- My mentor. My closest friend. I have waited 48 hrs to post b/c when your friend hurts, you hurt. So I’ll be short. Another example of our profession being imperfect, but what is perfect is TA’s humility & his ability to get off the mat & fight. @andersontobin thank u for being u.
- Laker Fans! Thx for the calls/texts after last nights historic win for @OswegoMBball . As I told the guys we must turn the page and get ready for the elite 8 tonight. Need all of your positive energy and spirit. 7pm Lakers v UW-Whitewater. Be loud, Be proud, Go Laker. BELIEVE!
- Day after the end of season always the hardest. Thank you to my players, my staff, and all the families and friends @OswegoMBball. Truly a memorable season. Congrats @MariettaCollege. Excited to be with my girls again Sophia, Gianna, and my #1 fan Miss Amber. @sunyoswego
- A quick thank you to all of the families and friends of @OswegoMBball for following us down in Philadelphia this weekend. We are looking forward to the Sweet 16 next weekend. This was a historic weekend for our program that resulted in our school record 27th win. Go Lakers!
- Great time with my new friend @FrankCaliendo yesterday in ‘Cuse. His show was incredible.This guy is a college hoops junkie and he can evaluate players. He’s got many friends in D1, but I’m his D3 guy. We got him on board with the Lakers. @OswegoMBball
- @OswegoMBball checks in at #4 this week. Our highest national ranking in program history. Our focus needs to be on improvement at this point during the season, but still a recognition for our alums/fans to enjoy. Go Lakers!
- Winners win. Credit to @FDUKnights for giving this guy a shot. Seems obvious that a guy who has 400 W’s/knows how he wants to play/recruit/is a proven problem solver would be a worthy hire. Yet 2 many find reasons not to hire small college coaches instead of reasons to hire them.Tobin Anderson dispels coaching credo in leading Fairleigh Dickinson to March Madness trib.al/L2GBgl4
- Congrats @JereSparks23. Officially a pro. Thank you for sharing your moment with me + our campers. 1800 pts, 100 wins, All American, 3 NCAAs, 2 SUNYAC titles…but your legacy lies in all the lives you’ve touched and people you have led here @sunyoswego. @OswegoMBball
- @ClarksonMBB coaching alumni! Here in Dayton celebrating @andersontobin and @FDUKnightsMBB appearance in the NCAA Tourney. This. Is. Awesome!
- To say this puts a smile on my face is an understatement. Tuesday off night/dinner date with my oldest Sophia.
- Daddy-Daughter weekend in Indy to see Caitlyn Clark and the Fever play the Sky. Early surprise bday gift for Sophia. Caitlyn is her favorite athlete.
- The only ranking that matters is the final ranking. Congrats @OswegoMBball on achieving our highest ever ranking in program history finishing the season at #11. d3hoops.com/top25/men/2021… @sunyoswego @OswegoAthletics
