One of the greatest dilemmas in the coaching profession, especially for a young assistant, is self-promoting and getting noticed. Being able to make a name for your self and advancing in the profession is part of every coaches driving force.
If you are not in one of the coaching “Family Trees”… Calipari, Summitt, Pitino, Auriemma, Knight, VanDerveer, Krzyzewski, Stringer, Calhoun, etc… How do you get noticed to even get a call back, let alone an interview for the next opportunity? The same can be said of the first time head coach once they get there, how do they get noticed at a non-BCS school? it’s almost a never-ending cycle. Unless you set your mind right and keep it right, even after you have some success, it can be a never-ending struggle. Give your head coach complete trust and loyalty – unconditionally. Trust your head coach’s loyalty back to you, their respect to your development and the continuation of our profession.

In early September I wondered aloud about the Grizzlies taking a chance on Allen Iverson.
ABR: Iverson Worth the Risk for Grizzlies
That really wasn’t a hard on e to call though.
What’s the latest?
From nba.com
After complaining about his back-up role with the Memphis Grizzlies, Allen Iverson left the team Saturday following a meeting with the team’s owner and Coach Lionel Hollins.
Happier days for Iverson and the Grizzlies
“It’s a personal issue,” Hollins said before the Grizzlies played the Los Angeles Clippers at Staples Center. “And it’s indefinite.”
Memphis owner Michael Heisley gave the four-time NBA scoring leader permission to skip the Grizzlies’ game Saturday night against the Los Angeles Clippers.
According to a team spokesman, Iverson participated in a walkthrough at the team’s hotel in the morning and then hopped a flight in the afternoon after he and personal manager Gary Moore met with Heisley.
Iverson, a former NBA rookie of the year and league MVP, played Friday night in a 114-98 loss to the Lakers, scoring eight points in 22 minutes. He had come off the bench in the previous two games after sitting out the first three with a hamstring injury.

Remember Jeremy Tyler the 18 year old San Deigo teen who has skipped his senior year in high school to play professional basketball in Europe? He’s there. I guess it’s a rough welcome to professional basketball.

Here is the latest…
Obviously, everyone knew this would take some time, but there seems to be a mixed review out there if this was even a good idea at all.
We’ll see where this one goes, but maybe it will be a good lesson for future phenoms.
