Hubie brown Coaching Philosophy

1. Must be a great teacher.
2. What coaching aids do you use?
3. Don’t assume anything.
4. Communicate by sight (people retain 81% of what they see).
5. Use: shot charts (assistants chart everything), 3×5 cards with other team’s plays and your OB and special plays on it, playbook, video, practice plans
6. Must have a goal and everyone must understand it.
7. Don’t be afraid to change your goals.
8. When you are a disciplinarian, organized, and make people do what they don’t want to – some people won’t like you.
9. Players win games, coaches lose them.
10. Don’t let a player be negative to another player. 11. Shooting makes up for a multitude of sins – don’t ever cut shooters.
12. New young teams must creep – crawl – walk – run – bring them along slow.
13. Never believe the statement when hired – “You don’t ever have to win at this school.”
14. Passing is a lost art so take away the other team’s best passer by pressing and trapping.
15. Loser hang with losers – split them up.
16. Don’t ever let two bad foul shooters shoot together in practice.
17. Don’t be afraid to coach through negative motivation.
18. There is no excuse for not playing hard.
19. There are six keys when you have little talent: a. cause more turnovers b. get more steals c. get more shot blocks d. get more second shots e. shoot free throws well f. get more fast breaks
20. Tape floor spots to show where you want good shots.
21. Play ten kids – there is not much difference between #3 and #10.
22. Never holler at a hustle foul unless he fouls a jump shooter.
23. Every third time down the floor have your center touch the ball.
24. The three toughest things to defend: back screens, guard down screens for post, and passing game (especially high/low action).
25. Basic offensive theory: Look for 3 point plays with the power inside game, get transition baskets, and get your best players the most shots through set plays.
