Try not to get caught up on level…
I’ve seen D1 recruits not see the floor at NAIA level. I’ve seen D2 players without a D1 offer coming out of HS end up at D1 programs. There isn’t a perfect science to recruiting.🏀🤔🏀🏀🎥

Guys all say they want to lead a team to a Championship, but few are willing to put in the WORK to do things the RIGHT WAY every time to achieve greatness. Thank you @KingAC03_ for leading this team for the past two years. You will be missed!

There’s alway an empty gym somewhere to improve your game. If you can’t find one, you aren’t looking hard enough! Get better everyday, Quality over Quantity.

There is a fine line between confidence and arrogance! Those who know the difference, know how to act on and off the court.🏀

5 years and I want to thank @CoachHuddLynn and @BCUCoach_WALTON for giving me my start in college basketball. As well as @coachjeffprice ,@HSUCoachNorwood, and @CoachChiefMB for allowing me to mature and grow in the business.

Had great question asked yesterday…
“How do you evaluate talent while recruiting?”
For me it’s simple depending on level.
Are you a 3 level scorer?
Can you finish at rim? Can you shoot the 3?(35%and higher)
Can you create your own shot/shoot the midrange?
Need at least 2/3🏀🏀

Day 14 of Keiser Kids Camp! Teaching how to retreat dribble. You shouldn’t learn a step-back before learning the basics. @KUSeahawksMBB

Level is important, but fit matters most. Listen to coaches recruiting. Do they tell you what’s lacking or how/who will help improve your game? Can they tell you where and when you fit in their offense? You find right Fit, u will reach the level u want.

It’s easy to evaluate talent after all the experts weigh in…. But can you find that diamond in the rough?

It’s scary how much talent is out there! I wouldn’t be stacking schools against one another. Find your fit! Make sure the head coach shares same basketball mentality you do!🏀🤔🤯

Moved down here about 5 years ago. Best move of my life. You only have 4 years of eligibility, make sure you find the right fit. If you’re good enough people will notice.

What a difference 1 year made for my guy @coachmike1997 from 10 PPG to 19PPG, and 37% to 41% from 3! Now coaching at Lynn University!!
Ask my guys about his 250-400 shot workouts. Still one of the hardest workers I’ve ever coached.

Good luck to everyone competing in ATL, as well as the other events going on this weekend! There are still a lot of coaches out there looking for players that make the extra pass and play team 🏀.

Some of the best players I’ve coached were players with Life experiences. They had confidence yet were humble, they were intelligent yet coachable, and most importantly knew when to enjoy life and when to work! CAN’T COACH MOTOR.@coachmike1997, @_JPalmer23 , @branb_10 @Marko4KU

Life is all about balance. My guys still playing high school ball, LIVE in the moment. If you’re good enough you will be found. Life is too short to not enjoy the ride.

If you get to play at a higher level but have to pay for room and board, is that deal breaker?

It’s been my experience, after an individual hour workout guys start losing focus. This is when we give them a goal-make 250 3’s. Reps can be done anywhere, make your floor time worth it this summer. If you need drills, don’t hesitate to ask a Coach.

A lot of camps out there this spring and summer! Get out there, be scene, and make connections.🏀🏆🏀📹🤓

HS guys looking to play shooting guards at next level…
After a good workout try
5 spots 7/10 midrange
5 spots 7/10 from 3!
If you can’t make 70% from both, you maybe a Shooter, but in some coaches 👀 you aren’t a Shot maker!
What’s more important to you? 🤔🏀🤔

With all the spring basketball going on it’s important to remember:
1. Don’t forget the fundamentals
2. Team ball gets noticed by veteran coaches
3. Find the right fit for your style of play

Talked with former Pro yesterday and we agreed the pure fundamentals are really lacking in today’s youth.
Jump stop>Step back
Left hand layup>Euro step
Take defense gives you>forcing move

Great coaches ask players about their “Why”?
“Why do you play the game of basketball? “
I believe the Great ones understand what drives their players, and then they Teach the “Why”.
Teachers make the best coaches!🏀

AAU has created a faster pace brand of basketball. The game has evolved. Coaches want to play fast but under control….🤔
