SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) -Santa Clara’s Kerry Keating is challenging all college basketball coaches not to text and drive.
The Broncos’ fourth-year coach is asking coaches around the country to call his office with an oral commitment – not much unlike those they get from athletes – before the summer recruiting period begins July 6 that they won’t text and drive this summer. And, he hopes, long after that.
Keating has more than 30 coaches signed up so far, including some entire staffs, from UCLA’s Ben Howland to Butler’s Brad Stevens to Jim Larranaga at George Mason and several from the West Coast Conference teams that face Santa Clara. Keating went public with his handsfree initiative last week – first getting the word out via Twitter.
