This week on the Coaching U Podcast, Coach Brendan Suhr is joined by Matthew Driscoll, head coach of the North Florida Ospreys, fresh off historic victories over South Carolina and Georgia Tech.

In his 16th year at the helm at UNF, Driscoll shares the principles and philosophies that have made his program a consistent contender and one of the most exciting teams to watch in college basketball.

Driscoll provides incredible insights into his offensive philosophy, emphasizing pace, spacing, and decision-making to create high-quality shot opportunities. He discusses how North Florida has become synonymous with three-point shooting while maintaining a balanced attack that prioritizes shot selection and efficiency at the rim.

He also discusses the "good, better, best" shot philosophy that guides his team, how his team runs secondary break actions and maximizes transition opportunities, his use of a "tandem point zone defense" - a strategy developed alongside Scott Drew at Baylor, which continues to frustrate opponents, and the importance of relationships and adaptability in building a sustainable program.

Driscoll also dives into the mental side of coaching, offering advice on how to handle pressure, adversity, and the hidden opponent of expectations. He emphasizes the value of transformational coaching over transactional approaches and highlights the critical role of authentic leadership in fostering player development.
