COACHES:
Send us kids that dive on the floor for lose balls... (every 50/50 ball).
Send us the kid that LOVES to take charges....
Send us the kid that gets fouled and screams “AND 1” on a fast break layup...
Send us the kid that says “STOP BALL!!” “I GOT BACK”!...

Coaches, Just because they drop 30 a games doesn’t mean they fit our system! Invest in bringing them to a game to see where they fit! We want and need talent... but here at UAPB, we recruit kids who we actually want in our locker rooms.

Can someone explain this to me:
If a P5 school loses to an HBCU, it’s “fire the coach!?” Correct me if I’m wrong, are we not capable of success? Why do people continue to DOWN play OUR schools???

Thank you “Vol Nation” for your support! 💛
One of Arkansas-Pine Bluff’s players was killed yesterday in a shooting.
UAPB’s coach said they couldn’t have possibly been in a better place to receive news like they did, than in Knoxville.
She said “Vol Nation” has embraced their program & made them feel loved & at home.

Coaches- “I have a spot available on my team open. It’s just the opportunity you were looking for. I believe in you.”

Female coaches matter because they provide a visible pathway for young women to enter the coaching profession. Women coaches matter because they can relate differently to young women than men because they are a same-sex role model.
Be the change. Female coaches MATTER. 💋

HS/AAU COACHES: If the kid is 6’1 please don’t tell me she is 6’3! You will lose your credibility with a lot of coaches. How many time have we heard, “Coach, I got a guard for you, she’s 5’6/5’7....”
Diva: Coach the kid is 5’5! Just tell the truth! Lol.
