Offline Dukes and coaches Offline Cost is $5??????????!!!!! Offline It should be free, catered and valet parking Offline Actually DU has to charge a nominal fee if they are serving refreshments to comply with NCAA rules. It can't be free. The idiots in this case is the NCAA. Last edited by CLK (5/19/2013 4:17 pm) Proactive move. Can't argue with it at all. Good work. Offline I like it. Ferry impresses me more everyday. Offline It should be free, catered and valet parking That was my first impression but then I recalled my time working for a nonprofit that would occassionally hold programs for no cost. We found that charging a small amount, in our case it was $10, was enough of a buy in that people would commit. When we tried offering them for free, even with the promise of good and timely information, we often did not get enough of a crowd to make it worthwhile holding.
CONGRATULATIONS COACH DRU JOYCE III
DU to Host Area coaches
Duquese University men's basketball coach Jim Ferry and his staff hope to have some WPIAL-City League players on their roster in coming years. Ferry wants to make a connection with district coaches and have good relationships with them.
So, Ferry and his staff are having a Duquesne Basketball Coaches Roundtable from 6-9 p.m. June 5 at Duquesne's Palumbo Center. The event is a "social" and open to any WPIAL or City League coaches -- freshman to varsity. Cost is $5 and includes refreshments. Coaches can do anything from socialize to hear X's and O's talk from Duquesne's coaches.
"We would just like to reach out and have a connection to the coaches in this area," said Duquesne assistant Rich Glesmann. "We just would like to have a relaxed event where we get to know the area coaches. Maybe a lot of them haven't been on Duquesne's campus or seen the Palumbo Center for years. There doesn't necessarily need to be formal 'chalk talk.' It can be done in a relaxed setting where we just socialize and talk basketball."
Coaches interested in attending should email Glesmann at glesmannr@duq.edu
