Middle schoolers that aren’t taught man-to-man principles are really being done a disservice because once they get to high school, they will expect to get minutes, but will struggle with instinctually moving with the ball and calling screens. #CoachingMatters

A HS coach can pour out their entire being to guide a team only to be scapegoated, railroaded and have kids looking to transfer b/c the coach is trying to do right by the team; not just one or two kids. The profession is brutal, but the real will always rise #StayStrong 🦾

High schoolers really think players end up at a JuCo because they are not good at basketball. That rude awakening comes quickly. There are players with league championships, league MVPs, All-Area, 1st & 2nd Section and State at these junior colleges.

As coaches, we say “guys you gotta talk more”, but our players need to be taught what exactly to say. It should be more of a conversation instead of mindless chatter. “Ball, ball, ball”≠“I’m got ball” “Help, help, help”≠“send them this way…I’m on your left/right”
