From the first day he stepped on campus
@BigFreddieG
was determined to prove every single person that told him he wouldn’t be able to earn a scholarship let alone play in the Big 12 wrong. Now they can watch him on ESPN twice a week.
Crazy thing about success is everyone only sees the end result
No one else knows the struggles you went through, the hours you spent working in the dark with no one watching and the days you got your work in when you really didn’t want to.
The end of a season is never easy. Especially when you’re losing a group of sophomores like ours. Proud of what this team accomplished and the extra hours they spent in the gym and the weight room when no one was watching. Even more proud of the men they’ve become.
Bigs, how are you effecting the game offensively without the ball just being thrown to you on the block.
1. Run the floor
2. Set Great Screens - Roll Hard
3. Relentless on the Boards
4. Great Hands - Catch The Ball in Tight Windows?
5. And 1’s

A lot of hours in the gym working when no one was watching! Proud of who you’ve become! The story doesn’t stop here! But as always there’s more work to be done.

! Big 12 Player of the Week was earned in the work two years ago when he pushed himself through his 2nd extra workout of the day after being on scout team all practice.
Surround yourself with people who are going to add to your toolbox not take away! Find the program that’s going to make you the best player you can be! Have the friends & relationships that will push you to your goals! Be around people who want you to be successful in life!
It’s crazy Lebron was named “The Chosen One” at 18 and has lived up to every expectations. While also maybe being the most criticized athlete of all time.
Every player should listen to this short clip
It’s not cool to..
Get in an extra workout in instead of getting on the game
Put in the extra work to get A’s & B’s instead of C’s & D’s
To get that extra set in instead of cheating the set
But it’s what it takes to be different
Proud of you
@kj_jenkins5
! All the work you’ve put in and time you’ve been willing to spend is paying off! The work is just getting started! Family for life!
No one that is successful ever talks about how easy it was to get to the there or how easy it is to stay at that level.
But everyone wants it to be easy. The higher you go the harder it gets.
Our initial Fab 50 JUCO Freshmen list has been released. The list will be updated and extended throughout the season.
Congrats to all of the players who made the list, and congrats on your invite to the

Getting to a point where yall’s 2K MyPlayers are doing more extra work in the gym and weight room than you are.
Invest more in yourself than your 2K player

I have countless memories growing up at Globe Life Park
-2011 ALCS Game 6 vs the Tigers
-Hamilton’s 490ft Home Run
-Marlon Byrd’s Walkoff Grandslam vs The Yankees
-7 Straight Opening Days with my Dad
But sitting in a cool 75 degrees every game is a game changer
Every great team or organization has a lot of people who are really good at their role. Someone has to buy in to doing the dirty work. Google isn’t Google if no one picks up the trash at the end of the day.
Lebron was the most hyped High School athlete of all time. In 20 years he’s had no scandals. Lived up to every piece of the hype all while being the most consistent athlete in sports in the 2000’s. People just need to enjoy this run while you still can.
Everybody wants the answer on how to become elite. How to separate themselves. But in reality are you willing to do what it takes to get there? There’s people chasing the exact same dream as you but when you’re turning off 2k at 3 AM they’re waking up and chasing it.
Is success hard to handle because you have to sustain the same level of work ethic to stay at the top or because people feel the need to bring more people along when their successful.
The higher the level the more consistent you have to be to stick. It’s not who you are on your best days. There is a lot of players that are really talented on their best days. But who are you day in and day out?
Gym full of coaches at Richardson in the morning.
The mid day crowd at McKinney will be full of coaches.
Afternoon/ Evening will be crowded for Faith Family and Duncanville with coaches.
Texas is going to be flooded by universities from all over the next few weeks.
If you listen to any Hall of Fame speech 2 things always stick out to me
1. They never talk about how easy it was to make it the HOF.
2. They never say they did it all on their own.
To achieve something great there will always be adversity and you will never do it on your own
We are excited to announce the hiring of assistant coaches Nick Mora and Vinny Barron.
