Approximately 900 seniors annually play varsity basketball in Greater Houston. This area has averaged about 30 D1 recruits over the past 20 seasons. That’s only .003% (three- tenths - of - one - percent). Quit fooling these kids !

- Prayers warriors mount up! A North Shore player fell on his head during their game vs Dickinson, and has remained on the floor for approximately 10 minutes. I’m keeping his name anonymous at this time (and don’t ask).
- On July 23, 2022 I will be inducted into the PVIL Hall of Fame, for my contributions to the basketball community over the past 2 decades. An accomplishment of a lifetime!

- Bellaire vs. San Antonio Brennan Tues @ Texas Southern University - First time a State Semi Final game has been played on a HBCU D1 campus - Shelton Henderson v. Kingston Fleming (the top 2 players in TX) - Props to both head coaches - Props to TSU for agreeing to host
00:00- Most D1 colleges have 13 scholarship hoopers. The vast majority only have 7 or 8 who average 10mpg or more. That means nearly a half dozen who signed LOI are riding that bench for the very first time in their life. #PayAttention
- Some of you grown azz men should consider not playing the role of “home boy” with these sub 18 year old kids. Instead, become the role model they need!
- Current 11th graders! TODAY you become eligible to take OFFICIAL visits to college campuses. If the college is serious enough about you, they will spend their $ to host you. Do understand, you only get 1 official visit per school, and a total of 5 before becoming a senior.
