From what I've seen of Brian Gregory, he could very well be that guy. Not sure what he's like in practice, but in the games I've seen, Gregory seems to be a very excitable coach.DaytonBuck;655437; said:I'd love it stayed home and played for the flyers but I think he needs a coach who'll really got on him.

The Wolverines' powerful post player says phenom Mayo will go to Southern Cal, too.

DAYTON - Aaron Pogue hasn't officially made his college choice. But he's leaning.
"I have to say I like USC," said Pogue, the Dunbar High School center who helped the Wolverines to the Division II boys basketball state championship last season.
At Dayton Public Schools basketball media day Wednesday, Pogue also said he is also considering Tennessee and Florida, but the powerful post player said USC "plays my style of basketball. I fell in love with it."
There's also a potential teammate helping his decision. Pogue said O.J. Mayo, the two-time Ohio Mr. Basketball who led North College Hill to the past two D-III state titles before transferring to Huntington, W.Va., has told Pogue he will play basketball at USC.
Pogue should follow a line of highly recruited Dunbar players, which includes Daequan Cook, a freshman at Ohio State, and Wolverines junior Josh Benson, who has given the University of Dayton a verbal commitment to begin playing there in 2008.
Peter Pullen, the Dunbar coach, said point guard Norris Cole could either play basketball at NAIA power Walsh University in Canton or Robert Morris near Pittsburgh, among other choices. Pullen said Pogue has his choice of Division I schools "as long as he follows our game plan in the classroom."
Other coaches said Dunbar's success on the court and in the recruiting arena can help their teams.
"They have inspired my kids to work hard as well," said Billy Brooks, the Belmont coach. "In the past there's been a stigma about Dayton Public kids with discipline and other problems. Now, as they're paying more attention, (college coaches) know that's not true."

"(Pogue) knows our team rules, and that's why he wasn't in there to start. But he sure changes the game a little, doesn't he?" said Dunbar coach Peter Pullen, who benched Pogue for missing practice Tuesday and Wednesday. "He's a rebounding machine and as you saw, he can do more than score. He's a force."
Pogue, a center by position, was also the center of attention.
The senior, who Dunbar coaches expect to play Div. I college football but is highly sought-after on the hardwood, drew three fouls in 30 seconds on Hiland big man Dustin Kaufman. The final whistle -- a questionable shoving call -- gave the 6-3, 220-pound Kaufman four fouls with just over two minutes left in the third and led to Schlabach earning a technical foul.
Pogue, who seconds earlier instigated a face-to-face confrontation with Kaufman after a foul, retreated near the Hiland bench and taunted Schlabach with an applause and a few words. Soon after he mocked the Hawks' jam-packed cheering section by acknowledging the boos, delivering a wry smile and pointing to the scoreboard.
