"Required Reading" I just heard Hubie Brown speak at O’Connell last weekend. He was outstanding as usual but what he said is echoed in the book Cross Over. If I were an athletic director or the head of a youth basketball rec league, any person that wanted to coach in my organization would first have to read this book, understand the concepts and be willing to apply them before I would let them coach. It would be second only to a background investigation. Brian Williams Assistant Boys Varsity Coach North County Senior High School, Glen Burnie, Maryland
