Great high school coaches are quitting because they don’t want to deal with all the nonsense that has nothing to do with basketball.. hard to blame them

Josh Hart talks about not being on the floor to end last night's game:
"That's always difficult, watching it on the bench. Obviously, I want to be out there. I want to help my guys win, but at the end of the day, for me, I don't have an ego to it. I approach this game with extreme humility. That's how I approach it.
I don't have an ego. I said it last year, the last several years, I'm here to serve these guys. That's the gift God's given me to go out and serve these guys, make sure they're in the best position to be successful. I put the success of the team over the success of myself any day."

Jalen Brunson demonstrating how it's legal to lift the pivot foot so long as you shoot (or pass) before that foot touches the floor again. It's legal at all levels and must be taught to everyone

The Los Angeles Unified school board has voted to require screen time limits and encourage the use of pen and paper for assignments, becoming the first major school district to do so. @SamChampion reports.
Spot on. The @GottliebShow analogy is 100% right. We’re in a new reality where parents & trainers are pushing kids toward specific powerhouses. That’s their journey and it’s fine… but winning at home with your childhood friends is just different.

Not concerned with Hurley more concerned with UCONN’s warm up routine…
Old enough to remember when so called “celebrity trainers” and basketball “influencers” told this app that the drills in the video were pointless and passé…
s/o to UCONN for stressing the basics!

Pikiell should actually be arrested if he doesn't bring in a new coach to help him fix this crap

Azzi Fudd shares her advice to young girls looking to develop their game:
"I feel like a lot of times, people are so focused on workouts and specific moves and drills instead of just playing free, playing pickup, playing one-on-one and working on your game and your skills."
This leads to more and more buy in from all of your coaches. Also, helps give a new voice for our athletes to hear.
At High Point, Flynn Clayman runs his staff differently.
Instead of assistants doing a little bit of everything, he assigns coordinators:
One owns offense.
One owns defense.
One owns special teams.
Not traditional. But intentional.
Because when everyone is responsible for everything… no one truly grows.
Clayman learned this from his mentors. When he was trusted to run the offense, it accelerated his development. So now, he does the same for his staff.
Yes, you give up some control.
But you gain clarity, ownership, and better coaching.
Assistants aren’t just helping anymore.
They’re leading.
And when coaches grow, the team grows.
Build a staff where people can specialize, own their role, and thrive, not just survive.
Are you asking your people to do everything… or putting them in positions to be great at something?

This quote is HEAVY
“This is something to constantly remind young prospects. Be careful who you let in your circle. Check who’s there when things aren’t going your way and those are your true people” -
