Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy

[Tovarich]

Coach Tovarich suffered an unfortunate yellow light of death that baffled doctors and he could not be resuscitated. However, through some fancy scientific magic stuff, Coach Tovarich has been cloned and couldn't resist the call of being a college basketball coach.

Maryland-Eastern Shore Athletic Director: I am pleased to announce Coach Tovarich as the next head coach of our Hawk program.

(All 4 attending media members snap pictures on their phones while the 3 fans in attendance clap lightly)

Tovarich: Thank you all for showing up. What an amazing turnout. I hope at least double this many show up to some of our games. I had no idea that my many year ago 2-year tenure as the head coach of the Shepherd FR team in Arizona was going to get me a Division 1 head coaching job. This is a D1 school, right? It's hard to tell. I'm not sure anyone really knows. Do any of the 7 of you have any questions?

Booster: I donated $20 dollars last night to this school, so I believe I'm the biggest booster it has ever had in it's history. And I just want to tell you that you'll be hearing from me frequently about what it gets used for.

Tovarich: We'll probably go to Walmart with it and buy a basketball. Whatever's left will likely go to my assistants. That's probably about as much pay as they deserve.

Different Fan: Are you aware of what you signed up for?

Tovarich: Yes, this is the worst team (on paper) in America. There's a reason they hired a guy who hasn't coached past a 9th grade team.

Reporter: What style of play can we expect?

Tovarich: I have no idea until I see my extensive roster of 9 whole players. I suspect we'll slow it down to a snail's pace so we don't tire out and lose every game by 40. We'll adjust when we figure out whatever kind of so-called talent they have, if any.

Reporter: You have 5 scholarships available. Will you be doing most of the recruiting or leaving it for your assistant, which, who are they?

Tovarich: Hold on, let me look up their names real quick (shuffles through some contacts in my phone). Odie Baker? I don't know who that is, so he must have been one of them. Devon Cobb I think is the other. They have no particular skills at anything, so I'll do as much as I can. I just hope I can find 5 people willing to play here. Thanks all for joining. I have a lot of work to do turning these people into something resembling basketball players.

[Tovarich]

I'm opting to leave the conferences alone. I spent 3 1/2 hours planning them out and moving them and I still didn't like some of it. At least this way, some of them were correct at some point in the universe....kinda

Good to see clone Tovarich is just as funny as the original

[studbucket]

Glad you're back, and I look forward to the cynicism shining through as Tovarich coaches the worst team in America.

[Tovarich]

Starting over on a higher difficulty. Should not be 8-2. Either I'm not on the difficulty I thought I was last year or I just need to bump it up to make it more challenging, so ignore previous results. Slightly altered schedule. Take two of Coach Tovarich 2.0.

[studbucket]

I was really confused about where all the posts went. Thanks for explaining.

Tovarich: We did a decent job hanging in there in the first half. Then we got worn down in the second half. It'd be nice to have some more people to rotate in to keep fresh. We can't rebound. Their PG got his own rebound THREE times in one sequence. I didn't know whether to laugh at him missing three layups or out-jumping at least three of my guys three times in a row. We have no real rebounding ability. We don't shoot well and that goes for contested layups. We don't defend overly well either. The effort was there. We must have deflected 15 passes and we didn't get a single one of the first 10? I hope we used up a lot of bad luck there. It quickly became apparent why we're the worst team in America. I'd have possibly figured that out in our scrimmage, but that got canceled due to lack of players.

Reporter: If you can't be competitive with NJIT, can you even win a game?

Tovarich: Very possibly not.

Reporter: Did you bite off more than you can chew by jumping from coaching a team of HS FR to Division 1?

Tovarich: Also very possible. This season's going to test my patience. It's going to test their patience. I hope to replace almost the entire roster as soon as I can. This is a long-term rebuilding project, and I may get fired long before it's over.

Reporter: What are your goals for this season?

Tovarich: To get it over with so I can find some talent. Also, maybe to find the phone number for the previous coach so I can ask him why he gave scholarships to some of these people, and mainly, WHY DO I ONLY HAVE NINE PLAYERS ON MY ROSTER?

Reporter: You seem a bit frustrated.

Tovarich: Oh, you haven't seen anything yet.

Tovarich: Great to get the first career win under the belt. I hope the 300 people who were at the game weren't too bored watching us dribble it around in the second half, but apart from needing to work the clock when we're ahead, I can't be getting into track meets with anyone.

Reporter: Congrats on the win coach. You subbed at almost every stoppage the entire game. Do you worry your players won't get a rhythm when they are constantly in and out?

Tovarich: I have a lot of concerns about this team, that's not really one of them. I'm concerned if I can't keep my 7 semi-competent players fresh and end up having to go deeper in the bench. Whatever combo of the 7 are out there are going to get their minutes together. They'll all figure it out.

Reporter: Mirjacic and Moore already seem unhappy sitting on the end of the bench.

Tovarich: There are a lot of empty chairs down there, so they can switch to a different seat if they're unhappy with the one they're in.

Reporter: God help you @ Maryland.

Tovarich: I don't think he can.
