Who’s more likely to end up coaching basketball?Maybe both of them get in the coaching business, but I would guess Jimmy if I had to pick.
 
Mike Waters did an interview with both of them and I think they both acknowledged that Buddy was the more likely to be a future coach.
Didn’t see that interview, Buddy seems to nice to get in that cutthroat business.
 
Buddy for sure. Jimmy is going to make use of his Cornell degree.
After watching the Mike Waters interview I guess you are right, but it looks to me that Jimmy is more like his dad. Buddy seems to be such a sweet kid I just can’t see him yelling and screaming like pops.
Coaching major college b-ball just looks like a brutal business.

Things change as you age and in the roles that life puts you. Plus, not every coach is a screamer. Plus, JB was a popular ass't coach. It is what helped him get the job as Head coach. The players on the team spoke up for him.

Yeah, I don’t think a guy like Brad Stevens is the old school, fire and brimstone screamer that guys like Izzo, JB, and K are.

And clearly it works for him.

Junior supposedly has near a 4.0 GPA from Cornell business school -
That’s his future.

I’ve been to practices when it was allowed and JB wasn’t a screamer at them. In fact he was very observant, rarely spoke which seemed to result in the players paying attention when he did say something. I rarely heard him raise his voice and when he did stop a practice to say something, you could hear a pin drop.

Only spoke when he needed to. Practices were timed for each group and each station.

Was that before or after he rolled the balls out.

Tony Bennett is a great example of a successful coach that is not a screamer.
