Adam Silver says the NBA is “reassessing” the status of G League Ignite moving forward, but isn’t sure what the future of the program is. Said the introduction of NIL/etc in the college basketball landscape has removed the lack of an ability to make a living from the equation.

Dinos Trigonis ( @Trigonis30 ) has an incredible track record of identifying future NBA players. That’s why the @NBA chose @PangosAACamp to be one of the first HS camps unaffiliated with a shoe/apparel company to be approved for NBA scouts to attend. Look at the numbers ⬇️

Regardless of one’s politics, it says a lot about America’s dynamism that a guy teaching and coaching HS basketball in Western Nebraska in 1994 could become a two-term Governor of Minnesota and Vice Presidential nominee for a major party in 2024.

@GarthGlissman Definitely. I am fairly sure he was an assistant in that team. My questioning was whether I circled the right guy lol. Also did have some people from Alliance reply saying that’s him. I think I may have actually been at this game skipping school!

Among the 7 Nebraska HS graduates currently in the NFL, 3 played at the University of Nebraska and 2 played FCS-level football. The takeaway for young players: There are various ways to get to the top of the mountain. Keep grinding!

This data is disheartening. HS sports can provide a path to upward social mobility and instill valuable life lessons. We should work hard to preserve these opportunities for students at @OmahaPubSchool and urban school districts across the country.

An excellent representation of population shifts in Nebraska over the last ~70 years. Most notably, Millard goes from Class D to three of the largest Class A schools. Notable declines in class size include Falls City, Pawnee City, Neligh, and Minden.

The takeaway is being a head HS coach offers leadership opportunities — e.g., developing strategy/culture, earning the trust of players and their families, and making tough decisions about playing time, discipline, etc. — that are transferable to higher levels of competition.

3 of the 4 coaches going to the Final Four were High School or Prep School Coaches in 2010 That plus the success Bucky McMillan had this season at Samford Maybe more D1 College AD’s should look to hire coaches from successful High School Programs
