1986. His 1985-86 squad led the nation in scoring, averaging 101 points per game.  In junior college, Arrow coached several players who went on to enjoy careers in the National Basketball Association: Walter Berry, Alton Lister, Ladell Eackles and Larry Spriggs. Additionally, he led the 1989 United States Junior World Cup Team to the gold medal in Uruguay with future NBA stars Grant Hill, Calbert Cheaney and Allan Houston. "We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors."
Although he was a nut, your assertion would be tough to argue. At least among the coaches I have watched. I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Here's the video http://www.wkrg.com/local/article/coach ... urt/22994/ Arrow is a good guy and a great coach. Started the program at A&M - Corpus from scratch and led them to the NCAAs before he went back to South Alabama.
Best coach to make the jump from JC to D1 is the Shark
“When I first committed to SMU, I thought it would take a couple of years of building. But with these players coming in, we should make a run. We have a lot of heavy hitters. It could get real ugly for a lot of teams we play.â€- Jalen Jones
The Midland College Mens Basketball program is year in year out one of the better programs in the country. Living out here I am a season ticket holder and make most of the home games. Doh would be wise to monitor this program if he is not already doing so.
Kavon Lytch, the best player on the team, is a very physical player and likes to mix it up inside. http://www.midland.edu/athletics/basketball-men/ PONY UP!
No doubt Lytch could help. It would incredible if Doh & Lutz DID NOT know about Midland & all the other immediate impact JUCO players in that conferene & around the state. "We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors."
My fav JC coach was ol Ned Fowler over @ Tyler JC.
Had a great program & took the big jump to Tulane. The big scandal ($$ in the shoebox, etc) hit the Wave while Ned was @ the helm & they ended up shuttin her down for 4 years. "We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors."
