Why is basketball the greatest sport? I’m a football guy myself, but this was a great and compelling answer in argument for basketball from Coach John Lamanna! 🔥🏀 #basketball #coachingphilosophy #coaching #basketballcoach #culture #virtue #viral #hoops

I had the pleasure to interview Coach John Lamanna, who serves as the Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He has a great story that will relate with many. The adversity of being winless in his first two seasons as a head coach led him to Adoration at 1:00 AM. Sitting in the pew, in the early hours of morning he began to read a book by Curtis Martin, titled “Boys to Men: The transforming Power of Virtue”. He had a revelation about the concept of virtue and its attainment, which led him to solidifying his foundation and philosophy as a coach. He established what he calls ahis four pillars of the program, which mirrors the Cardinal Virtues of: Prudence, Fortitude, Temperance, and Justice. From winless to sustained excellence Coach Lamanna’s vocation is to develop men of character and build great decision makers. Coach Lamanna was nominated as the coach of the year in 22’ and 23’ when the Blues’ program was crowned the NWC regular season champions. Coach, thank you for your time and insights! Full episode drops on Friday! #coaching #basketball #hoops #whitmancollege #leadership #virtue #breakbeyond #coachingphilosophy #culture
