Old players, new coaches - MICHAELSPAPPY - 02-20-2021 05:46 PM
One of the interesting things about watching the games from past years is that you occasionally will see a player who is or has been a head coach in subsequent years. For example, right now I am watching Bradley and Illinois State from 1984, and Jim Les was Bradley's starting point guard. He went on to coach at Bradley for several years (made the Sweet 16 in 2006), and then moved on to UC Davis for 10 years, where he has been to the NCAA once and the NIT twice. Sometimes you can compare the style of the coach as a player with his style as a coach.

They showed a picture of Jim Platt on the bench. He was an assistant at Illinois State at the time.
