DON MEYER: "Get with a head coach who possess good qualities of integrity. A man who is a servant leader and cares and can make life a great adventure. Learn all you can and you'll learn much more when you're a head coach."
Over 15 years ago I wrote a book titled "The Art of Being An Assistant Coach." As part of writing that book I surveyed over 35 head coaches. The quote above was one that I took from Coach as his advice to assistant coaches. I have been fortunate to have worked for a few coaches that have lived up to that guideline -- I am even more fortunate that I've had a mentor in him that has lived up to that as well.
