D3 got hoopers!!!!!!!!! Best part about it is you get to still go home for all the breaks and have a life outside of basketball. Plus many D3s are better academic schools than most D2s. So you’re gonna get a better job out of college. #d3hoops Don’t make misinformed decisions!

Crazy how @_11golive gets 30+ a game in public school and getting D2 offers but a private school kid who gets <10ppg gets D1 offers? Where does this make sense? Did I mention he’s a great student and fully qualified?.

Been fortunate to live out my dreams. Only 1 I didn’t attain was the NBA. I don’t have any regrets. If I die today, I’m good. I did it my way! Lived a great life, did some great things and been to some really cool places. Don’t understand anyone who won’t chase their dreams.

For those non-winning D2s and low D1s…how y’all not winning and don’t respond to coaches emails when they trying to hand deliver you a kid who can help you turn things around? God bless you.

Most dudes who think they are too good for D3 would get no time at any of those schools. I sent a kid to Ferrum. Thought he was too good, didn’t last the whole season. D3 has hoopers!!!!!!!!.
For my players in VA that think you are “too good” for D3 please go to a Randolph Macon, CNU, or Roanoke College basketball game.

Dear public school kids!!!!. YOU CANNOT PLAY FOR ANOTHER SCHOOL DURING THE DMV/DC LIVE. Scholastic events are for the high schools and kids enrolled at the school. If you play for a school that is not your own you might be ineligible this season.

Y’all might not appreciate it but I do. Any dude who played in the NBA was one of the 500 best players in the world! Let that sink in. It’s 7.8 billion people in the world. 500 out of 7,846,000,000 🤯🤯🤯🤯. Don’t ever call an NBA player a bum.

Parents and players. Telling you the hard truth hurts coaches as much as it hurts to hear it. We sincerely want you all to SUCCEED but it’s a finite number of spots. Best way to take the information I’m giving you is to prove me wrong. It’s that internal motivation that’ll get it.

Dear HS ballers and parents of HS ballers. You better be DIFFERENT if you want to play college basketball! Because you already don’t meet the age requirement. 🤷🏾♂️ Get in that weight room. Bulk up! Cause you ain’t guarding a high major, 24yr old soph in college.

College coaches in stable situations (I used this term loosely) WILL offer HS players. Stable college basketball cultures WILL continue to develop talent. So moral to the story…HS players keep putting in the work. Work to be the solution the Portal can’t give.

College coaches:. Please stop comparing kids you recruiting to that kid you know you’ll never get. Recruit him for who he is. If he fits your culture and you’re as good as you say you are, it’ll work out.

24
Still the same:. 1. Recruit guys who want to be there. 2. Toughness wins. 3. Winning doesn’t cure all so don’t focus on the cure. Focus on the cause. 4. Love you’re guys through the good & bad. 5. Head up & keep moving. People won’t understand the plan. 6. Outwork them all.
Head coaches, if you could go back in time to when you 1st took over a program, what advice would give your younger self?.

I haven’t been around the game as long as a lot of guys (only 7 years as a HS coach). Dug is the best HS passing PG I’ve seen with my own two eyes. 🤷🏾♂️ @TTOBasketball Ibn and Ray got him hooping. #PGUniversity @FeatheryRay.
Dug McDaniel isn’t just the fastest and quickest point guard I’ve seen this weekend, he’s also the most experienced. Was special this morning leading @TTOBasketball to a QF win over Scholars. 📸 @jordanxeldridge

It always amazes me how many kids complain about being a certain position in basketball and wind up with no place in the game at all. All because you didn’t want to be who you are. Basketball today is positionless anyway. Don’t get caught up in numbers. Just play the game.

Best of all we aren’t keeping any of the money. We will randomly select one student to receive the money as a scholarship to college their freshman year!!! As more kids sign up, the scholarship $$ will increase!! @MrBattleTested @CoachDucci.
