Uncoachable vs. Coachable:

Uncoachable players
-Take it personally
-Feel they’re being singled out
-Become very defensive

Coachable players

-Want to be coached
-See it as a way to get better

ATTENTION Coaches:

Roy Williams was once asked, “What would you do differently if you could do it all over?”

His eyes immediately welled up with tears and his bottom lip started to quiver.

“If I could do it again I would do a much better job prioritizing my family.”

EM Top 150 prospect Tray Jackson @_Trayjacks looking great vs Howard Pulley. 6’7 wing Knocking down triples, strong dribble drives, finishing in transition, using length to force deflections on the perimeter, cleaning up the glass

29 of the 32 first-round draft picks were two-sport athletes and 14 of the 29 were three-sport athletes. Next time your personal trainer or your coach tells you you need to specialize in football, maybe you really need a new trainer or coach.

Detroit Western’s Tray Jackson (22 pts) had quite a season and he ended it with another strong performance (watch the video) even though he was double teamed. Unfortunately, he needed more help to win this game. You are fun to watch @_Trayjacks @WesternHoops

Excited to get this kid in the program next year. Good luck tonight @_Trayjacks ! https://t.co/ELs5HRIeP2

I still wonder if somebody – somewhere – was practicing more than me"

In his final high school basketball game, Terrell Jones (@itstkadee) scored 20 pts. and fouled out late in the 4th. Eufaula lost the state championship by one point, but this kid left it all out on the court. Not a dry eye in the room after what he said at the podium. @EufaulaCS
