I put my heart and soul in this game, I'm feelin' drained
Unappreciated, unalleviated
Tired of comin' up short, 🤬 abbreviated
Want my whole name spelled out, my own pain spilled out
Blessed with the opportunity to work one of my favorite players

Elite Guard Camp. It featured the top 25 college and high school point guards in the country. I learned a lot and made many connections. Cant wait to use what Iearned.
Long time coming! They can't keep a real one down! Won my 1st 'ship with a great group of kids (my dawgs), the best staff on the state (my bros), and my lil bro 🐐
@Coach_TonyIrons
. After a year like last season, this was much needed. I got better as a coach this year for sure
Peach Jam/EYBL is not regular AAU bball. This event/league is very organized & super competitive. It's a reason why players from our league have a lot of success in college and pros. Not every kid can play here. Not every coach can coach here.Its different

After 17 seasons and a lot of time, blood, sweat, and tears (literally lol) given to the HCHS community and basketball program, I am no longer serving in a coaching capacity at Hazelwood Central High School. What a bittersweet time
Love my kids to death. This is 3 in a row for me. We gotta keep pushing. I love it that my son can experience all of this with us.

on to the next
This kid is one of the toughest kids I have ever coached in my life.He played the whole season(unknown to most people) with a torn labrum in his shooting shoulder(found out 1 week befor the season).He wanted to finish off his career w/guys he has been with since kids. Tough AF
Happy 5th birthday to my boy, my roll dawg, my ♠️. Literally the best thing that has ever happen for me. These five years have flew by so fast. He is me reincarnated for sure. I have my hands so in the future 😂😂. Let me enjoy all these hugs and kisses that he gives me now
D1, D2, D3, NAIA, Juco, Prep school coaches hit me up. We have a lot of talented kids in the St. Louis area that you should be looking at for next year and years beyond. I know a lot of the players in/from the area. Also have some guys graduating from jucos and 4 year transfers.
College coaches, recruit St Louis area kids. They are more than likely tough, compete, skilled, and have a good basketball IQ. They will help you win at all levels of college basketball
Congrats to my lil bros

@jaytatum0
on being selected to participate in NBA All Star weekend. For Brad, it's his second All Star Game appearance. Jay is playing in his second Rising Stars game (should be All Star game). Keep grinding & repping the STL bros
My son has been asking me for weeks to work him out. I really didn't want to cause he is so young. I finally did today. It felt grest. He did great. Proud dad moment
Just a thought from my perspective but the schools in MIAA, GLVC, and other D2 conferences should be recruiting hard in the STL area. There are a bunch of kids that I believe would be successful & have an impact at some of those programs. A lot of kids are being under recruited
My dawgs got it done.Both of them graduated in 4yrs.Have been through a lot with both of them since 6th grade. Long days & nights. Inside & outside of gyms.Real life stuff. Times were I wanted to choke both of yall 😂I'm rocking with yall no matter what.Keep leveling ⬆️ Love yall
I'm in a better place mentally basketball wise. Getting my groove back. I'm a better coach than I have ever been. God sometimes takes away things to make you refocus and become better/stronger.
Xavier Sneed does it. He becomes just the sixth player in K-State history to reach 1,300 points and 500 rebounds in a career. He joins Blackman, Boozer, McGruder, Wade and Nealy in accomplishing the feat. What a great achievement.
One thing this pandemic did is open my eyes to a lot things. About myself, my career, things and people in my life. My vision is clear. I see through everything

@BatchmanKeyyaun

I know both of my guys should have AT LEAST both made 2nd Team. 27-3 and lost to one area team.
We beat everybody else that was really good. Explain that please. And one of them, it's not 5 players in the area better than him and he made 3rd team. Crazy
Tough loss last night to end our season. This is the most adversity that I have had to deal with as a coach (start practice Jan 4, no weekend practices, losing 3 starters due to transfer). One thing about my kids is they were resilient and got better throughout the year.
🚨BREAKING: Vashon (MO) head basketball coach, Tony Irons, is leaving for Mineral Area College.
Irons is an 8-time champion in the state of Missouri, one of the elite high school coaches in the country. Irons also has experience coaching in the NIKE EYBL and USA Basketball.
Even though we lost tonight im in decent mood because my grandma came to the game. This is the 1st game she ever seen me coach for sure. Maybe get first game ever with me involved (playing or coaching). She is always proud of me though. Wish I could've got the win
Congrats to my PG Tevin Gowins on his decision to continue his academic & athletic career at SEMO. One of the toughest (played all year with a torn labrum in his shooting shoulder)& smartest kids I have coached. Great kid and great family. Locked in
#AlwaysFamily
Welcome Jordan Martin as skills coach with BG Elite. Jordan will primarily focus on forwards and post players. He has an extensive playing career. The last 2 years Jordan was the grad assistant at Mercer University (D1) where he helped develop two all conference post players.
I feel all the good AAU programs in the STL area should finish the season playing in the same tourney against each otherm It would be really good for the kids. Gym would be crazy live
I cant beleieve they played
@RealDealBeal23
on this selection. Best SG in the East by far and top 2 or 3 in the whole league. He is averaging 28.7 PPG. Make this make sense to me. And was 2nd in votes by his peers. Lil bro about to average like 35 a game the rest of the year.
