I don’t hire coaches based off of players that they can bring me. I hire coaches on their loyalty, skill set and their ability to connect with PEOPLE!

To all my unsigned 2020 HS Kids: If you don’t have that d1 offer that you’ve been working for, chances are that your options will get worse before they get better. D1 juco is a very viable option. I’ve seen unsigned seniors pick up high major offers by that following fall!

7’0 kid that I’m recruiting asked if he can play 3? My response is, “Well can you guard the 3?” If you can guard the position, in most cases you can play the position!

For all PGs and Undersized combo Gs, you gotta watch Toronto’s Kyle Lowry and Vanvleet. They consistently make plays on both ends of the court! Ie: Charges, deflections, assists, momentum stopping fouls, and buckets. If you’re not scoring, find another way to impact the game!

Bandwagon recruiting is so rampant at the collegiate level. That’s why so many under recruited kids slip through the cracks. The Damian Lillard’s, Steph Curry’s, and Paul George’s of the world were all overlooked by some jabroni given an coaching opportunity at a High Major.
