Pregame Availability: Jon Heacock previews Kansas
- Thread starter Connor_Ferguson
- Start date
Probably the one attribute I admire most in people is humility and Jon Heacock exudes it. And I think he passes it on to his players. For example, this weekend I was really struck by the difference in how TJ Tampa responded to his targeting call vs how Deon Sanders' son responded to his targeting call. I wish I could find a clip of TJ's reaction so you could contrast it with Sanders' reaction below.
Heacock always seems mild mannered in interviews. During the games to get the crowd pumped up they show a clip on the video board where he is addressing the team (pre-game I assume) and he screams out "How do we win!" And the players yell back "Defense Defense Defense!" and they go back and forth several times. It's pretty awesome and a side of coach I haven't seen. He can get really fired up.
