Coach JC
|
 I have been gaining experience with some of the best coaches.
Bob Hill of the Seattle Supersonics said one thing to me and it is very true. "We are all students of the game and we should not stop learning everyday."
That is exactly how I feel. I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to study and work with some of the best coaches in the USA. It is my hope and desire to continue to gain experience as a coach, mentor, tutor, counselor and friend.

Coach DaCosta at
TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY |
It was a pleasure to meet the legendary Bobby Knight!
I learned a lot from him but what touched me the most was his upfront honesty with no hypocracy. An excellent human being with a big heart. And to be next to him while he coached his team.. was the best coaching experience I have ever had.
He gave me good advise and wished me good luck... what he said to me was, " don't be afraid of what you don't know, but what you know be simple and honest." I think these are good words to live by.
I wish him all the best!
