Call more technicals. The whining, yelling at officials, swearing at officials, needs to be dealt with. Mens and women's game alike...even high school. Set the tone officials.

...complacency and satisfaction are the are the enemies of excellence.
Last two practices have played lots of 4 v 4 cutthroat
- 5 points for paint touch 3
- 5 points for score off offensive rebound
- every shot in paint must be off 2 feet
- Minus 2 points for shots off 1 foot
- basketball points on all other made baskets
- no out of bounds
A kid told me today at tryouts, “if I don’t get playing time and sit the bench all year long, I’ll cheer as loud as anyone from the bench”
I believe him and you just don’t hear things like that much. No way I am cutting that kind of kid - ever.
Studies have shown that negative thoughts are 7x more powerful than positive thoughts. Self talk, and who you allow to speak into your life, is very important.
The true MVP of your Varsity program is a middle school coach that plays man-to-man - I feel bad for you if you have a 2-3 zone guy leading the future of your program.
It would good for volleyball, basketball, etc…to take this weekend off and not play. Lots of Sunday games taking place on the most important Sunday of the year. Show your child the example and take a weekend off and attend church on Sunday. Impact for life.
Arch Manning plays two sports and will probably be a millionaire in the NFL. Love that his family supports him being a kid and playing what he enjoys and not just focusing on one sport.
Student loan crisis
1) don’t attend your dream college if you can’t afford it
2) take core classes locally - no employer cares where you took English 101
3) Parents need to lead and give their child wise advice when it comes to loans
4) stop majoring in degrees that are useless
Read another tragic article where a 10 year died due to a Tik Tok challenge. Parents, get your kids off social media. It is addictive and connects them to a world you cannot supervise. Be a parent. Say no. Be the uncool parent, they will thank you when they are 20.

Year 20 of coaching basketball in the books and you realize the game gives way more than it takes and this is not a job but a calling. Hopefully I have another 20 in the tank to spend with quality young men, with the goal of teaching life lessons through this beautiful game.
We as coaches need to resist how the rest of society acts, as it searches for ways to be divisive & cause division. Don’t pit men’s vs women’s basketball - just appreciate the game, the hard work of players/coaches & excellent play. We need to remain United & love the GAME.

I think about that every time I watch Seinfeld - the cancel culture is so hungry for power and weak people give in because they are worried about what Twitter says 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ - if twitter is against you, there is a good chance you are doing nothing wrong lol.

a 529 savings plan & start contributing when child is born. By putting on as little as $100 a month it will really grow. Plan ahead for major cost in life - most people don’t think about how to pay for school till their kid is 17 & they realize their child isn’t Good Will Hunting
Families are in quarantine, parents out of work, daycares closed, tornadoes hammered the south last night, all while trying to educate with distance learning...if the only thing you think about is if players are working on their game - you need to rethink your priorities.
