Time Out Ref -- time for sprints

This goes way back but I remember reading about a coach somewhere in the northeast that put thumbtacks in the heels of his kids shoes to make sure that they always played on their toes.

When John Chaney coached at Temple, he used to have practice around 6 am every morning and his reasoning was that at the end of the day, his kids would be too tired to get into any trouble.

Bob Huggins got tired of his kids half-assing it when he made them run sprints, so he bought some treadmills and had them right next to the court on the highest setting.  Your punishment was time in 15 second increments.

Do you know what else sucked? When we were shooting free throws after practice, if anyone missed a shot, all of his teammates had to run sprints while he had to watch. Not a great way to make friends but at the dining hall, you got a table all to yourself.😁
