  • Coaches who teach

    From the Wall Street Journal.

    http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...164361398.html

    The article focuses on Jim Tressel, but there's a nice quote in there from former Cougar and current SUU coach Ed Lamb (who also teaches):

    Southern Utah's head football coach, Ed Lamb, who teaches a coaching class like Mr. Tressel's in the spring, says regular students can even provide valuable feedback. Although "a lot of these students don't know what a first down is and why that would be an objective," he says, some helpfully pointed out in practice evaluations that they thought "coaches could be more organized" and "players should move faster from drill to drill."
    Joe Pa has a MA in Italian literature and taught a lit. class at Penn State for several semesters back in the 60s. There's hope for Pellegrino yet.
    "More crazy people to Provo go than to any other town in the state."

    Ed is a good man. Hopefully for SUU he will stick around for awhile before moving on to something bigger.

    "The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

    "They talk about the economy this year. Hey, my hairline is in recession, my waistline is in inflation. Altogether, I'm in a depression."

    "I like to bike. I could beat Lance Armstrong, only because he couldn't pass me if he was behind me."
