    Let me chime in on the prom vs AAU debate. GO TO PROM! If a coach doesn’t recruit you because of it, you don’t want to play for that person anyway. The very best coaches allow for life balance and care about your happiness. Let the kids experience the fun things in life.

    The Texas Tech Football Coach is from Snyder, TX and the Texas Tech Basketball Coach is from Brownfield, TX!! That is freaking cool and gives all of us small town West Texas boys something to dream about!!

    My prayers go out to the University of the Southwest Golf team. They were involved in a fatal bus accident outside of Andrews tonight. These accidents are one of my biggest fears. I pray for healing and comfort for those involved.

    When you get emails questioning your coaching and calling for you to resign from your job and quit coaching all together, you reply to it with these pictures. #IDontQuit #Champion

    I’ve said it many, many times. If you want a basketball coach that will win, come down to the Frio in late May and pick one off the river!!!! #RiverRats #4:1

    A lot of D1 programs are trusting good D3 coaches to help them win in the new era of college basketball. Smart moves by all of them. A good D3 coach will help you figure out a way to win!!!

    This one really hurt. I’m proud of my kids. They fought all season long. They deserved better. It’s easy to say next year, but doesn’t change that this one hurts today. We will work harder. We will be better. #d3hoops #goCru

    College basketball recruiting is all about financial packages. D1 is now just like D3. Instead of casting aside D3 coaches, you need to hire the guys that understand how to recruit against better financial packages. They have the experience that you don’t realize that you need.

    If I told you that I want you to be a part of my program, then that is an offer.Its an opportunity to be a part of a championship program at a first class school.We are second to none!Other people might have told you that D3s dont offer, but my offer is better than most buddy.

    If you are a parent with a kid that I am calling about, you might want to come watch my team play before you just blurt out that your son really isn't a D3 player. These D3 boys might surprise you!!

    You want to play high level basketball? UMHB Men’s and Women’s programs were a combined 53-7 and both programs played in the Second Weekend of the NCAA Tournament. #winnerswin #goCru #d3hoops
