I have the best job in Division 2. Contrary to public opinion and unfounded reports, I will not be coaching High School Basketball at CHS next year. #smalltownrumormill

- For these young men/women who are playing on a big stage, under national spotlight and criticism, or the 8th grader in an AAU game with just parents watching, YOUR IDENTITY ISN’T IN YOUR PERFORMANCE, GOOD OR BAD! Know who you are IN CHRIST! James 1:2-4 “Consider it Pure Joy”
- Not enough can be said about our two seniors @Psuede14 and @RMontgomery5. We started the year in the 90 degree heat competing, serving kids and families together in the Dominican, and finished it crying and laughing together in the Florida sun. #morethanbasketball
- How about this cutie. Elizabeth stole the show and my heart today as we visited the all girls orphanage. She loves her pink ballerina dress. Their smiles and personalities were infectious!
- How important is body language in the recruiting process? How a kid plays and respects the game are good evaluators of a team or individual mindset. We don’t let players draw attention to themselves after making plays because it’s not about them.
- 2 realizations today I’ve known for a while. I love being in it with the guys! My mind still tells me to do things that my body can hardly do!

- This kid was an All-Star this weekend. But he’s been an All-Star for a long time. I can’t tell you how much I will miss coaching @Beyuan_ He always found a way to make it bigger than himself and basketball. Proud of the man he has become. @LeeUMBB @LeeUFlames @NABC1927
- Fortunate to be a part of this kids journey the last two years. @FurmanHoops is getting a great player and even better person. @LeeUMBB is grateful for the time we’ve had together.My journey is different 🙏🏽
- What I love about this picture is the excitement and emotion on @fchwp5 face. Celebrating your teammates success is an important character trait in successful teams and cultures. Get up @RMontgomery5 and @lwoods_3
- Fortunate to represent the GSC with an at-large bid to the National Tournament.
