In case you haven't stopped by The U. in awhile... |
Before we get into anything else, I want to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas from HoopsU.com!
Now, on to the latest at The U...
- Centaur Seasons at Hoops U.com
If you've been on the site recently, you may have noticed and been reading the blog series, "Centaur Seasons".
We're thrilled to share these posts from author Steve McKee. The centerpiece will be the posting in "real time" of the diary that Steve kept of his 1972-1973 junior-year season, which began on November 30. Prior to that (and after), Steve will be posting regularly about his freshman, sophomore and senior seasons, as well as about what it was like to be there at the beginning to help get a struggling college basketball program off the ground.
You can read through the blog posts at Hoops U. by going to the Centaur Seasons page at

For the full and complete Centaur Seasons from Steve McKee, read at www.centaurseasons.com.
It's great stuff that goes beyond wins and losses or X's and O's and gets deeper into the emotion of the game.
- Audio interview with John Wooden
In addition to the Centaur Seasons at Hoops U, Steve McKee also posted a series of interviews he had with Coach Wooden back in 1991.
You can listen to segments or listen to the whole thing. Simply follow the special post, An Exclusive HoopsU.com Guide to the John Wooden Interview
- Coach Pat Kelsey Steps Up
I just added a new blog post which includes video and transcripts from Winthrop Coach Pat Kelsey's recent post-game press conference.
Have you seen the video yet of Winthrop coach Pat Kelsey's press conference following their loss to Ohio State?
He ends the presser by talking about the Newtown, CT tragedy. The blog post, Winthrop Coach Pat Kelsey Steps Up. Will You? shares the video and transcript -- it's a must-see / read!

1st Annual Hoops U. Basketball Coaches Academy |
Mark it down on your calendar! On April 26 & 27, 2013, we will be having our first-ever basketball coaching clinic -- The Hoops U. Basketball Coaches Academy.
The only information I can share right now is that the clinic will be held in Minneapolis, MN.
More information will be forthcoming such as speakers, times, etc ... all I can say right now is that we intend to go deeper than any other basketball clinic. More than a show-and-tell of out of bounds plays and zone press breakers, we want to go deep to help you become a better basketball coach.
So circle the dates of April 26-27, 2013 and start planning your trip to the beautiful Twin Cities of Minnesota!
