@UNA_Basketball assistant coach @CoachDStutts at the 4th Annual AABC + @Coaching_U Clinic.

[Alabama Association of Basketball Coaches @AABC_Hoops]

Big time start to the AABC + @Coaching_U Clinic w/ Coach Chris Fleming from @AlabamaMBB.

Incredible opportunity to learn from a guy with nearly a decade of NBA coaching experience.

Big thanks to Suntronics for being the premier sponsor of the 4th annual clinic.

Want to learn details behind one of the most explosive offenses in college basketball?

Thrilled to have Chris Fleming (@AlabamaMBB) sharing his elite coaching insights at the 4th Annual @Coaching_U Clinic! A master of spacing & modern NBA concepts.

Super pumped!

HS Basketball in our state got better yesterday. Coaches will have to grow, learn and adapt. Players skill will have to improve. There will be a learning curve but the game will be better for it.

@AlaBCAUpdates @ahsvca we all need to attack this together!

[Andrew Simonson @andrewtsimonson]

This is truly an all-sport problem. It's way past time for us to find a way to get the best 16 or 32 teams in for each sport and put more emphasis on performance than geography.

[Elijah Garrison @egarrison_]

Couldn’t be more true of statements from @CoachCBlakeley in this thread

“Hudl Film Exchanges 🤦🏻‍♂️ So unnecessary. Takes time, some never send the games. Unnecessary Hudl assist work.”

“No more hiding. Everyone has access to what you do & how you do it, statistically speaking. Even playing field. Make decisions with the same information everyone has.”

@AHSAAUpdates @AABC_Hoops Lets mandate @SynergySST for all Schools!

Read below ⬇️

[Chris Blakeley @CoachCBlakeley]

🧵Every year the playoffs remind me how much easier life would be on all #TXHSBB 🏀 coaches if we did 1 of 2 things ⬇️

1. 📊Mandate @MaxPreps Stat entry, *OR*
2. 🎥Get @SynergySST: an open-source platform where all film is accessible to all (price negotiable)

👇🧵Here’s why

[Elijah Garrison @egarrison_]

Happy for my guy @jd_smelser20. I’ll always be grateful for his time pouring into me and our program at Homewood. I am a better person and coach because of JD.

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.”

[Coach U @CoachUwarow]

This is the BEST way to coach in my opinion. I have had my AD question me, friends question me, and parent question me. You build ownership and you build accountability by coaching this way. Plus.....no one wants to hear the head coach talk all the time...not even the head coach.

[Alabama Association of Basketball Coaches @AABC_Hoops]

600+ wins & a proven winner at every level!

From 4 National Championships at the NAIA/DII levels to leading @JaxStateMBB to the Big Dance, Ray Harper’s resume speaks for itself.

History in the making ✍️🏀

Huge congrats to Kaleb Carson on being named ASWA 2nd Team All-State!
