Want to know how Coach T does from the bench?

Good bench coaches win close games, bad one's don't, which explains CCM's record vs. CDT's record in close games.

The comparison is relevant when discussing bench coaching. Martin was horrendous as evidenced by his record in games decided by 7 points or less.

The description of how he scouted and drew up plays from the bench as associate coach tells just exactly how good he is. X's and O's? This man designed his own unique combination defense to confuse opponents. The teams he plays in the SEC will have never seen it before.

"But end-game coaching strikes me as something that is far less important than either recruiting or player development in one’s long-term coaching success. And one’s skill in end-game coaching is not really related to those other two things anyway. It’s certainly conceivable that a guy who goes 10-20 in the Sun Belt is a great end-game coach but just doesn’t have the players to execute his brilliant strategy or even get the team in position to be in a close game very often."

For the guy above referencing Cuonzo's timeout at T&AMU: you've also then got to reference the play he drew up right after that to give Jarnell a dunk + 1 to win the game at the line.

But I somehow doubt that will happen. :peace2:

If Martin drew up a play that requires 2 defensive players to be out of position in order to make a bounce pass from the wing to the paint at 4.5 seconds on the 5 second clock, no wonder some liked him because that is Matrixesque.

If the guy playing the out of bounds man simply stands back a foot and hands ready, the lane to pass isn't there.
