    We hate on kids & their perceived unwillingness to work on their game now days. But we’ve also made it nearly impossible for kids to get in a gym. Either need a membership, pay fees, sign a waiver, bring 2 forms of ID, insurance, 2 adults, know secret handshake etc just to get in

    The backstory to "Bama's System" is the work of @brianmccormick. Plain and simple. Full stop.

    Parents, don’t forget to write your objective on the refrigerator so your kid ms will know what they are learning. If you don’t, the lesson won’t count and it will have been a complete waste of time. #TeachingTips

    If you’re constantly shouting things to players during the game are you showing everyone how much you know? Or are you actually, loudly, admitting all your failings in training your players?

    Neutral offense: needing to create an advantage while playing out of concepts & principles to allow player freedom w/in a certain structure. Ideal anatomy of HC poss: •”Exchanges & Changes” •”Paint. Kick. Extra.” •Into a “Zero” •Hunt “7s & 9s” •Have a “30+ point poss” Ex⬇️

    Allow me to echo LB here & shoutout the INCREDIBLE JOB by EVERY SINGLE WORKER that helped host this tournament. You have no clue what it takes to make this happen until you go thru it. Every single LATech fan should be proud of how their university was represented this week.🧀

    It was a blast. It was my absolute pleasure. Thank you for welcoming me and my family into your family. I got to be around the game I love and represent the school I love. Thank you @LATechWBB.

    Biggest area of coaching development that is LACKING is how to balance work & home. No one talks a/b how be to a coach/spouse/parent. You can’t go to school to “learn” everything you need to be a coach but especially can’t go to a class that teaches you how to be all 3 at once.

    I'm a fan of switching, it's no secret..."but what about the mismatch?" yada yada...well, I really like what you see here from Michel Diouf when he switches on to the PG in transition. Best way to keep the mismatch from occurring is do your best to not let him get the ball back.
