Meet Two of Last Month's CLJ Renewals

Michigan State's Women's Basketball Coach has been a Coaching and Leadership Subscriber for four years;.
Suzy Merchant’s success is undeniable. Entering her 12th season as head coach of the MSU women’s basketball program, Merchant has proven to be one of the best coaches in Michigan State history and a force in the Big Ten Conference. Through her first 11 seasons, Merchant has brought the Spartan program to the upper echelon at the Big Ten and national level. The Spartans have finished third or better in the Big Ten in eight of the last 11 seasons, and her conference record of 118-68 (63.4%) is in the top-12 career winning percentage in the 34-year history of the Big Ten and is the fourth-highest percentage among active coaches. The Spartans have won at least 20 games in nine of her 11 seasons.


Tubby Smith has been a Journal Subscriber two years. 
High Point University Athletics Hall of Famer Tubby Smith came home in March 2018 to become the 12th men's basketball head coach in program history. The former all-conference guard of High Point College came back to his alma mater after serving as the head coach at Memphis for two seasons.

Smith coached Kentucky to the 1998 national championship and is one of two head coaches to guide five different programs to the NCAA Division I Tournament (Tulsa, Georgia, Kentucky, Minnesota and Texas Tech).

Smith has been named National Coach of the Year three times (2003, 2005, 2016), conference coach of the year six times (1994, 1995, 1998, 2003, 2005, 2016) and was honored with the John R. Wooden Legends of Coaching Award in 2016.

We are proud and honored to have Coach Merchant and Coach Smith as subscribers! It is no coincidence that we have some of the most successful leaders reading our journal every month. Our subscribers realize that for less than most people's monthly cable bill they receive a year's worth of information delivered to their door that will make them better leaders, coaches, and administrators.
