IN DANA WE TRUST
from Bucket Podcast Hosted by Sky Stickney
For most of his life, host Sky Stickney couldn’t fill out a March Madness bracket. Picking anyone other than the Oregon Ducks felt like betrayal, and for sixteen years the faith behind that had a name: Coach Dana Altman. Last week, after 37 seasons as a Division I head coach and 16 at Oregon, Altman retired. He leaves behind a Final Four, five straight NCAA Tournaments, players like Payton Pritchard, Dillon Brooks and Chris Duarte, and a program he built. But leaving forces a reckoning and Altman’s was honest. This bonus episode is a tribute to the coach who shaped a generation of basketball fans, and to what the game asks of the people who give their lives to it. Sky sits down with Coach Jon Frazier, who won an Oregon State Championship at Summit High School and then walked away to be with his family. They talk about the cost of coaching, the courage to leave, and what it means to step away before the job takes the people you love. Thank you, Coach Altman. In Dana we trust.
