Illinois requires that we invite coaches to the captain's meeting. I think this is a bit over the top myself -- in WI we simply greet the coaches at 1:30 and ask two simple questions. Players attired? Promote sportsmanship? Of course, I greet them by first name before they even introduce themselves and I am friendly so I never get any problems....

I'm surprised people find this to be a big deal.

You know the reason we have to have the coaches involved in that meeting and near the table? Some official had some kind of inappropriate and unprofessional conversation with one of the captains during that meeting. From what I heard someone said something about "having a beer" and the captain told his or her coach and now we have the situation that is the procedure today. Sometimes we can be our worst enemy.

Peace
I'm not surprised, not in the least bit.
