THE AREA’S YOUNG COACHES FRATERNITY

Most Colleges nationally have become quite familiar with Chicago area names, Rob Smith, Ty Slaughter, Nick Irvin, Don Houston, Arthur Goodwin, and Lou Adams; on the heels of our ISL Fall Classic, it’s become quite recognizable of the bumper crop of young coaches coming through the ranks now. I’ve found a special gratitude and appreciation for their commitment and character, while it’s been extremely gleeful for myself as well as our staff to watch up close as these young guys build their brand. The future of hoops surrounding Chicago area looks to be in good hands with this next wave of promising tacticians. Kudos to them as they seem to genuinely care about their players and their safety, especially during a time where our focus should be fixated on youth.
