A College basketball coaches no longer willing to accept their traditional role May take one giant step toward a new Era. At immediate Issue is the unexpected firing of Cali fornia coach Lou Campanelli whose promising Young team was 10-7 when he was dismissed last week. On monday the 16-member Board of directors of the National association of basketball coaches Dis cussed Campaneli s situation for almost 90 minutes arguing Over How and whether to raise a protest. Nab executive director Jim Haney said his office probably would Issue a statement marking the first Lime the 66-year-old organization publicly spoke out Inone voice Over the firing of anybody. Beyond Campanelli however lies the much broader question of empowerment of coaches securing greater Job Security and greater Access to the Rule and policy making process. We re trying to be part of the academic  consider ourselves teachers said Nab president Johnny Orr of Iowa state. We Are the guardians of the  this is an association made up of coaches. One certainly has the right to be concerned about the welfare of its membership said Haney who moved the Nab offices to Kansas City last year to be nearer the Mcaa. We re concerned about intercollegiate  re concerned about fitting into the system and be coming valuable assets in the process whether the Issue is reducing costs or concerns about student ath letes  in Campanelli the Nab has the perfect example of what coaches see As a growing problem. This firing of coaches at mid season is an Issue that we have to address Haney said. There have been four so fur this year in division i and we understand two More have not been announced. In this particular Case there Are a couple of base left for us to touch before we say  the Nab is powerless to Stop the firing of coaches who answer to the chief executive officer at each school. But banding together their Power to command the Media spotlight could prove embarrassing to an school acting in haste. We can look at situations and try to draw attention to How things happen and try to make people aware of the Impact of timing and other things on coaches an programs Haney said. He described the 90-minute conference Call As very  the 16-member Nab Board includes Mike Krzyzewski of Duke Roy Williams of Kansas and Denny Crum of Louisville. Haney acknowledged he had received a letter fro California authorities stating Campanelli was fired be cause of abusive behaviour toward players that was observed after recent games. Haney also dismissed re ports that the coaches were considering some sort of blackball action against Todd Bozeman the assistant coach who was named interim coach in Campaneli s place. R for us to organize into something like that frankly would be appalling he said. Haney moved the Nab office to Kansas City last sum Mer alter the Board voted to seek greater input into the process. Heed with future issues Over Cost reduction and sharing More Revenue with women s athletics the coaches decided they needed Solidarity More than Ever. Krzyzewski made a much publicized appearance Las month on the floor of the Mcaa convention where coaches have never had a significant presence. He urged the presidents to take counsel from their coaches while making rules and policy. But the convention turned thumbs Down on both legislative items Krzyzewski spoke in Tavor of and a few administrators even treated the Duke coach with open disrespect. We re trying to Cement our relationship with the people not get farther away from them said Orr. Ese
