IN REFERENCE to the past recruiting year Reid says the school obtained three quality high school guards, but lost out to Stanford for the services of a blue chip player. With the class program that surrounds Reid at BYU, its quite unlikely that hell end up with his first losing season as a coach. Aside from all the winning, the packed Marriott Center and the exposure of being in major college basketball, Reid says working with quality people at a quality school tops it 6-- 9 all. ALL CAME through, including Reid w ho got his at 3 There is no question his goals will be set a little higher in the future, especially as he enters his fourth season with the year in and year out nationally ranked BYU Cougar basketball program. The transplant from high school to college coaching was one smooth process for Reid who led four Clearfield High teams to winning seasons in the 1970s. IF YOUR a successful coach and o the same things day in and day out, you can Amberly Oviatt, Rebecca Oswald, Nadalea Norman, Thirteen and 14 year old girls from Davis County combined to form an squad which took place in the recently completed Weber Invitational.

Missing from the picture were Debbie Jacques, Chris Stimson, Sharon Anderson, Michelle Wood. Julie Whittier, Krista Rasmussen and Jodie can easily appreciate the By KEITH DUNCAN Whether coaching junior high or college or even the pros, there is no big difference. REID INSISTS that he treated high school players the same way he treats a Danny Ainge or a Greg Kite. Theyre all mature individuals and I know they would all like to be treated the same would like to be treway ated, stated Reid. ITS ALL about teaching the fundamentals of basketball. Reid says even Kareem Abdul Jabbar learns from a coach and if he ever gets a chance to mentor the games greatest player, he wouldn't do anything different than what he does everyday at BYU. Reid, who stands 5' 10" and was once a standout guard at Weber State, ironically has specific responsibilities over the BYU centers. A LOT of people might think it amusing that a 5' 10" guy works with seven-foo- t centers, but here at BYU it has worked to our advantage. "Though I haven't played the position, I make up for it in the time. I prepare to coach these big guys. I get a chance to talk to the great players and 1 learn teachable traits that someone else might take for granted," stated Reid. IN COACHING the guards full-tim- e Reid apparently feels he could take some things for granted. But dont think he doesn't lend some advice to the guards, especially on defense where Reid gets most excited about coaching. High school coaches still in those ranks today remember all to well the emphasis Reid placed on defense. More than one high powered offensive team was brought down to earth when tangling with a team. BUT IN reflecting the true outlook of the BYU coaching picture Reid says all the coaches share in all the aspects of coaching. Thats what makes it so enjoyable here." said Reid. The former Clearfield and Payson prep mentor also has specific duties in recruitment and has the title of recruiting coordinator. d REID CALLS college reone of the hardest cruiting things to do in college coaching its a year around job. Whether he refers to the travel to California or other places where blue chip talent hides out or the hundreds of letters he must send out, one THEY STRIVE for excellence around here and they care about every person its isnt just a token, said Reid, You can get caught up in all that." From the church authorities all the way down to the players we recruit, there is character and citizenship that never goes unnoticed, he said. ON THE recruiting side again, Reid says only kids with basketball goals and who are total individuals get to play at BYU. Perhaps that has something record to do with BYUs in three years, being WAC champs two of the past three years and finishing as one of the top eight teams in the USA last year. AND WINNING is always fun according to Reid. He claims beating Notre Dame and UCLA were thrills of a lifetime. But he adds that beating Layton at Weber State or an overtime victory over Bonneville in the state tourney w'hile at Clearfield were just as thrilling. IT ALL has the same repore you and the players enjoy that kind of excitement no matter where you're at," said Reid. He hasnt forgotten Clearfield or the people he associated with there, occasionally he will return as a guesUspeak-e- r and has been known to just drop in. WHEN YOU spend four years of your life at a school, you can develop some close ties. My years at Clearfield were spent with some special faculty members, a supporting administration and players and student Ill never forget," he said. His heart will always have a place for Clearfield basketball. There isnt a Saturday morning I dont pick up the paper and read the results of their games, said Reid. HE IS confident that the past season of basketball did much to promote the already basketball-oriented state of Utah. You could point your finger at a number of things," he said, Our place is the second largest arena in the country, short of being the largest by 300 and we filled it every 85-1- 5 game." RIVALARY BETWEEN Utah and BYU has some spice which helps basketball overall. Danny Ainge not only gave BYU a name to remember but promoted Utah basketball all over the county. And dont be surprised if he is playing for the Boston Celtics someday, said Reid. The LDS Church, which owns and operates BYU, was paid tremendous dividends from the exposure it received because of the Cougar cage squad. REID RECALLED a church authoritys remark that the kind of exposure the basketball team brought the church would have meant mi2 llion dollars in advertising money. Reid is happy at BYU. Though his basketball future probably wont end there, for now he delivers 100 percent to a program and organization that will ultimately bring him the bigger and better rewards. |
