How to bring about change in the most unlikely of situations? Ask Coach Carter. In the
movie titled Coach Carter, Samuel L. Jackson plays the role of Coach Carter. Carter
successfully ran a sports goods store in the neighbourhood of Richmond. He was an alumnus
of Richmond High School where he was a star basket ball player during the 1970s. However,
when Carter was offered the job, he was disappointed to learn that the basketball team of
Richmond High was poor at the sport and was quite indisciplined. Carter accepted the job of
coaching the team with a vision of ensuring a good future for the players through the
medium of basketball. In keeping with his vision, he made it mandatory for the players to
sign a contract if they wanted to be a part of the team. Among others, the contract required
the players to show a minimum stipulated academic performance. When the players failed to
do well academically, Carter locked the gym and debarred the players from playing despite
their good performance in the basketball tournaments

Discourse Community Ethnography: Dayton Men’s Basketball Team
Introduction
The Men’s Basketball Team at the University of Dayton is a huge part of the culture of the university. The basketball team is the premier sport of the school and the city of Dayton itself, generally selling out games, regardless of the opponent. With the University of Dayton lacking a high profile football team and the city of Dayton lacking professional sports teams, the basketball team at the university is the next biggest thing. Basketball is a sport but for so many people it is so much more than just a game. It is a lifestyle and many people cannot imagine their lives without it. It is about working together as a family with common goals and aspirations. The basketball team at Dayton is a discourse community of guys from different backgrounds all trying to help bring the team to a level never before reached. The motto of our basketball team is “True Team” which means being about all the right things all the time. It is about putting aside your own personal agenda for the betterment of the team, and being about the right things everyday. Most importantly it is about respecting each other, working hard for one another, and representing our university, our families, and one another in the right way.
Definition of Discourse Community
According to John Swales, a discourse community can be defined as a group of people who use a distinctive language with this language being apart of their social behavior and identity (218-219). The language used is unique to the group and an outsider would have difficulty just stepping in and talking in this way. New members are being invited and initiated routinely, and through this language they are able to become part of the group. “(There are) six defining characteristics that will be necessary and sufficient for identifying a group of individuals as a discourse community” (Swales 221). These include the common goals, mechanisms of intercommunication, participatory mechanisms, their genres, specific lexis, and a threshold level of members with a high level of expertise. These are different for each group and will also change in time. The veterans will have more knowledge than new members but it is their job to teach the next generation of members before they move on.
Discourse Community Under Analysis
The basketball team at the University of Dayton has for a long time been on the center stage of the city. In the 50’s and 60’s Dayton was a basketball powerhouse that rivaled the likes of UCLA in their prime. Dayton is known for their die-hard fans that are willing to travel any distance for away games, and pack home games that they know are going to be a blowout victory. They are true fans in both good and bad seasons. Many of the fans treasure their season tickets as a prized possession and have had the same seats for decades. In recent years the basketball team has had great success. For the first time in over 30 ye ...

Prof Question?
After you watch the video on Hoosiers, analyze his team development process. Compare and contrast his team as it progressed. What behaviors did you see the team use that indicated to the point that it progressed from a group to a team? At what point did the team stop being a group and become a team?
My discussion response:
Post 1
The team is much more a collection of individuals rather than a cohesive unit that takes accountability collectively. Coach Dale is new and thrust into a situation where he has to foster a sense of unity and work to build a cohesive unit all working for the same goal. As the basketball squad progresses, individuals learn their roles and become more complementary to each other and contribute to a common goal. The squad evolves from individuals with individual accountability to a cohesive unit with a common goal. In a great show of solidarity and doing what's best for the "team," Jimmy Chitwood only agrees to play if coach Dale remains as the coach of the team. The shift towards all members complementing each other and working for a common goal demonstrates how they progressed from a group to a team.
My response to post 1:
Post 2:
After watching the movie Hoosiers, it is pretty evident for me the several aspects the team when trough. For instance, the team was already formed, but it had its flaws. It lack vision, the team did not picture itself as one and did not have goal interdependence.
In addition, the team had to go through a punctuated equilibrium to address the coach issue problem. This caused a big rupture that, against all odds, was fixed by the new coach (Gene Hackman). Also the team suffers from forming, which negatively affects the team performance.
It seems to me the coach does a good job by treating them as a team regardless of all these flaws and standing before them since the beginning. A good example of this is when he mentions in the court when people calls for Jimmy by saying, "We need to respect what we have, and not what we do not have." Sometimes as a leader, we need to believe in our team members and stick with them in good and bad terms to show how important the team is. I really do not understand how a team can believe in itself we the coach does not believe in it in the first place.
The reward of learning comprehensive interdependence comes when they make it to the state final and win it. That is a team helping one another to achieve the same goal.

