• 0:00
  Final segment with coach Oriama here on the Yukon Women's Basketball Coaches Show. They
• 0:04
  start for real on Wednesday against Dayton at the Excel Center, and that means
• 0:09
  an old friend comes to town, Tamika Williams as a head coach. That's
• 0:14
  a pretty good fight fivesome that's still involved in the game even twenty years later
• 0:19
  in some way, shape or form, whether it be on the floor in
• 0:22
  D's case or in other cases what sue Tamika Swinter doing. It's crazy.
• 0:29
  Yeah, yeah, they they transferred their love of the game to off the
• 0:36
  court. Yeah to me because coaching, so she's on the court but not
• 0:45
  playing. But they're they're always going to be connected and there'll always be you
• 0:55
  know, thought of as a group, but individually, you know, they've
• 0:59
  all accomplished tremendous things since they left Yukon. And the one thing that you
• 1:04
  know, even though they went in different directions, the one thing that's never
• 1:08
  changed is their love for the game and their passionate for the game and their
• 1:14
  ability to connect with people. And that's why they they're in the position that
• 1:19
  they're in. So I'm thrilled for them, and I'm thrilled for Tamika,
• 1:25
  because this is a great opportunity too, you know, coach in an area
• 1:34
  where you were born and a school that you're familiar with, and I just
• 1:41
  think she's going to do a terrific job there and I'm hopeful that you know
• 1:46
  that we can help her a little bit. You know, you've added two
• 1:49
  members to your staff. Yes, Jamal and Morgan are still with you in
• 1:53
  c D, but now you can add a few more. Tania's back.
• 1:56
  We'll talk to her in the next segment, and then you move Ben cancer
• 1:59
  up to an assistant coach after being the video coordinator for such a long time.
• 2:02
  However, what are their roles like with the with the program now that
• 2:07
  you have for uh yeah, for assistance between Jamel, Morgan and the other
• 2:13
  two, what's that dynamic like, Well, it's a very familiar one,
• 2:20
  that's for sure. Tanya having been here all those years and having coached Morgan
• 2:29
  and having coach JJ, you know, so there's a a familiarity. Is
• 2:38
  there's a sense of being back home for Tanya. We certainly with all the
• 2:45
  guards that we have, certainly needed someone like her. And and for Ben,
• 2:51
  you know, he's he was a coach and then got into the video
• 2:54
  aspect of it, and I had an opportunity to getting back on the court
• 2:59
  and still hang on to the video thing. So you know, he gives
• 3:05
  us a different insight, a different view because he's able to be when he's
• 3:10
  on the court, he's able to pull the kids over and in real time
• 3:14
  right there. You know, it's like a football, you know, the
• 3:19
  offense comes off the field and right away they got iPads in front of them
• 3:23
  and they're checking what happened getting coached and Ben is able to do that with
• 3:28
  them. So a huge improvement for our coaching staff, and I'm excited for
• 3:35
  them. You know, only get about a minute left here. I'm talking
• 3:38
  with Ben. How much time do you get during the half to look at
• 3:43
  a little bit of video before you go in to talk to your players at
• 3:46
  halftime to make adjustments. Well, if a halftime's fifteen minutes, and you
• 3:53
  know, you get in there and you've got some things you want to say
• 3:58
  or some things you want to do with your coaching staff, and you know,
• 4:01
  Ben's pretty good at putting together a couple of clips that we can see
• 4:04
  right away and then we can go to where the players are and review some
• 4:16
  things that we just saw and show it to them and and be able to
• 4:21
  again and in a quick way, you know, say this is what this
• 4:29
  is what's happening. Some players learn by doing, some by seeing, some
• 4:33
  by writing. Some have to you know, be able to experience it live
• 4:39
  on TV. So we're trying to hit them from all angles. And you
• 4:45
  know, in a short period of time. I think Ben puts together you
• 4:50
  know, eight or ten clips, and it'd be interesting to see how that
• 4:56
  works this year because the first time we can actually share it with the players,
• 5:00
  right, you know, as always, thank you and we'll see you
• 5:02
  tomorrow, all right, Bob, thank you. Tayny Cardoz is next along
• 5:06
  with Ben Canter as the U Kind of Women's Basketball Coaches Show continues in a
• 5:11
  moment here on Larfield
