Today is Coach John Wooden’s 108th Birthday. I was called in to “pinch hit’ for this post due to a last minute cancellation. No worries, “having” to write about Coach to me is sort of like having to take someone’s front row seats to a game that they can’t make. A “sacrifice,” I will gladly volunteer for.
In the past when I have done these posts, I have looked through one of my many books on Wooden for stories to a theme. The only bad part of pinch hitting is the lack of time to do research. Thus I decided to wing it and for a theme the topic of biggest interest for Bruins Nation basketball fans, can Jaylen Hands play point?
