Beautiful play design, but can you execute blocking any worse? 3 blockers and none of them blocked anybody.

[Wyatt Wheeler @WyattWheeler_]

This one bothered me. Looked like it was set up perfectly to be a big play, only for the three lead blockers to barely touch anyone.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@Whitney_Hartman 100% a perceived Make up call.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@ChuckGrassley And you supported all of it to get us to this point. Get him out of office and let’s see what happens.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@pamelam35 No doubt. Robbery!

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

Western Michigan should protest to no end. That game was over! To say there was 1 second left was truly a crime. Whoever decided that needs investigated!

[Brad Evans @NoisyHuevos]

Protest, Western Michigan.

You won that game.

:01 back on the clock was criminal. Downright deviant.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@Armbruster_D For sure.. no way there was any time left.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@Whitney_Hartman You are in Des Moines and we are in KC. 1587 was good to us tonight. A bit better than BB. 🤣🤪

@CoachPoe_ The attitudes y’all have about beat it or shut up is the exact reason kids are quitting sports. There is learning and then there is embarrassment. Young teams range widely in experience. There is a stopping point. Just be respectful and recognize the situation.

@CoachTomParks @TweetsbyCoachP I just did this with my 3rd graders. Spacing in soccer is similar to what is needed in hoops.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

Fun to see her passing on her hoops knowledge!!

[Devon Carlile @devon_carlile1]

So thankful I got the chance to coach this team again this weekend! I’ve been lucky enough to coach a lot of these girls over the past few years, and it’s been so fun watching them grow as both players and people!! Bright future for @DCG_GirlsBball!!

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

The most improved 3rd grade team in the state of Iowa. The other two teams were already good. 🤪😁

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@dwsooner11 @Huckstar12 Not the point. The arrogance of the answer is the problem. If it was an insurance issue why are the teams able to practice on the other district gyms - just not ‘his?’

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@nickstrong Most people have no idea how the process works.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@FTSraiderball I have seen the same Omaha 3rd grade team do this now three times. Players are very talented but no sportsmanship or respect for the game. So frustrating and makes average players want to quit.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@rayzingler Don’t allow full court press until 5th grade or later and it’s a better experience for all.

[Derek Deprey @derekdeprey]

One day you’re gonna wake up and AAU basketball will be over. No more weekend tournaments, packed gyms, or team hotels. No more “one more game” next weekend.

One day you’ll be out of eligibility for high school basketball. Then college basketball too.

And eventually, the thing that feels like your whole world right now becomes a memory.

So stop playing scared. Shoot your shot. Sprint the floor. Dive on the loose ball. Compete with confidence. Enjoy your teammates. Because one day you’ll wish you could go back and play just one more game with them.

Fear and hesitation have ended way more careers than missed shots ever will.

Just something to think about.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

@RyanGilbert_ @AdamSchefter Aller or Howard: time to see what we have and get ready for the future. 2027 draft has lots of QB’s if we need one, but we need to know.

[Matthew Carlile @mcarlile22]

#Basketball #AAU - 1st game ever for my 3rd grade team. Know AAU and that the press was coming. It was extremely rough. (far beyond normal) I asked the refs to call more fouls. I was told, "Losers complain to the refs and you and your team are clearly losers - shut up!" Fair?
