- Jack Ferguson was one of the best people I’ve ever met. His attitude, love for life, and energy were contagious and made everyone around him a better person. I was incredibly fortunate to spend 2 years in the same gym with him, and I’m better off because of it. RIP Jack.
- Biggest live period takeaway: ankle socks are making a serious comeback.

- “He was a gifted writer and gifted teacher. Our young men were fortunate to have been in Doc’s classes.” Grateful for the love we have received after my dad’s passing. Hearing from his former students and athletes shows the impact that he made on people and the world.Vincent de Paul Fitzpatrick, Loyola Blakefield English teacher and scholar of H.L.

- In 5th grade, we had an end of year party where everyone could bring one CD. I brought the Live 03 soundtrack. Nobody wanted to play it. Shoutout to my classmates for their lack of taste.NBA Live 2003 went certified platinum. The GOAT video game soundtrack. 🎮
- Unfortunately, these never helped me dunk. I did touch the backboard a couple times in layup lines though. That was pretty sick.You weren’t trying to be a baller if these don’t bring you back to your childhood

- Started snowing during my run today, and all I could think about was a playoff loss in men’s league last month. I ran faster. Will to win has never been greater. #toughness
- Kids in HS & AAU games often take shots that they have never practiced. If you don't work on it, don't shoot it...it's not going to go in!
