Episode 52 - Jeremy Best - Former Head Coach - Crestview High School (Convoy, Ohio) - a podcast by Jon Cook

When I met Jeremy Best he was a smooth shooting lefty who played for Guy Neal at what was then Bluffton College.  Now Jeremy is the former head coach of Crestview High School in Convoy, Ohio.  In between those seasons of his life he spent time as the head coach at Hilltop High School and and Delta High School, both in northwest Ohio.  After an early career that saw him spend just 2 seasons coaching junior high basketball before becoming a head coach at 24 years of age, Coach Best experienced real struggle at both Hilltop and Delta, before landing at Crestview.  A full 17 years, 3 trips to the state tournament and 2 state titles later, Coach Best decided to step down in 2019.  After his 1st year out of basketball in more than a quarter century, he was willing to sit down with me and reflect on his remarkable journey.  Please enjoy my conversation with Jeremy Best.
