I lost my mentor todayโฆ
Thank you for tough love, pop flies & loving my mother for 57 years.
You will forever be my hero.
Susan & I Love You, Rest Easy.

Hearing of kids getting offers and not one call to the high school coach ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Iโd prolly call the guy/gal thatโs with them close to 365โฆ just a thought:)

Seeing kids posting their travel schedulesโฆ I Hope they donโt forget about their high school gym for skill work & shooting from April through July.
Had a parent ask me to give them the
#1
thing that would help win their kid an athletic scholarship to the NAIA or D2 level? My reply was, and always will be, the ACT...

Coached my kid in a post season event a few years back... Made an impact on him in a short amount of time... Exemplifies a builder of men

Hallowed ramp at Glass House... EVERY player & coach thinks of that walk up to the floor all year... We are here this week- no tweets of scores, no shovels or belts passed out... Just developing...

Started my career in a frozen push-upโฆTook notes in camps from Meyer, Insell, Mayfield, Rickard, Prudden, Harlowe & RogersโฆI owe them more than I have.
Today, I question if some could identify even 4 of these 7 who pioneered the high school game so much in TN?

High School Girls Basketball Playersโฆ Do you want to keep playing?
Get in the gym, continually
Prep for ACT (D2s stack money) & D3s offer just academic aid
Thatโs a very very small % that play D1โฆ Itโs highly competitive & the Portal puts you at a greater disadvantage.
Headed back to Chapel Hill today... Enjoyed my time with my mentor... Seems to be on the road back to normalcy... Thanks for everyoneโs thoughts and prayers.
Always learn a lot watching the mid major coachesโฆ Bus trips vs Charter flights, Jimmy Johnโs vs Outback, Sleep Inn vs Westinโฆ And they just keep winningโฆ

RIP Coach Dooleyโฆ Wrote me a note when I was 8, still have it today
@GeorgiaFootball
Always listened to the Georgia games on the radio with my dad from that day forward.
Saturdayโ with Larry Munson growing up in Gwinnett County was something I wonโt forget.
I enjoy catching up with former players.. This one had some toughness and could kill a zone! Hope the concession vouchers made up for the chewings

In the ATL today hanging with my mentorโฆ Heโs ready for Game 3 and still gave me some instructions at 81! โGet some rest, busy 4 months approaching for you!โ
The 2019 Class is picking up steam & being viewed by collegiate coaches in various sports..Remember this..Roughly 2% of HS athletes will play at the D1 level..Donโt be consumed by level and go with who wants you & where you can thrive... D2s & NAIAs stack $..Prep for the ACT!
Warms my heart to see this.. A kid doing ball handling in her high school gym.. what a novel idea.
No cones, handler or trainer in site.
Enjoy the run Scott, bright future
