EP 71 - Manny Dosanjh, Assistant Coach, Western Michigan University

Coach Manny Dosanjh,
In this episode, you’ll hear from Coach Manny Dosanjh. Coach Manny is currently an assistant coach for Dwayne Stephens at Western Michigan University. Coach Stephens was recently hired as the new head coach at WMU. Coach Manny comes to WMU after 2 years as a Graduate Assistant Coach for Coach Tom Izzo at Michigan State University. At MSU, Coach Manny worked side-by-side with Coach Stephens. Coach Stephens was one of the top assistant coaches in all college basketball. Before coming to the Spartans, Coach Manny coached at Orangeville Prep in Ontario, Canada. In the 2019-20 season, Manny served as the associate head coach for an Orangeville Prep team which sent seven players to NCAA DI programs and won an Ontario Championship. Coach Manny is from Brampton, Ontario. If you are currently a Graduate Assistant Coach, this is truly the podcast for you. Coach Manny shares his advice on how to approach the GA job. The level of respect he has for Coach Stephens, Coach Izzo, and the MSU Basketball staff resonates throughout this entire podcast. And, wait until you hear how Coach izzo instilled a sense of belief in Coach Manny that he could be a Division I assistant coach. In addition, Coach Manny shares his thoughts on networking. Quite simply, it is a must-listen for young coaches. At 47 years of age, I was taking notes from this 27-year-old assistant coach. Finally, it is refreshing to hear the mindset of a 1st-year college assistant coach. The respect that Coach Manny has for his co-workers is simply spectacular.
