Tom Huster was one of crew, a state final guy in Illinois and I really admire his workman like approach to the game. Has that 'we have a job to do' demeanor, and exudes that he and his crew are in control at all times. Never overselling a call, yet no hesitancy either. Just good clean calls and mechanics. Never heard a peep from either coach or as much as look from players or coaches.
One thing I learned last night is stop watching the big dogs on TV and try and emulate the top guys in my area.

Agreed 100%...it is tough to learn a lot from the guys on TV because while they are obviously highly skilled they do things their own way...and given the level they have achieved they have earned that right in a sense. You, me probably 90-something% of the people on this board haven't earned that right yet....
