Leonard Hamilton Florida State University Seminoles Defense Nike Clinic Notes

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Leonard Hamilton Florida State University Seminoles Defense Nike Clinic Notes

The Leonard Hamilton Florida State University Seminoles Defense Nike Clinic Notes are a great collection of defensive ideas that Coach Hamilton uses with his Florida State University Basketball Team. The 2016 Seminoles might be his best team since he has been there.

Leornard Hamilton might be one of the most interesting college basketball coaches out there. He is out of the Larry Brown Family Coaching Tree. That right there tells you something.

Coach Halmiton doesn’t mind that some people don’t take him serious. He is a joker on the sideline with several “one-liners”. Coach Hamilton has been a college basketball head coach for 28 years. He only trails Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski and North Carolina’s Roy Williams in ACC wins over the past decade. Coach Hamilton’s first win this season will make him the winningest coach in Florida State history. He’s still the winningest coach at Miami, where he coached from 1990-2000.

If you can get past his glare and that might take you a long time, because few coaches stay as stotic as Coach Hamilton during the course of the game. Hamilton isn’t defined by the scowl he keeps on the sideline.

He would rather be defined by how he helps other people. Coach Hamilton has partnered up with with producer Kyle Bynoe and launched his own gospel music label, 5ive Oceans Music, a year ago.

Leonard Hamilton’s passion off the court is music and keeps the Florida State coach fresh. He is a complete oppostie of the image that he has projected all these years. He always tells peopl that he has a little bit of personality.

Coach Hamilton isn’t a self-promoter so not everyone knows that the 2016 Seminoles have right now with freshman guards Dwayne Bacon (No. 14) and Malik Beasley (No. 28) headlining what Recruiting Nation ranks as the No. 11 recruiting class.

Coach Hamilton is off to a good start with the Class of 2016 with commitments from small forward Jonathan Isaac, who is ranked ninth, and guards Trent Forrest (No. 47) and C.J. Walker (No. 81).

The Leonard Hamilton Florida State University Seminoles Defense – Nike Clinic Notes will show you some great ideas on defense. The 2016 Seminoles could make some noise in the ACC this year.
