@coachwes_23 Because D1 Coaches see those and think the kid is only at the non D1 level. This came from several Coaches for years. Ive been told personally by them.
It’s pathetic. AAU has helped so many kids. People talk shit about AAU because high school coaches get the damn kids for 8 months out of the year and we are supposed to duplicate that in 3 months. People are dumb. Yes, AAU has bad basketball but so does high school.
Ppl are saying that AAU is only for exposure and college coaches. They are missing the fact that AAU is actually really good for development. Playing other top kids and different programs from across North America not only lets you know where you’re at, it also helps you develop.
