I’m going to be real. Kids have to be ok with going JUCO now. I know it doesn’t sound cool, but this transfer portal is just way too appealing for college coaches. Guys want to get older not younger. I know Instagram won’t like JUCO, but if you got game it will all work out.

HS kids hate catch & shoot 3s. It’s the weirdest thing. They much rather fight a World War 3 to get a shot attempt. Guys feel like if they aren’t playing Wrestlemania with the basketball & defender then they aren’t playing their game. Corner 3 gets you paid just turn on your TV.

If the only way you impact a game is by scoring then you’re not good at basketball. You’re just good at scoring. If you have an A in Math, but an F in History & English that means you’re not a good student. You’re just good at Math. Only guys that value winning will understand.

Sorry to tell you, but when you get to college absolutely nothing is about you. No more meetings about you wanting to play point guard or get more shots. The coach is going to give you a job & you’re either going to do it or not play. Jobs are on the line for coaches & players.

When you get to college nothing comes above winning. Everything is about winning plays. You can no longer take “my turn” shots. The lazy defense & gambling stops. Your low effort plays will be exposed. Everything is on film. Going through the motions will have you left behind.

Run to the corner not the wing. Rebound out of your area instead of waiting for the ball to find you. Talk on defense not just when you’re open. Play hard rather you’re scoring or not. Get your nose dirty instead of spectating. All of this is equivalent to averaging 20 PPG.

If your coach doesn’t push you to your limit everyday then find another coach. You will never reach your full potential if you don’t have real ones in your circle. Real players don’t want back rubs. Go buy yourself a Hallmark card & balloons if you want to live in fantasy land.

What do you think will happen if you make 300 3s a day for next 21 days? You will become a better shooter. Get a 25 minute lift after every practice & game in next 21 days. You will get stronger. Do it all in addition to whatever you do daily. This habit could change your life!

Guys have to understand how important sprinting hard, cutting hard, & setting real screens are. In winning basketball it’s as important as pass dribble shoot. It takes a certain type of toughness, character, & personality to do those things though. Guys just don’t got it in them.

There’s a high level kid right now not being held accountable. There’s an adult today setting a kid up for failure. There’s a player right now being allowed to not box out, gamble on D, & take bad shots. No accountability, liars, & ego are 3 main ingredients in stunting growth.

Go make 300 catch & shoot 3s at 6am & 6pm everyday for 2 weeks straight. On game day just shoot stand still 3s for 20 minutes straight after your game. This is an easy way to elevate your game & it will become an everyday habit. Shooters work on shooting it doesn’t just happen.

You don’t rebound, can’t really guard, just an ok shooter, & you’re a decent athlete. That sounds like a lot you guys game. Some of you need to take a real look in the mirror & evaluate your game instead of studying Tik Tok dances. Put down the phones & get in the gym.

If Kevin Garnett played today, he would call himself a 3 instead of a skilled & versatile 4 man. His parents would of demanded his AAU & HS coach to play him on the Wing or else he would be transferring teams. Let’s stop running away from the 4 & 5 position PLEASE!

If you’re a Head Coach & you’re ducking smoke… that’s a problem! It’s not about you. It’s not about your ego. It’s not about your legacy. It’s about straight development! Parents stop getting fooled by trophies & banners. Who have they developed!? Not babysat, but DEVELOPED.

The best advice I can give to these prospects in this recruiting process is let the school chase your name instead of you chasing the school’s name. Go where you are loved not liked. Go where you’re a PRIORITY not a plan B. Style of play, fit, & development - do your research!

Somebody explain to me why Jahvon Quinerly isn’t on every NBA Draft board. Good passer & vision, gets two feet in the paint vs elite athleticism & measurements, can finish around the rim - crafty, beat his man off dribble, shooting 44% from 3, HEART, etc. I can go on all day.

Guys bouncing around from team to team running away from the truth. Too many players & families making this harder than what it is. Find the best place for development, have a good attitude, & put your head down & work! It’s not the coach, it’s YOU! Too many cry babies in this.

Being coachable can take your game to another level. Too many sensitive traits in basketball. The sensitivity is killing the development of players. Guys can’t even listen properly because they’re in their feelings. Go be sensitive on Valentines Day not at basketball practice.

Alex Tchikou is now 6’11 & 245 pounds. Has NBA size! Tchikou can switch ball screens, pick & pop or roll, alter shots, & rebound. Being able to switch ball screens & make 3s are huge. Good hands & feet at his size. Huge freshman year coming up!

This hoop journey isn’t for everybody. People think it’s sweet. It’s not built for the weak. If your mental not right, the game will chew you up. Guys just think it’s going to smooth ride with no bumps. Parents think twice before signing your kid up & taking this path.

Guys love to act fake confused when it comes down to their playing time. They will completely forget about the 48 out of 54 bad practices they had. Then the parent who hasn’t been to one practice will somehow come up with a reason why they should be playing over other guys.

Players! I’m sorry to break this to you, but regardless of how bad of a coach you think your Head Coach is he is running the show. He dictates your playing time. Unfortunately if you don’t do what he says you will NOT play. It’s that simple. Fight your battles wisely.

Just because you bring the ball up the court doesn’t mean you’re a PG. Most fooled by the position. PGs lead, get two feet in the paint, make plays under pressure & out of ball screens, & advance the ball. PGs guard the position. Being short with handles doesn’t mean you’re a PG.

College Coaches want to win games. They are going to play the guys they feel will help them keep their jobs. In your mind you think it’s scoring. In the Coach’s mind it’s 50/50 balls, deflections, no offensive rebounds, active hands, high motor, guarding the ball, etc.

Coaches don’t want to deal with immaturity. Coaches just want to coach. Please leave the antics at home. We don’t want to explain why you got subbed out. We don’t want to explain why that should of been your rebound. It takes maturity to buy in. Maturity wins basketball games!

The fluidity & movements of 6’5 PG Garwey Dual is what you call SPECIAL. He handles the ball on a string. Has added a smooth & efficient jumper to his game. Deflections, steals, & blocks are regular stats he loads up on every time he hits the floor. He’s up with the best of them.

This isn’t confusing. College coaches want to win. They’re going to play the guys that want to win the most. The guys that want to win the most do what the coach tells them to do. The coach will only tell you to do things that he thinks will help him win. WINNING keeps his job.

Guys don’t want to be held accountable for anything. Everything can’t be the coach’s fault. Getting out rebounded & getting blown by has nothing to do with coach. The coach not letting you dribble the air out the ball has nothing to do with not being in the right help spots.

I wake up every morning & get on my knees to talk to The Lord. I’m so thankful for the blessings & relationship with God. I hit my knees before I go to sleep to give thanks & ask for forgiveness. Stay in prayer. God is good & REAL! No cap!

Parents will find every excuse for their kid not playing well. They’ll think of the most craziest things. They refuse to hold their kid accountable. It’s okay to have to get better. There’s nothing wrong with your kid not playing well & having to get better. Development is okay.

Great seeing Alabama HC Nate Oats & his crew today as they prepare for their Sweet 16 match up this week.

checks a ton of boxes when you talk about being an elite Head Coach. ACs Preston Murphy, Austin Claunch, & Ryan Pannone are also as elite as they come.
