PLAYERS: Transition defense starts with taking good shots. Launching contested 3’s early in a possession puts a lot of pressure on your D.
PLAYERS: If you can just do one thing GREAT on the court then DEFEND. If you can score but can’t guard you won’t play much. #DefenseWins
PLAYERS: With the basketball season just around corner make sure you are excelling ACADEMICALLY so you are eligible to compete all season!

"The 3 people who must be great each day for program success: 1) Head Coach 2) Best Player 3) Point Guard" -Don Meyer
PLAYERS: Your coach wants “everyday guys”. If everyone is not 100% bought in 100% of the time, your team will fall short in the long run!
PLAYERS: If you associate with negative, unmotivated people you will develop these traits. Surround yourself with the BEST crew possible!
COACHES: You can be intense with your kids; you can demand a lot; you can coach them really hard.. But only if they trust and respect you.
PLAYERS: Embrace your coach correcting your game! This is a sign of him/her being invested in your development. This is a blessing!
Great assistant coaches anticipate the needs of the program. They don’t wait to be asked to do something; they take initiative.
