Was on the phone yesterday with a coach who started his career in HS, moved to college and went on to win a Super Bowl.
In talking with him he had this to say, “coaches today work too much and they make their kids work too much. Go have a life and have fun!”
Interesting…
A lot of kids today don't quit basketball because they hate the game.
They quit because it stops being fun.
Too many systems built around pressure and perfection, not passion and growth.
Let's bring the *joy* back into development, it's the key to longevity in this sport.

Lifting with your team 2x/wk in the off-season doesn’t always guarantee you will win a title. It just increases your likelihood of success.
But not training with your team 2x/wk in the off-season almost always guarantee that you will not win a title. It wildly decreases your chances of success.
Yet another program investing MAJOR $ into their weight room & facilities
All the proof you need for how important getting strong & explosive is to athletes

🎯 Focus on it
1991 Chicago Bulls lifting on game day 😤
Back when most thought it was crazy.
The Bulls knew better: morning weights kept them strong, physical, and fresh through the long season + playoffs.
MJ & Scottie didn’t skip it.
Neither should you.
In-season lifting = non-negotiable
I tell you what. Season mens basketball tickets better sell the fuck out. Dude took us to an elite 8, shoved Nebraskas best team ever into a locker, bitched the defending champs, AND he said “nah” to NORTH CAROLINA. Yea he’s my goat
Alabama football director of performance, David Ballou
What would be his biggest tip to young athletes trying to get to the next level?
“A lot of people work hard…
it’s the people that work hard & are able to stack nutrition & sleep & those things on top of it.”
Listen up:
