Bill Self’s Guide to Better Practices
If there is something that is most sought after among coaches it is practice material. I felt that since Bill Self just signed his 30 million dollar 10 year deal that i should at least try to mention his DVD Bill Self’s Guide to Better Basketball Practice. This DVD was made when he was the head coach of, my favorite school, Illinois. Self takes you inside an actual practice and goes through warm up drills, passing, shooting as well as all the defensive training you would need to run a basic defense. This isn’t a completely in depth full length practice but the drills that are showed will give you plenty to work off of. If you are looking for something that is specific to offense or defense then this isn’t the DVD for you. If you want something that you can use to outline a practice or a week or practices then this is the correct tool.
Bill Self is a winner and has been a winner at every program he’s been. His secret has always been to have good players, but when you watch this tape you’ll clearly see why Self is deserving, if anyone is, of his new contract.
