Ventura County Hall of Fame inductee Lythgoe finds higher calling
Posted: at 1:50 am
Photo by Rob Varela, Ventura County Star
ROB VARELA/THE STAR Marty Lythgoe is one of five newest members of the county sports hall of fame. 3/8/12 VENTURA, CA
Ironic, isn't it?
If Marty Lythgoe thrived as the ultimate team player and consistent performer on the basketball court, in life he became as unreliable as a weather report.
If the former Ventura High standout whose mentors included the legendary Bob Tuttle ruined his own goal of becoming a basketball coach, today he shines as a "coach" with a higher calling.
"I think about that all the time," said Lythgoe, who also played three seasons at Brigham Young University. "I really feel like a greater plan is at work here.
"I always thought the best coaches were those who had a gift for communicating and getting their points across. They seem to have the 'it' factor. I like to think that I did become a coach after all these years, and that I can help the people I work with because I've been exactly where they are now."
From 1963 to 1965, the 6-foot-5 Lythgoe was a standout forward for the Ventura High boys basketball team who averaged 21 points per game and earned Channel League Player of the Year and all-CIF-Southern Section honors. In his junior season, the Cougars finished 24-5, won the Channel League championship and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Southern Section playoffs.
He subsequently accepted a scholarship to BYU and become a key member of the basketball team.
Then came the dark years. From 1970 through 1984, the self-described "partier" drank too much, ingested too many drugs and spent too many hazy days pursuing substance-induced binges.

Busting the myth: coaching not so cutthroat after all
Posted: at 1:50 am
Gluttons for punishment Michael Hagan and Brad Fittler have enjoyed their time in coaching.
Coaching offers high rewards, high pressure and can be highly addictive, writes Adrian Proszenko.
f you go into coaching for job security,'' says Tim Sheens, the man who has coached more NRL games than anybody else, ''you're probably going to go out very quickly.''

Which is why, when Michael Hagan took over the reins from Warren Ryan at Newcastle in 2001, he asked the great clipboard holder for a tip. Wok responded with just one word: ''Rent.''
So, we are led to believe that, if you're looking for stable employment, you don't want to be an NRL coach. That the space between being hired and fired could be just a handful of losses. Right? Wrong.
Here's a statistic that busts the myth - the average lifespan of an NRL coach is 93 games. That's almost four seasons in the big time to prove you're up to it. The surprising statistic will come as welcome news to Steve Price, Michael Maguire, Geoff Toovey and Brian McClennan, the men taking up the NRL clipboard for the first time this year.
The figure, which is calculated from the beginning of the NRL era in 1998, is slightly bloated by the contribution of veteran coaches Sheens, Wayne Bennett and Brian Smith. If you take out the contributions of the ''Three Kings'' during that period, the number drops to 80 games. Surprisingly, of all the coaches during that time, only one - South Sydney's Steve Martin in 1998 - was punted before seeing out his first season.
While it may still be prudent to rent rather than buy, the numbers suggest most coaches will get a fair crack despite the pressure for immediate results. To put that into perspective, most coaches are likely to enjoy a shelf life almost 18 months longer than the players they are mentoring.
''I understand the difference between why some go and why some don't,'' said Sheens, who has four premierships to go with his record 646 appearances in the coach's box and on the sidelines.
