“Bad shots will beat you faster than anything else" - Rick Majerus

Younger basketball fans don’t really understand what Larry Bird actually did.. Or what he was capable of on a basketball court.. That level of skill, IQ, and clutch mentality doesn’t just exist anymore..

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.

US youth soccer's structure and oversight are fractured. While MLS Next is doing well, US Soccer needs to lead to reclaim control of the amateur pathway and unite professional leagues for true dominance. #YouthSoccer #USSoccer

@darrenrovell 💯

Sarkisian needs to check his own roster. 49 have not listed a major. The most popular major is Physical Culture & Sports (19 players) The second most is Communications & Leadership & Exercise Science.

No shot clock. No 3-point line, Pistol Pete dropped 69 in an SEC game

I remember this one. They drove him crazy. 😂🤣

@ctoddkicker1 @mlycan12 @ImYouthSoccer Really? Name them.

@CUTtheNETS @mlycan12 @ImYouthSoccer Not true regarding ECNL statement. I’ve seen it!!

One year ago, the NCAA blindsided college athletics with unprecedented roster limits. Thousands of student-athletes lost opportunities as coaches were put in the terrible position of cutting and/or de-committing players. Then AFTER the damage was done, the NCAA introduced the “Designated Student Athlete” designation as a way to let some athletes stay without counting against roster limits. But many programs had already made painful decisions because coaches were told the limits were coming and tried to give athletes as much notice as possible. Now we are about to do this AGAIN. The NCAA is expected to approve a 5th year of eligibility next month — after most programs have already recruited their 2027 classes based on the CURRENT rules and CURRENT roster limits. In women’s soccer, we already operate under a restrictive 28-player cap. You cannot recruit for FOUR classes for years, then suddenly force programs to fit FIVE classes onto the same roster without student-athletes paying the price. Because when seniors stay, someone else loses a spot. More cuts. More decommitments. More athletes caught in the middle of ever-changing rules they had nothing to do with. College recruiting happens YEARS in advance. Families and athletes make life-changing decisions based on the rules in place at the time. If 5th years are approved, they should all be classified as DSAs so as to not count against roster limits. Otherwise the NCAA is about to repeat the exact same disaster all over again. #StopChangingTheRules #HereWeGoAgain #DSAThe5thYears

@SteveC24563849 @mlycan12 @ImYouthSoccer Yep. Dont need more than that. Now… Not sure why you’d play NL RL or GA with a 28 player roster. Guessing club dues from bloated roster paid for an extra long bench?

@CUTtheNETS @mlycan12 @ImYouthSoccer My daughter’s U17 team rostered 28 last season.

@THEChrisKessell Lots of variables. Players have options. ECNL is a HS friendly organization. Depends on level & goals of players.

My whole point about HS and club soccer in the US is that they need to work together as opposed to club soccer making HS soccer the enemy and scapegoat. Which is exactly what has happened. Yes. There are absolutely bad HS soccer programs. Nobody says there isn't. That said...

Dawg is that Dillon Brooks playing a game of “Operation” where you have to steal the ball from SGA without being called for a foul 😭 I’M CRYING 😂😂😂

@LaceUpSoccer Did you also complain about the DA? Let’s be honest… HS soccer is garbage. And typically coached by PE teachers.

MLS NEXT just told players they can't play high school soccer starting 2026-27. A 16-year-old now has to choose between their school team and their club pathway. The justification is 'development calendar control.' The reality is a league telling families they own the player's schedule. No written development plan included with that demand. If you're going to take away a kid's choice, you owe them receipts on what they're getting instead.

Real speed footage of Michael Jordan taking flight 🐐

OKC is SHAMELESS Refs called a foul on Harrison Barnes 💀

Single-handedly ruining the game of basketball. Truly a disgrace to the sport.

@finebaum More is More

State Your Case: Would a 24-team College Football Playoff ruin the regular season?

Pistol Pete Maravich once he said in a interview in 1974 that “ I don’t want to play 10 years in the NBA and then die of a heart attack at age 40” He played in the NBA from 1970 to 1980 then died of a heart attack in 1988 at 40 years old 🫪

If you’re a head coach, you already know. It consumes you. It costs you. It challenges you. And you’d do it all over again. Every.Single.Time.

🚨It appears we have upset a lot of D1 coaches who think it is "okay" to send mass emails (that look personal) ON June 15th. Parent and players - Do NOT be fooled into thinking a camp invited email or text is any type of real interest. Request a phone call as easiest way to tell if you are unsure. #TrustUs
