[IUFR] Ben McCollum Coaching Breakdown
Coach Adragna dives into the film on Indiana coaching candidate, Ben McCollum
Well - here we are again.
Indiana is on the hunt for a coach, and the rumors are swirling that Indiana has struck out with its top choices - if you believe what Jeff Goodman is reporting.
On top of that, Goodman also tweeted out this afternoon that Drake’s Ben McCollum has emerged toward the top of Scott Dolson’s list of candidates.
Whether that’s true or not, McCollum has certainly emerged as one of the most polarizing names being discussed in relation with the IU search.
So this seems like a good time to take a deeper dive and learn more about one of the fastest-rising names in college hoops.
McCollum is just in his first year of coaching D1 at Drake, but the job he’s done at Drake has been extremely impressive.
Mix in that he won four Division II National Championships in eight years prior to that, and you start to understand why he’s getting a serious look.
In today’s IU Film Room, I do an extensive breakdown on Ben McCollum’s coaching philosophy.
Now, over to you:
What are your initial reactions to McCollum’s philosophies?
Do you think he can win at Indiana?
Until next time,
Coach Adragna
Founder, IU Film Room
Like the action and guys always moving. We stand around to much.
I appreciate you doing this report on McCollum. My major concern is that this could be another Archie Miller mistake.
