MICHIGAN CITY – Most coaches don’t have their players read poetry before games.
Brandon Williams isn’t like most coaches.
He believes that developing his student-athletes as young men and women is more important than how they compete on the basketball court. This includes having them read “If” by Rudyard Kipling on game day.
It’s a part of getting them ready for the world and what it may have to offer.
“If I’m a good coach, it’s gonna tell 10 years from now (based on) where our players are, how they’re doing (and) where they’re performing,” Williams said.
