General Coach Suggestions

Last one from me (I think). Modern college basketball coaching staffs have hoards of assistants, graduates, and trainers, so in the interest of abstracting one more specialist; it might be interesting to add one more coach that would handle physical training/medical/nutrition. This coach could provide buffs to injury avoidance, physical development, and recovery time.

It would also add another little angle of engagement if some coaches had a specialty(ies), similar to what some players have already (e.g. "sharpshooter", "paint dominator" etc.). Maybe some coaches would be a "zone specialist" and would add a small buff for training players on zone defense concepts. Maybe another would be a "Free Throw Master" that would improve player's FT skills. Maybe a "work-out freak" that would help players more quickly max out their physical capabilities (athleticism, endurance). In real-life there are plenty of examples of coaches that excel in specific areas of basketball, so it would be cool to reflect this in the game.

I like the idea of adding icons to coaches like the players.
Defensive, Offensive, Recruiting, Scouting, Player Development Specialist icons.
As this data is already there could be implemented.
Maybe styles like Man to man, press. A few more, rebounding, tempo icons.
Maybe too many but your post got me thinking of the possibilities as I like the player icons as I see immediately their specialty.

Great idea getheroff
