I am proud to announce I am moving back to Virginia Beach and will be the Director of Basketball at the brand new Virginia Beach Sports Center that will be opening this fall. The VBSC will have 12 hardwood courts and a top-notch track facility.
I really want to try to make it happen in 2022 to get a June Live Period event for the public schools in VA. There’s no reason why teams should have to travel out of state to get exposure when we have facilities right here in our backyard.

My wife gave me the best birthday gift I could ever receive last night. Happy to welcome baby Harlow to the world. Anything is possible for you baby girl.
Any COLLEGE STUDENTS who are local to the 757 with a dream to work in the business of basketball please reach out to me. I may have an opportunity for the right person. They MUST be in the Hampton Roads area in the fall. I want to help the next up.
New NCAA rules for AAU “There is no limit on the number of adjoining state athletes on a team”. This could shake things up some with shoe company teams.
With that being said, I’ll be looking for coaches and trainers to join my team in the near future. If you’re ready to work and want to grow with this amazing project feel free to shoot me a DM. Let’s get to it.
#757
I can’t wait to have open gyms when we open up, not only for our program but the 757 as a whole. Having competitive organized runs CONSISTENTLY is something the area has been missing. October will be here soon!
I am excited to announce my new company
@etcsportgroup
. ETC will be a tournament and event company geared towards providing unique and elite experiences for players, coaches, and parents. The game of basketball has given me a lot and now it is time to write my own story.
Next winter I will run a HS event featuring top teams throughout the East Coast. The event will get National attention.
The 757 needs this energy and I will get it done.
Henrico Sports & Events Center opening October 2023 located just outside of Richmond, VA. The venue will have 12 courts and a flexible feature court. 🔥🔥‼️

a success. There was so much high level talent the entire day! We look forward to the day that we can the gym PACKED with fans and spectators.
#FeastJam
The “my guy” culture in basketball is out of control. Everybody can’t be “your guy”. If you haven’t spoken to someone in months are they really “your guy”? If it’s a genuine relationship you don’t have to promote you know someone.
My goal is to make a MAJOR impact to not only Virginia Beach but entire basketball landscape. I’ll be forever grateful to everyone at
@theskillfactory
especially
@joshburr
for giving me the opportunity to learn and grown.
Big things coming for

My head college coach just called to check in on me and my son that was just born a month ago. I have no idea how he even knew he was born. He has ZERO social media. Since I’ve graduated college 8 years ago he’s never missed calling me on my birthday either.
I want to give a shoutout to our entire staff for making this happen but especially
@ShaneMBaronner
. My man was side by side with me the whole time getting the job done! Bright future in the basketball business without a doubt.
I truly appreciate all the teams, players, parents, and spectators coming out and supporting Feast Jam. This was my first event I’ve ever ran of this scale and wouldn’t be possible without the community’s support.
Any Head Varsity coaches looking to attend Hoopfest Live this weekend to support their kids please shoot me a DM and I will put you on the media list for ONE free entry.
Extending this offer to "HEAD" coaches only NOT the 4th assistant, manager, video guy, etc.
We had our first
@WaveBballClub
College Run today. We had players VWC, Norfolk State, Texas, Bluefield, VCU, JMU, Indiana State, Hampton, and Bluefield College. Appreciate everyone for coming through!
This week was a blessing. I got to run a camp with my high school teammate and good friend with 100+ kids then I got to watch a few of my AAU teams compete in a high level tournament. Thankful everyday for the position I'm in. So much more to do though!

Fall recruiting begins today for D1 coaches attending HS/Prep/JUCO workouts. Recruits be mindful of who's coming to your school to see you.
Also, don't be discouraged if you don't have any schools coming to see you. Just means get to work!
It’s truly a blessing to come home and help the next up. I promise to make the

Check out some of the programs committed so far for the event and more to come!
Don't wait to lock it.
Lately I’ve seen so much emphasis on individual skill development when there are kids who have no idea how to read a pick and roll. There needs to be more of a balance between individual and team concepts when developing players.
Young coaches inspiring to ever work in the NBA. Come down to Portsmouth, VA for the

When babies start walking it’s a complete game changer as a new parent. I feel like I’m in a defensive stance at all times at the house now just waiting for her to trip or fall.
Excited to check out the Portsmouth Invitational this week. Any agents that have players that want to get extra work in please shoot me a DM the VB Sports Center will be available.
Proud to announce I’ll be getting inducted into the

I’m blessed to have the platform I do. I feel like it’s my duty to help the kids in the area the best I can. It’s people like you that keep the 757’s name out there. I appreciate your work ethic and dedication to the kids.
I’m so impressed with the impact
@_Terrellallen

Babies are so ruthless. It’s 4am and I’m rocking my 6 month old back to sleep and she’s wide awake. She looks me dead in my eyes and just farts on me for about 10 seconds straight and didn’t even say sorry or excuse me lol 😂😂
