“A coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies but once.” Shakespeare How did it take me this long to fully appreciate this quote? You can worry about scenarios and worst cases all day…but it’s just unnecessary stress when compared to just dealing with what’s real.

If you’re willing to brazenly cheat/recruit to win, why are you in the game? It’s not for your players and program then, it’s for your W/L’s and personal glory? Sad, in my opinion. High school basketball should be 100% about the kids in your community you coach in.

I’ve got shocking news. If you cancel or move back the fall sports season there is a better than average chance that kids will still gather and not socially distance to your liking. They will also be less supervised than they would have been in that time practicing or playing.
