11 JIMMY DYKES HEAD COACH The most successful basketball programs all have a few key elements in common. PASSION They are passionate about the game. The coaches are passionate about their team, the players are passionate about the opportunity to represent their university and the fans are passionate about supporting the program. EXCITEMENT All successful programs are filled with excitement. They are exciting to watch and to be a part of. COMMITMENT It takes a lot of people to make a program successful and they all have to be committed to the effort. It starts with the coaches and staff and extends to the players but the best programs in the country take it further. Everyone who impacts the program, from professors, athletic trainers, academic coordinators, administrators and fans, all have to be willing to work toward the same goal of excellence in all areas. PERFORMANCE Finally, successful teams have to perform at a high level every day. Whether in the classroom, in the community or on the court, doing things the right way is vital to the program s success. The University of Arkansas made a move March 30, 2014, when they welcomed Jimmy Dykes as the eighth head coach of the Razorback women s basketball team.
