If you aren’t regularly awestruck by how amazing life is you’re dumb: -we live in a free country -gyms exist -grocery stores exist -NFL Sundays happen 20+ times a year -you and your friends can get baked at a Coldplay concert -you can build yourself into a superhero in a few months of hitting the gym -you have access to every song in the world on your iPhone -every food item in the world has been hunted and gathered for you (grocery stores) -you didn’t have to spend your entire life figuring out how to make a car… you were born into a world where they’re already invented -you could be working in a coal mine in a third world country 16 hours a day breaking your lower back for less than $1 -you’re spinning on a sphere in an infinite universe and the fact you’re alive is a 1 in 500 trillion miracle If anyone complains in front of you them they’re an idiot :)

@bertram_br18513 @GLIACadmirer Not a fan of either team, Bert. Just stating the obvious

#10DaysOfBall @GLIACadmirer Steph Curry’s ability to shoot the basketball is the greatest SKILL of all time, of any sport. There is not a single athlete, from any other sport, that has mastered a skill better than Steph has mastered shooting. To be continued…

@fadule_ Holy fuck that’s the dream

The plan: -hit the gym after a brutal work week because you need something to make you feel good -meet your boys at a dive bar for March Madness, hit it off with a chill bartender in her late 30s with an amazing body -let her grab you by your inner elbow at closing time and tell you to stay, help the male employees move tables because you don’t wanna feel useless -go to her condo where her friends are partying, get warm hugs from the women (strippers) and talk about lifting with the men (firefighters) -get paired into teams for a karaoke sing-off, be an encouraging audience member while couples sing F*ck You by Cee Lo Green and Everybody Talks by Neon Trees, then sing Picture by Kid Rock with the bartender and absolutely bring the house down -midway through everyone joins in, the moment peaks when all the women sing “I was headed to church” to which the men roar back “I WAS OFF TO DRINK YOU AWAY” -the crowd erupts in jubilation and tells you and the bartender “how good you look together” -go to her bedroom and smash in the moonlight pouring in the window then smoke cigarettes on her balcony talking about Interstellar and your secret fantasies (find out you both daydream about moving to the Florida panhandle to write a novel) -realize there’s probably something wrong with you because the only girls you connect with are 5 years older than you, also realize you can’t remember the last time you didn’t want a night to end (this makes you 10% sad 90% wildly grateful to be alive) -text your groupchat “Life is good boys” and get 7 ‘love’ reacts (they’re doing blow)

@CoachDoty Casually bringing up that you beat them three times in a row is crazy! A classic Doty tweet

I coached against Ben McCollum across six seasons. We built our roster and our defensive system with the goal of taking them down. While we beat them three times in a row, they always flexed greater winning four D2 National Championships and beating us a large majority of the time. There is no team we studied more as a staff than McCollum’s teams. Here is what he does better than most coaches in the country: *Point guard development: Ben McCollum is to college basketball what Andy Reid is to NFL football. Reid is widely considered the best QB coach developing Donovan McNabb, Alex Smith, and Pat Mahomes. If you think Bennett Stirtz is good for Drake, you should have seen McCollum’s point guard Trevor Hudgins (2x National POY) who signed and played with the Houston Rockets. Before Hudgins was National POY Justin Pitts. Simply put, McCollum always has the best point guard in the country. He develops them and they play the entire game. Stirtz leads the country at 39.4 MPG; Hudgins was at 37.7 MPG. McCollum’s methodical and controlled style of play protects them from injury and their team defense protects them from foul trouble. Stirtz was a second team all-conference player in our D2 league last season. He is now one of the best players in the country in NCAA D1 and a serious NBA prospect. No one develops PG’s better than McCollum. *Team Defense: No one gets players, who shouldn’t be able to guard, to be better on D than McCollum. Mitch Mascari should get blown by every possession. Daniel Abreu shouldn’t be able to guard 6’10+ big men. Bennett Stirtz should be attacked off the bounce constantly to wear him out and get him in foul trouble. Opposing coaches know these things and try them. But it doesn’t work well. McCollum’s best, and most underrated strength, is coaching team defense. His guys are tough, physical, legal, smart, play for each other in the gaps, take pride in winning their individual defensive matchup, and they don’t get tired. Plus, he always has one bona fide elite on-ball defender on his roster (see Isaiah Jackson and Diego Benard) to shut down elite guards. *Shot developer: Many college coaches don’t develop or change their player’s jump shots. Shots typically get worse for months at a time before they get better and most players are stubborn and/or not there long enough before transferring to their next school. McCollum develops shooters. One example is Mitch Mascari. Here is his shooting splits over the past five seasons: *Fr: 7/27 3PT - .259 *So: 20/60 3PT - .333 *Jr. 56/120 3PT - .466 *Sr. 82/171 3PT - .480 *Gr. 87/214 3PT - .407 (vs. D1 closeouts) It isn’t just Mascari either. A key reason Stirtz went from second team all-conference at the D2 level to the Larry Bird MVP of the Missouri Valley Conference is because of his improved perimeter shot. His last season in D2, Stirtz was 36/110 from 3PT (.327). This season at Drake he is 62/156 3PT (.397). He is perhaps shooting 80% from 3PT on “big shots” too. For perhaps McCollum’s best shot development job, see Ryan Hawkins, who starred for four years at NW Missouri State before transferring and being All-Big East at Creighton his final season. *Master in-game manipulator: As Ben’s former assistant Austin Meyer says, “You’ll play the game the way Ben McCollum wants you to play.” I’ve never seen, or coached against, someone who manipulates pace the way that Ben does. He can play his point guard the entire game as a result. Most players don’t want to play this way. It’s slow, sometimes boring, it’s controlled, there isn’t a lot of freedom, and the point guard usage rate is amongst the highest in the country (I.e. the PG gets to create in this system while others don’t). However, McCollum’s innate ability to identify selfless, no-ego players during the recruiting process allows him to get the buy-in needed to operate this way and at his pace. “Press them.. just speed them up”… Good luck with that.
