As a head manager, our job isn’t just packing bags & running clock. 🏀

We have the ability to build a culture within our manager group. A great manager staff has the ability to internally run itself.

Here’s how I helped build a high-level student manager culture.🧵👇

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

Got a workout in with Kaiden White, D1 guard in the portal. He’s always wanting to get work in and improve.

Focus today was simple: get a lot of reps and see the ball go through after a heavy lift.

• Form shooting
• Midrange: 4x5
• 3s: 7x10
• 50 free throws

Form → mid-range (4x5) → 3PT spots (7x10) → 14 corners (7 each, <1 min) → Beat the Pro (make = +1, miss = +2 opponent, play to 20) → 15 3’s in 59 sec (can’t stay in same spot)

Everything was competition… loser runs!

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

Appreciate the work. These two are always locked in and love to compete.

Kai Spears (D1 Guard | Transfer Portal) @kjspears10

Wyatt Fricks (D1 Wing/Forward | NBA Workout Next Week) @wyattfricks2

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

Workout

Form shooting → mid-range (4x5) → balance shooting → combo moves off two → 3PT shooting (5x5) → lifts/drifts → game-like relocate 3s.

Finished with pressure work:
2 in a row at 10 spots (under 2 min)
3 in a row at 5 spots + 1 make at 5 straight spots (under 3 min)

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

Got in the gym with D1 guard Emily Bratton (Marshall WBB) today. Coming off a medical redshirt year, so the focus right now is just getting back in rhythm, building confidence, and stacking quality reps before offseason workouts.

[Wilson Dubinsky @WilsonDubinsky]

Best manager out there. Has woken up at 7am to rebound for me every day from June-March as a freshman. Nothing but love 🤘🏿💚

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

🏀 Form shooting
🏀 Mid-range: 4 spots, 5 makes
🏀 3PT: 5 spots, 10 makes
🏀 Movement shooting: trails, lifts, drifts, catch & shoot, transition, escapes, pull-ups
🏀 Free throws to finish

Nothing crazy, just intentional reps, even on lighter days. Where consistency is built.

[Donavin Penn @PennDonavin]

Got work in today with a couple D1 guards after a heavy lift—focus was getting shots up, loosening the body, and seeing the ball go through.

Appreciate the work from Bryce Slay (Marshall) and Kaiden White (Transfer Portal).

Wow, this Zoom Episode was absolutely HIGH LEVEL!

I appreciate everyone who took the time to listen on the call, and, most importantly, shoutout to the impromptu guest speakers that hopped on, and the organic conversations we had!

Special thanks to @cihangunduzz for the insight into International Basketball levels (Turkey) and Video/Scouting analysis

@PCSportsGroup for talking about the NIL process with recruits and the process of coaches reaching out to Agents

@KyleBarlow4 for the REAL way on how to connect and build genuine relationships (great listen for anyone going to the Final 4)

@jacksonpavvv and @Javan_2022 for stopping by and talking about their recruiting stories and what coaches should do and NOT do when recruiting players (HS or Portal)

and @MKrstich5585 for teaching us different ways to stand out with the video process as a Video Coordinator.

Below is the recording link with passcode to access! Will keep you all updated when the next Zoom Call will be! Probably after the Final 4!
