Message: [QUOTE="NJHoops, post: 3177257, member: 8779"] Dan knows what it’s like to develop high school players and get them ready for the next level. He did it for 9+ years and, in college coaching, has developed close relationships with a lot of those mentor/AAU/trainer types. He’s hired some. Some are really good and care about kids, some are opportunistic vultures. His frustration comes when things happen that do not serve the kids well. Everyone bitches about parts of their job. His big thing with players is to be a good teammate and to be coachable. He’s successfully coached guys who’ve been considered “problems” by others, if he can break through all that other noise. Circumstance that get in the way of that are just frustrating, and frustrations aren’t always expressed in the most appropriate way. [/QUOTE]
