@SchuringDale Quickness ball handling and spreading floor we’re all key factors in several of the games. It will be so much fun to see how the shot clock changes the game next year. I can’t wait.🏀💪

Illinois High School Basketball is The home of the Original March Madness and we can’t find a better time to play the 3rd place game than a few hours after the semi final game. Really unfortunate for the players and coach’s.

Coach Schuring has always been a true professional and a wonderful mentor. Dales teams have always played hard and been well prepared. This is unfortunate and I know won’t be the last chapter for him. Best of luck Coach🏀💪

Just to clarify for anyone who has seen or heard about my resignation. I did not resign because I am retiring. I resigned because I was asked to do so and I will not coach where I am not wanted and where people are actively working against me.

@mattkell82 @NestoHoops Coach Kelley put a lot of time and effort into this. I know he was taking notes and making sure he was given a solid review.🤣💪

Ben McCollum didn’t flinch after losing three straight games in brutal environments. “When you’re losing, the world is ending. When you’re winning, everything’s perfect.” That’s the lie most people believe. Inside his program, nothing changed. No panic. No celebration. No emotional whiplash. Just a continued commitment to the process. McCollum kept the evaluation simple. Against Illinois, it was a poor start, some growth, and losing plays late. Against Purdue, too many losing plays and a costly offensive rebound. The next game? Fewer losing plays and more winning ones. That was the entire adjustment. Not narratives. Not results. Plays. Here’s what most people miss: the outside world lives in extremes. Inside great programs, everything stays boring. Stable. Grounded in the work. McCollum filters noise ruthlessly. He listens to people who help him improve his bosses, famiand ly, mentors. Social media? Useless. That discipline wasn’t accidental. It came from years in Division II. Getting exposed. Learning how far he still had to go. Making quiet adjustments. Building real confidence through repetition, not praise. The takeaways are simple but uncomfortable: Results lie. Process tells the truth. Don’t chase wins, eliminate losing plays. Noise doesn’t make you better; honesty does. Faith in the work is built long before it’s rewarded. Sometimes it won’t pay off tonight. Sometimes not tomorrow. But if the process is right, it always shows eventually. Question: Where do you see people abandoning the process too early—sports, leadership, or life?
