Ep. 306 A Tribute to the George Raveling

In this special episode we pay tribute to our dear friend, Coach George Raveling.

George Raveling was a Hall of Fame coach, trailblazer, and teacher whose influence stretched far beyond basketball. The first African American head coach in the Pac-8, he led programs at Washington State, Iowa, and USC, and served as an assistant for the 1984 and 1988 U.S. Olympic teams. Raveling spent decades shaping the game at the highest levels while mentoring generations of coaches and players. Known for his intellectual curiosity, generosity, and servant leadership, he inspired countless others with his vision of coaching as teaching and his belief in the power of relationships.

After a special tribute from Coach Brendan Suhr you will hear from Coach Raveling himself as we include one of his powerful presentations from an appearance at one of our Coaching U clinics in Orlando.
