Who are your other favorite high school coaches?

Bob Hurley Sr. - book recommendation "The Miracle of St. Anthony" by Woj and of course the Duke connection there

The coach I worked for at Smithfield-Selma, Dwight Carter - he was incredible and I learned more about basketball from him than anywhere else

Bernie Holowicki - worked with him at Five-Star in Pittsburgh, he was retired from Detroit Catholic Central and probably close to 80 at the time but I got to watch a bunch of drills/stations with him one afternoon and he awesome at pointing out little details

You probably know this but regarding Coach Wootten, but he withdrew from consideration for the NC State job before they hired Jimmy V - he had coached Whittenburg and Sidney Lowe at DeMatha
