Jerrance Howard driven to run own program
May 13, 2011 1:30 AM
Illinois assistant coach Jerrance Howard's dream is to become a head coach and run his own program someday.
After attending the Nike Villa 7, a three-day training and leadership seminar for the country's top assistant coaches at VCU in Richmond, Va., Howard walked away Thursday feeling he was that much closer to achieving it.
"It was just huge," said Howard, who was one of 60 assistants invited to the seminar. "Probably outside of getting hired by Illinois and my recruiting success, this is probably the most important thing in my career."
