Shoutout Collin Gillespie. Best guard out of Philly in a while. Some will have revisionist history but he was on the 'B' Philly AAU teams. Had to scratch and claw for Nova to offer him late. All he did was cook kids who were more highly regarded. Truly got it out the mud!

This Michigan frontcourt is strong, but I don't think they've seen anyone as strong as Tobe Awaka.

There’s often a time while reporting a story where I get off the phone with someone I’ve interviewed and think, “OK, I’m gonna have a REALLY good story here.” For this story, that was former Marshall coach Bob Pruett, the fifth person I was able to reach to talk abt Randy Moss.

He ran a 4.25 and vertical jumped 47 inches—and that’s only part of what made a frigid day in 1998 in Huntington, WV so mind blowing. The oral history of Randy Moss’ Pro Day, a show like the NFL had never seen before or since. Free story: nytimes.com/athletic/71405…

@Anthony40545846 Cause he would have to go to the same exact scheme that runs a 4-3 in which they would allow him the same freedom he was given at Miami. Thats a hard get cause every team he’s mocked too runs a 3-4 with no 4-3 teams drafting early needing an edge.

“What makes you think getting your squat up makes you a high level athlete.” Then proceeds to spend every day selling everyone on the concept that doing seated good mornings will make you sprint faster lol
Justin Mucci@muccistrength

Bo Jackson did not lift weights. What makes you believe that getting your squat up will just automatically make you a high level athlete? It’s not to say that lifting is bad, but this example goes to show that improving performance goes way deeper than just adding load and more resistance as an athlete.

@arodgers_3 Brake/plant/separation step or wide base crossover out of it. The fast feet replace, like you see in the video, is the least efficient way to get out of any type of break or change direction.

I Feel like it varies by the player as far as steps out of breaks. But it’s either 3 or 4 with curls. Anything more is wasted movement and a good DB is driving. I feel like teaching 4 is the best way to teach in order to get consistent results overall. Break on inside foot
Tyler Epefanio@CoachEpefanioWR

@arodgers_3 Steps are overcoached. I hope he has them running out of their breaks at a sharp 45-degree angle in this instance—not rounding—with a violent, sudden hip drop that gives no indicators.

@JamieDixon_FIT When I played in the PSAC there were 4 dudes from the conference who would become long-term NFL starters & a Harlon Hill Trophy winner.

I played Division II ball. All-American. All-Decade. I played with guys who transferred from D1 schools and they all said the same thing — the talent is better than why they thought it would be. So when I see kids say, “I’ll go D2, get some film, then transfer up to D1…” I just laugh. Division II isn’t JV, it’s not JUCO. To think you’ll make a pitstop there and dip is crazy. Upper-tier D2 is full of grown men. 22–23 years old (now a days probably older). Four to five years deep in real strength programs. Strong. Fast. Violent. Many of them were D1 talent who were late bloomers, undersized at 17, or just overlooked. The gap between high-level D2 and lower-level D1? Razor thin. Sometimes nonexistent. When I was coaching at UL I was shocked at how terrible some schools we played were (NMSU, TXState, etc). Not all that glitters is gold.

Merrimack v Siena is as good a hoops game you’re gonna see this season. Freshman guard Kevair Kennedy is the real deal!! Any SEC team, there goes your future starting point guard.

Yikes: David Bailey has gone viral for having the WORST performance at the change of direction drill we've ever seen. This was extremely hard to watch...🤧

@SuaKCravens Very small percentages of them dudes actually know talent and know ball. Can’t put much into them star rankings. You’re seeing “5-stars” transfer out after 1 season & become a 2-star portal player.

STOP CHANGING KIDS STAR RATINGS BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T COMMIT TO WHERE YOU THOUGHT OR WANTED THEM TO GO YOU WEIRDOS !!!! Grown ass men playing with these kids real careers because of agenda and politics smh I’m so sick of this shit. Then yal wonder why some “5 Stars” are busts and why the “2 star” was actually a 5 star in disguise! Because these fake ass recruiting sites have relationships with the coaches , agents, and other sites, so they created a good ole boys club that does nothing but hurt your child’s future. All so these “insiders” stay connected with the coaches & agents to better their validity while using your kid to get there. Sick work foreal 😵‍💫
