Brad Underwood - Changing His Approach

Really good look by Matt Norlander at how Brad Underwood basically threw out his coaching approach and started over, to help make Illinois an NCAA team again. Not an easy thing to do for a coach who's 56 years old and has had a ton of success. Adapt or die in any business.

"Really, he gave up control of his team in a lot of ways, which is something most coaches cannot part with."

"Everything I've been trying to establish this program has been trying to find a way to win when the ball doesn't go in. At the end of the day, that's what this was all about." - love this approach to coaching from Underwood.
