Nicole Sims, Assistant Women’s Basketball Coach, Earlham College

“Joe Adams and I have had the opportunity to work closely with Coach King as part of our women's basketball program at Earlham College. As a former college coach and mentor, he has played a key role in supporting my development as a young coach.
Coach King has provided valuable guidance in both recruiting and the on-court aspects of the game. From helping identify student-athletes who align with our team’s culture to offering insight on systems that elevate our team’s performance, his impact has been incredibly meaningful.
His mentorship has deepened my understanding of defensive concepts such as ball screen coverages, help-side rotations, and team communication. Offensively, he has helped guide us in building a more fluid and effective system—focusing on creating high-quality shot opportunities through better spacing, tempo, and read-based decision-making. These conversations have helped us grow more confident and intentional in our approach.
I’m truly grateful for Coach King’s consistent support, honest feedback, and commitment to our success. His knowledge, collaborative mindset, and passion for the game make him an invaluable resource for any coach or program. I’m also fortunate to have played for Coach King for three years during my college career—an experience that laid the foundation for how I approach coaching today. Joe and I are incredibly thankful for his continued guidance as we grow not only as coaches, but as people as well.
If you’re a coach who’s looking to grow—whether in your philosophy, recruiting, or on-court strategy—working with someone like Coach King is one of the best ways to do it.”
