In this week's episode, Coach Brendan Suhr is joined by Larry Shyatt — founder of the Shyatt Clinic, longtime college headcoach, and one of the great givers in the profession. The episode opens with a full rundown of this year's Shyatt Clinic in Charlotte, and all of those clinic videos are live now onCoaching U+.Shyatt then walks through a coaching life that began with a graduate assistant job at Utah and a Volkswagen Rabbit driven from Cleveland to Salt Lake City, then ran through Cleveland State, New Mexico, Providence, Clemson, Wyoming, Florida, and finally the Dallas Mavericks bench. He's candid about being fired in the ACC, about not being ready the first time he was a head coach, and about why he walked away from years and money left on his Wyoming contract to protect his staff.From there the two get into the craft. Shyatt explains where his defensive philosophy came from, why he built teams to shorten games rather than chase possessions, and the rope drill he used to make defensive positioning visible to his players. He and Suhr also discuss what he learned from hall of famers Rick Barnes and Billy Donovan, and why the question that matters most in coaching is whether you're a giver or a taker.All that and more on Episode 339 of the Coaching U Podcast presented by Noah Basketball.Noah Basketball is trusted by 28 NBA teams, over 200 NCAA programs, and over 1,000 high school programs to capture and analyze key shooting metrics to help your players perfect their shot and reach their max potential.Learn more at noahbasketball.comThe Shyatt Clinic videos are LIVE now on Coaching U+ — Josh Schertz, Justin Gainey, God Shammgod, Brad Brownell, JohnCalipari, Nate Oats, Jai Lucas, Billy Donovan, and more.Access this set along with our entire library of coaching clinic videos anytime, anywhere, on any device — including the full archive from every previous Coaching U Live event.Watch NOW: https://coachinguplus.comNot a member?
