LETTER FROM CURRENT COACH DESCRIBING ME:
It is my pleasure to write this letter of support of Brendan Downes application to play on your team. He has been a player of mine at the University of Missouri for this past season but I have watched him play for several years.
Brendan s strength is his unselfishness. He is focused on winning and nothing else. He sees the floor well and is always thinking 2-3 steps ahead. Brendan is a tremendous leader and serves as a coach on the floor. He is always communicating with teammates on both ends of the court. Brendan always competes and will do what is asked of him.
Offensively, Brendan is always looking to set-up a teammate. He is capable of scoring but he can do much more for the team. He does need to shoot or score to be a threat offensively. However he is quite capable of scoring in both conversion or in a half-court offense.
Brendan has 3-point range and his long arms allow him to post up taller players.
Defensively, Brendan can guard the allow him to pressure dribblers, passers, and shooters. He anticipates well and plays the passing lanes well.
I believe Brendan is worth and will contribute to any team he plays on. I hope you will give him every consideration for a tryout with your team. Please contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Ron Lykins
Head Coach, University of Missouri
