Just so there is no confusion, I wanted to share the NAIA recruit calendar for summer. Dates that coaches can recruit are in green.

- Too many coaches out there shutting down interest from NAIA’s because a kid may have D2 offers or interest. A lot of DI guys, not just D2 guys, would have a hard time getting minutes at some NAIA’s ...get out and watch small college basketball, HOOPERS on EVERY level! #facts
- A lot of posts about how many D1 coaches are in attendance or at a court watching. NAIA-D2-D3 coaches out too but you don’t mention them,but you take the same amount of 💵 from them to attend as the D1 & that is part of why ppl don’t value their scholarships! D1💵=to all levels💵
- I am honored to be named the new Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Oakland City University. God is guiding our family in a new direction and we are very excited about this opportunity. Let’s get to work!!! #PlayForMORE #GoMightyOaksKen French Tabbed as New Head Men's Basketball Coach bit.ly/3cPtugO
- Everyone gets so caught up on the level, NCAA DI or whatever …so not to confuse coaches and recruits out there, here is the recruit calendar for NAIA ‘21-‘22 …live period and days in 🟩 #NAIAMBB
- I wanted to share the NAIA Recruiting Calendar for 2019-2020...Green indicates “LIVE” and Red indicates “DEAD” ...no confusion here!
- NAIA 💵💵 is the same value as NCAA DI 💵💵 both an opportunity to 📚🏀👨🏾🎓 ...but there are people brainwashing these kids into thinking it’s ONLY DI or nothing! We got guys getting degrees & going over 🌊 too 🤷🏼♂️NAIA degree = NCAA degree #ConceptsWeMustGrasp
- It’s crazy how the mindset is of some of these kids still available, their parents and their “handlers”...am I missing something? D2, NAIA & NJCAA 💵 is the same value as DI 💵 but it’s not good enough for them! Opportunity & Education matter...degrees don’t say DI, D2, NAIA
00:00- Thank you to everyone who has reached out to me and my family this week. We are blessed to have so many thinking of us. This is very tough on everyone and we have no idea what is next, but our faith is strong. We are trusting we are shown a new path soon. 🙏❤️#lookingforMORE
- Here is the @Gshort99 3 to win it tonight! Great team effort, never backed down. @RedStormSID on the call.
00:00 - Just want to put this out there: The NAIA has some unbelievably high character coaches who care and want what is best for our game as we move forward with so many changes ahead with the merger to one division.
