Having a LOCK DOWN defender on your team is just as valuable as having a prolific scorer.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE DEFENSIVE DRILLS TO START PRACTICE:
I created this Defensive Drill as a D2 Head Coach, as a warm up @ the beginning of my practices. With defense being a high priority for our team, it was important that I started practices w/ a Defensive Drill! #DrDefense

Recruiting Rule #5:
1st offers are special! When you see a special player, and they are on your radar before anyone else...with no offers, offer them. Why wait? Then stay in their #1 spot by making them a priority until they sign! THEY WILL ONLY HAVE ONE 1ST OFFER!

Assistant Coaches shouldn't be afraid to talk to their Head Coach about taking another job to help advance their career...in fear that they will either get fired OR their coach will treat them a certain way. Head Coaches should want their assistants to advance in their career.

A DOBO should be one of the highest paid positions on a coaching staff. This position is so very critical to holding a program together. I just wanted to take a moment to recognize DOBOs across the country. You are appreciated for what you do! #NationalDoboDay

🚨DECREASE TURNOVERS🚨
TOO MANY TURNOVERS LAST SEASON?
Start practice w/ 15 balls. Everytime there's a turnover, have a coach take that ball away. When all 15 balls are gone, either practice continues w/o balls OR entire team runs a down & back in 11 sec to gain a ball back.

Recruiting Rule #1:
Never let the best players in your area get picked up by out of area schools because you were out-recruited. Go after them with all of your heart. Show them that you want them. Roll out the red carpet!

Basketball 101: If your Big Man gets the ball in the paint and scores easily, don't run a play the next time down the court...tell your PG to clear everyone out, and go right back into the post. If something is unstoppable, why run a play that goes away from what is working?

Basketball Secret (but not a secret):
Watching Film increases your game in a great way. It gives you an advantage over those who don't. It brings an IQ boost to your game that not watching the game can't. If you don't watch the game, there's a part of your game you'll never see.

My very first practice agenda as a D2 Head Coach (2017-18). Wanted to share...had several coaches asked to see an example. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We had a great season. Followed this model all season. (23-6 Overall, 15-3 Conference)

The VERY drill (and video) that I used as a D2 Head Coach to open most of my practices! We had 15 players, so we had to make 15 lay-ups in a row, or we would start over, and stay there until 15 layups were made. Then we would switch sides and do the same.

Coaching is not like a regular job. It is a different kind of grind. To be a good coach and to do it effectively, it takes all of you. Everyone may not understand what you go through Coach, but that's ok, because the love for what you do and for those players is what drives you!

Coaching staffs that are strong in Player Development approach recruiting differently. They don't have to have a ready made player. If they see what they need to see in a player, they are confident that they can take it from there to develop the rest.

As a coach that is looking for your next position, you may hear "it's not about what you know, its about who you know". What if you don't know a person that can call an AD/Coach for you? I would say this...you DO know someone! His name is Jesus. Trust Him and keep applying!🙏🏽

An assistant coach should never be afraid of talking to their head coach about their aspirations to climb higher, go after another job, or asking them to help them with a career move....out of fear that they will begin to treat them poorly, or begin to push them out the door.

Not choosing a player or a coach because they have a gap in their resume is common. But you never know, that person may be a diamond in the rough. There may be a reason for that gap. I love helping people who have gaps in their resumes or are overlooked. They need opportunity too

ON-BALL DEFENSE:
You must teach players to be hungry for the ball. If they are not plotting to get the ball or making life HARD for the ballhandler, they are NOT playing DEFENSE. Days of defenders just shuffling along with ball handlers & calling it defense are over. #DrDefense
