What They're Saying About Kevin Nickelberry...
“Kevin
Nickelberry is as good
an assistant coach as
I’ve
had in my sixteen years
as a head coach and
I have had the good
fortune to have four
former assistants and
one player move onto
head coaching positions. I
feel Kevin is more
than ready to join
that list.” |
“Kevin
has overachieved,
especially in recruiting
at all of his stops. I
have known him since
he was a student in
college and have followed
his career ever since. He
has made great advancements
in the profession.” |
||||
“Kevin
is one of the bright
and aggressive coaches
in basketball. His
ability to recruit
successfully at different
levels has expanded
his base nationally. Having
worked for some of
the most respected
coaches in America
has prepared him to
be a coach. He
can get good players
and he is ready to
improve them as well.” |
“Kevin
Nickelberry has proven
to be an outstanding
recruiter who possesses
great relationships
in the basketball community. His
ability to communicate
with and coach players
at this level will
make him a valuable
asset as a head coach.” |
||||
“Coach
Nickelberry started
out being a coach that
was recruiting me,
but ended up being a
father figure that taught
me to respect the game. The
footwork he taught
me and to play every
play has made me the
player that I am. I
would never be an NBA
player if it wasn’t
for him.” |
“Kevin
Nickelberry quietly
has built himself into
one of college basketball’s
premiere recruiters. Perhaps
he’s
been too quiet. His
accomplishments
in helping to identify
and attract promising
players haven’t
gotten nearly
the attention merited. Anyone
who knows the
game,
knows talent is
the primary ingredient
in building a
winning program. Locating
players who fit
in a given program
is not as easy
as Kevin makes
it look.” |
||||
“Wherever
he has been, Kevin
Nickelberry has proven
himself to be one of
the brightest young
assistant coaches in
America. He
is energetic, hard-working
and charismatic,
and
has all the requisite
qualities to take
the
next step and become
a successful head
coach..” |
“Kevin
Nickelberry is clearly
one of the best recruiters
in the business. Just
look at his track
record and he’s
been able to do at
each of his last three
stops – Clemson,
Charlotte and even
Holy Cross. He
does a terrific
job
connecting with kids
and the trust players
have, in addition
to a keen eye for
evaluating
talent, make him
one
of the elite assistant
coaches in the country.” |
