Summer basketball for high school teams is extremely important and extremely valuable for teaching, learning, setting expectations, and building chemistry.
That being said, if you keep track of your summer record you’ve probably never won anything real before. Just get better.

This Nova team didn't do a lot of holding 3 fingers up in the air, making bow and arrow gestures, or any other celebrations after every shot. They stayed focused and conducted themselves like champions.
No celebration better than confetti falling at the end!!

High School Coaches, from now until the end of time… If you have a kid in your program that wants to be a basketball coach one day and is a hard worker, CALL ME!
We will find them an opportunity to go work for a college basketball program and begin their career early.

Kenny Dye of Queens University is one of the best point guards in college basketball. He embodies what the position is at its core.
He has been a starting PG since he was a 14 year old freshman in high school. In that time his teams are 178-25 (88% WIN%) with him at the helm.
Aside - or in addition to - the obvious (NW MO State's Trevor Hudgins), who will be the very best players within NCAA Division II this season?

I can’t wait for a normal high school hoops season again this year!

The D2 recruiting calendar opened up on June 15th. Since then I’ve:
Traveled over 650 miles
Been to 3 events in 3 days
And seen 30 different HS teams
But today is the first time college coaches have got to evaluate in 2 years. 🤷♂️

“He” is a kid. Can we not make the highlight about the young man that made an impressive play? Why do we have adults running “media” outlets trying to shame children out here playing the game they love.

We needed a win bad at this point in the year, so it would’ve been good to get one anywhere. But growing up in the house and community that I did, a win against the Cards will always mean a little bit more.
I’m just happy my kids got to see some success from all their hard work!

For many 18 year olds, college and college athletics will be the hardest thing you’ve ever done in your entire life. And that’s ok. You’ll be better off for it later.
But if you quit now and give up when it gets hard, you’ll be running from adversity for the rest of your life.

This is odd behavior
“We look forward to having student athletes back” Just not the ones that had the best record on campus, highest team gpa on campus, and did the most volunteer work in the Kinston Community.
$ to fund gym renovations but no $ to fund basketball to play in it
We have been working hard to transform our athletic facilities at Lenoir Community College. As part of our transformation, we recently renovated the Bobby Dawson Gymnasium! We look forward to having our athletes back on campus soon! Stay tuned for more!

You can’t surpass a player that is currently better than you or ahead of you on the depth chart by only working when they’re working. If you only work at practice when they’re working too, you’ll never get there. You have to be willing to do more to ascend

This is a talent we sometimes fail to foster enough as coaches and we don’t celebrate it enough as fans.
But you can NOT have a successful team that doesn’t include good unselfish teammates.
Players have to be willing to sacrifice for each other to win.

We have to Coach our kids hard and hold them accountable. We just have to make sure to always use even more passion and energy loving them and making sure they know we care.
We also can’t waste time worrying about what people (who have never coached) say is or isn’t “coaching”
Just read a quote that said “People that are uncomfortable with the pic on the right, may never get the opportunity for the moment on the left.” Thoughts?
