My greatest weakness in need of growth for the 2026-2027 season: Stop coaching undesirable outcomes during live balls. They didn't want to make the mistake. They want to make everyone proud of them. Let it go and give them courage. If it needs addressed save it for the film room.

Some INSANE slams in NBA history 🤯

We try to retain players using this method. Too many girls are quitting bball in America. In the first 10 minutes we play tag w/ a lot of laughing and smiling. We greet everyone, use their first name, get a high 5/fist bump, tell them we're glad they're here & celebrate others.

Coach Cal’s right — administration matters. But at the high school level, it takes more than that.

You need administration that believes in you, coaches/players that are all in, parents that get involved in program, and a community that doesn’t just cheer on Friday nights… but financially supports the program too.

Great high school programs aren’t built by one person. They’re built when everybody is invested — with their time, their trust, and their resources.

If everybody isn’t rowing the boat in the same direction, don’t complain when the whole thing ends up spinning in circles.

@CoachJWilliams Coach, there is nobody more deserving of success than you. Your willingness to share your knowledge and wisdom with other coaches makes you the GOAT in my opinion. The success that I have been able to have in my coaching career is a testament to you. My success is your success!

When I was hired to coach varsity basketball at just 26 years old I thought I was God's gift to basketball. You couldn't tell me anything. I knew it all.

Well, heading into Christmas break in my first season I was 0-9. And I realized quickly how little I knew. My players were getting suspended. My offense was messy. My emotions were all over the place.

I dreaded people asking me how it was going. Quite frankly my team was awful and I had no control. I quickly felt like maybe coaching wasn't my thing.

After I got done throwing a pitty party for myself, I hit the reset button.

I started asking others for help. I read more books. I hired assistants. Every week I'd text or call another coach and pick his or her brain.

Turns out, you're much better off with others in your corner than standing alone with your chest out. Shocking. I know. But as coaches it's what we default to.

"My stuff is the best."
"I don't need to adjust."
"I don't have time to read."
"It's the kids not my system."

So when I finally won, the emotion that overtook me was gratitude.

I was thankful for every person that poured into me when I didn't deserve it. I was thankful to God for giving me a platform that I didn't think would ever happen. I found myself extra grateful for every little thing that I had disregarded beforehand.

My advice to young coaches entering the field...Acknowledge that you don't have all the answers and that you need help. Find a good staff. Ask for a mentor. Read. Watch extra film. Success starts with humility.