When you consider the movie “Hoosiers,” what were some of the communications problems early on in the development of the team? What behaviors did you see that indicated to you that there were problems? Respond to two of your fellow learners with a positive yet critical analysis of their discussion.

2. Who are Leaders?
“Leaders are individuals who establish direction for a
working group of individuals, who gain commitment
from these group members to this direction, and
then motivate the members to achieve the
directions’ outcomes. This activity is something
individual members could not do on their own.”
J.A. Conger,
Learning to Lead
7. Coach Carter
Coach Carter based on the true story
of Coach Ken Carter, a top basketball
player who returned to his local high
school to coach this dysfunctional
team.
An excellent movie to illustrate the
challenges of mentorship, coaching
and leadership not just in sports, but
in every organization.
8. Coach Carter
In 1999, Ken Carter accepts the job of
basketball coach for his old high
school in Richmond.
Carter learns the team members are
rude and disrespectful.
9. Coach Carter
Carter sets out to change both the
poor attitudes of his players as well as
their dismal play performance.
He gives the team individual contracts,
instructing them to attend all of their
classes and maintain a minimum grade
average.
10. Coach Carter
He also imposes a strict policy in
written contracts that include
stipulations for respectful behavior, a
dress code with good grades in order
to participate in practice and games.
Three players including Timo Cruz
refuse to follow the contract and quit
the team.
11. Coach Carter
Nonetheless, Carter coaches the team
well and allow them to win their first
victory whilst playing properly.
The initial resistance from the boys is
soon dispelled.
The team, under Carter's watch,
becomes an undefeated competitor in
the games.
12. Coach Carter
However, the overconfident team's
behavior begins to stray.
Carter learns that too many players
are doing poorly in class.
He takes immediate action which
outrages the team, the school and the
community.
13. Coach Carter
Carter initiates a lockdown on the
gym, forbidding the team from playing
until they improve their grades,
angering the locals and is verbally and
physically abused by numerous
people.
14. Coach Carter
Carter cancels all team activities and
locks the court until the team shows
acceptable academic improvement.
Carter fights to keep his methods,
determined to show the boys they
need to rely on more than sports for
their futures.
15. Coach Carter
Following a confrontation with school
(which lift the lock out from gym)
Carter quits his job, but finds the team
studying in the gym, unwilling to play
basketball.
Cruz reveals to Carter his deepest
fear, which Carter asked for repeatedly
in the film, is being unable to fulfill his
true potential.
16. Coach Carter
Eventually, the team improves their
grade but lost their last game of the
season.
Six of the players went to college and
played basket ball thereafter as well.
Coach has affected them more
profoundly than he himself had ever
expected.
17. Leadership Takeaways
People are naturally resistant to
change. When Mr. Carter first steps in as the
new basketball coach and implements changes in
the training style, he is met with a lot of resistance
by the players. The film depicts the emotions of
these players very well. As a leader, when you
make changes to the status quo, expect the same
kind of emotions and resistance by those with you.
18. Leadership Takeaways
Think long term. Mr Carter knew that for
basketball to continue to be a part of the players’
life, they had to get their other part of their lives
together too: their academic results. Although he
was a basketball coach, he saw the need for
balance in his players’ life so that they could
progress on to their next stage in life. Despite
stating clearly what he saw, Carter still faced a lot
of opposition from the community.
19. Leadership Takeaways
Leaders have to make unpopular
decisions. Carter faced a lot of opposition in
his shutting down of the gym from the community.
He became a public enemy because no one really
understood the purpose of his actions. Nonetheless,
he stood by his decision, and won his players over
to himself. As a leader, you will face situations like
this where everyone else is pitting themselves
against you and the only thing you can stand on is
your values.
20. THANK YOU
“True leadership must be for the
benefit of the followers not the
enrichment of the leaders.”
Robert Townsend
