18 years in the game but this is Day 1 of my high school coaching career! Season starts today and I’m more locked in on my craft than ever before… Scary sight! Wish all the coaches success this year!
As a coach you have to accept that some players are just not dawgs. Accept them where they are at and adjust your coaching strategies accordingly!! Lol. The nice version…. I’m getting better! 😂
I don’t get excited or happy about much. Just who I am as a person but today I’m happy and excited all together! My bother
@josephadams29
gets sized for his first state championship ring after coming up short for years! Mean everything to me! He deserves it!
Them 2 losses yesterday prepared us from then 2 wins today! 2-0 on the day and finished 3-2 for the session! EYBL session 1 in the books. Back to the grind we go… We will be better in session 2! Promise you..
Grown men hating on kids is wild to me! If they don’t play for ya’ll that’s ok! At least they still doing something positive and not out here making this wrong decisions! Some of yall niggas need to get some better motion going on in your lives….
The EYBL hate be real! I guess it comes with the territory! Only a suggestion… Focus on ur race and make sure you doing the best you can do in ur space! It’s different lanes for everyone! EYBL just not yours yet!
Big year ahead of us! We only going to approach it the way we know….. By working! We won’t run from anything and we open to all opportunities! See you soon!
Never forget when they closed the door on you when they could have let you in… Let it motivate you and build ur own house with your own door!

One thing I’ve learned as of recently… This coaching thing ain’t no bother hood! It’s the concrete jungle and full of hate! Better learn how to remain you and survive in it or it will swallow you up! Lastly… It be the ones congratulating you and shaking ur hand right!
5-3 overall. 1-1 in conference play. Busy week next week. Tuesday vs Metrolina, Thursday Vs Westminster, Saturday Vs Providence Day…. All away games! Let’s grind!
Independent situations! We get the grind and what it takes just as u do. I under the marketing and push behind what your saying but let’s cut it out with what a kid needs and don’t need. It’s different situations for everyone. Don’t bash another to make urs better!
Early morning thoughts….. There should be no unmotivated high school basketball players in February! Every player should be playing with a purpose and some passion at this point! If a coach has any of these players on his or her team there will be a early exit sign come playoffs
It is also shocking to me to see how many kids that can’t can’t take constructive criticism. You have to understand when your coach is trying to help you and when he or she is just yelling at you! You have to be coachable in order to get to this next level of LIFE!
Seeing my kids buy into the team concept has been beautiful to watch! Watching them Defend and score as 1 has been the message all summer! Let’s keep going fellas!

Players you can’t be in and out as well! When things go well your in but when adversity hits you run to different teams and think the grass Is greener on that side. Every organization has the same issues people! Learn to stay true and see how far it gets you! Coach Cooke Out!!!
2 tough losses today! When adversity hits we have to be together more than ever! Loses should build you not break you! Game in the morning at 11am vs Durant! We have to play with more energy and pride! WE OK!!
I would like to recognize all of my boys for maintaining a B average and most making the A/B honor after the first quarter! Proud of my fellas for handling business in the classroom!

@CoachChrisNC
on his head job at Carolina international school. One year and those guys elevated to next level! Happy for them dudes! Congratulations!
Wake up today and be the best version of yourself and nobody else! Embrace the time that you’re given and don’t waste any opportunities on getting better! Have a great day!
The best teams showcase consistent effort and energy on a daily basis! Once we learn to control our emotions and focus more on our energy/effort… We will be a dangerous team! Until then we will always finish sessions 2-2…. We have to get better!
