When asked what he brings to the table as a coach, 33-year coaching veteran and current University of Rhode Island assistant basketball coach Kevin Sutton describes himself as a "high-level professional." With an impressive overall coaching record of 475-115 dating back to the late '80s, Coach Sutton has coached over 150 college scholarship recipients and 8 players that have gone on to play in the NBA. Despite his impressive track record as a coach, the end result does not excite Coach Sutton. The creator of the phrase "Living Trophies" (see TBL 022), Coach Sutton believes that while a championship trophy sits on a shelf and collects dust, creating living trophies out of his student-athletes and what they do beyond the game is what truly matters. According to the experienced coach who doubles as a family man with a wife and four children, going "Pro" is just a job while becoming a "Professional" is a career.
