Jim Crews St. Louis University Press Breakers
Jim Crews joined Rick Majerus’ staff as an assistant coach more than three years ago. Two years ago, everything changed when Jim Crews was promoted to interim head coach as a result of Rick Majerus’ health challenges and death in December 2012. Here’s a great set of Jim Crews St’ Louis University Press Breakers Plays.
Jim Crews was promoted to Head Coach after that off-season. The St. Louis Billiken’s are about to extend their 11 game winning streak with a win over Fordham 70-48. Jim Crews is an excellent X’s and O’s coach that you have never hear about in mainstream college coaching. He has taken over a program and made it’s his own program.
The shots weren’t falling for St. Louis University so coach Crews had them pick up their defensive intensity and force some turnovers with easy buckets. The Billikens and Jim Crews are 17-2 on the year and ranked 24th. Their 6-0 record on the road is the best record in the country. Jim Crews and his players take exception to anyone that says that their record is product of a weak schedule.
Most fans think that the St. Louis Billikens beat some bad times and that they expect them to win. Coach Crews and his staff have done an excellent job of scouting, working hard, and doing all the little things right. In the last three years of Jim Crews being in charge, the St. Louis Billikens have only had one game where they haven’t competed. They might have gotten beaten, but they have competed. I think that is all that you can ask is for the players to compete and do their best.
The St. Louis Billikens will play Duquesne on Wednesday night. You can learn a lot from how Crews coaches his St. Louis Billikens. We have a great set of basketball coaching notes on his press breaker.
