Hugh is an extremely astute man. I noticed his paradigm shifting (sorry, had to throw that in) going from year to year as he talked about the WNT at the convention. So he is adapting to what is necessary in order to get the job done. I think he will understand the issues underlying the differences in the games and adjust to it.

Will Hugh be likely to train his UM teams for international success, which he knows well, or will he make the adjustment to gear his drills and strategies to maximizing the team's potential in the Big 10? I can't see why Hugh wouldn't bring the same type of system (faster offense, terminating opposite, outsides with ball control over offense, athletic setter, etc.) to Minny that he did to the national team, though the additional substitutions might have an effect on that. Also not sure where Love would have fit into Hugh's system, so maybe that is helping her make her decision. |

Here are the exemption bylaws that Hugh would fall under. It's always important to remember that the NCAA DI manual is very big and confusing, and often you have to visit several different parts to find the information you want (e.g. WVB start date)
13.11.3.3 State, Regional, National or International Training Programs. Participation by an institution’s athletics department staff member in recognized state, regional, national or international training programs or competition organized and administered by the applicable governing body or athletics authority shall not be considered tryouts. A member institution’s coaching staff member may not participate only in noncoaching activities (e.g., consultant, on-site coordinator, participant selection), except as provided in Bylaws 13.11.3.3.1, 13.11.3.3.2 and 13.11.3.3.3. (Revised: 1/9/96, 11/10/97)
13.11.3.3.2 Coach/Prospective Student-Athlete Competition. It is permissible for an institution’s coach to participate with or against prospective student-athletes in recognized state, regional, national or international training programs or competition, provided the competition is regularly scheduled under the authority of an outside sports organization and both the coach and the prospective student-athlete are eligible to enter the competition.

How any coach runs a team should be based upon the talent he has,and their ability to coach them.
Mike got more out of less.
we got spoiled.

"Representatives" have a connection to the university based on membership in a booster club, former athlete, former manager, employee, alumni, etc..... Hugh has none of those connections at this time to the best of my knowledge. Those are only some of the ways one can be classified as a "representative" of an institution's athletic interests. There are other ways. I take it that the thought others expressed was that a coach in waiting might satisfy other criteria for this designation, not that he's joined the booster club. I think there's no deep issue here because of exceptions permitted, as I understand it, for National Team activity. But there is some gray here, and it's certainly not as simple as pointing out that he's not yet a current or former employee or member of a booster club. |

bottom line is it was a non-issue for Mick and it will be a non-issue for Hugh

But Hugh doesn't really have any dealing with the younger recruitable kids. He only trains the national team which unless it has changed there aren't any players that aren't either in college or ex college players. If he was training Select or Youth I could understand.

I don't know either way, but earlier, karellen made the following post, which I may not understand, but it made me curious: |

I think there is a huge room for interpretation. The WNT coach can be as much or as little involved in the training of younger players as he wishes to be, it can all be explained away by saying that he is helping build up the feeder, so the grey area is definitely much greyer.
