Not for nothin’, but the one weakness any HS player can fix is a poor handle / loose dribble / no left, etc. It’s the one skill you that don't need a basket or a teammate and it could be fixed for 15 minutes a day without leaving your basement.

The league should be embarrassed by what the ballscreener is allowed to do now.

Here’s where they miss Horford. Joe playing Queta way too much. Drummond around the rim all night. Where’s Garza? Anyone?

@mid_madness The Palestra

The new A-10 commissioner wants the league to put down roots and do the tournament in the same spot every year. Where should they do it?

BC needs to hire Luke Murray just so his old man will be around. If there’s anyone that could lighten up that place, it’s Bill.

agree 100%, Rick. I was thinking during the entire game, what would I do differently to stop him? And I couldn't come up with anything.

I realize these NFHS announcers aren’t pros but between the guy pronouncing Josh Roux as Josh “Rocks” and the camera man missing half the game, @nfhs needs to issue some refunds.

...or you have the admin who says we'll give you a certain % COLA increase BUT only if you take on a higher % of health care costs. Gee thanks. What a deal. #shameful

@prepballstars agree 100% - and they're just not big enough to see or throw over the top against a press and often end up w/ having kids trying to dribble through it, which is exactly the habit we don't want kids to pick up.

AAU coaches 5th grade and under: I know this won’t be popular to say but I wish you wouldn’t press. It’s bad basketball and not good for developing players. And it’s not realistic at the highest levels. You have 3rd graders pressing the whole game. To win, I guess. It’s awful.

@BostonHeraldHS 100%!

One of the best days of the year without a doubt. Larry K was the legend

Today used to mark the annual pilgrimage to Franklin for the seedings mtg. @CoachScollan, @hooptown, @CjMastrangelo, Joe Cacc, so many others, sweating it out over bad coffee and coin flips. And the legend Larry Kelleher running the show! Those were the days!! @BostonHeraldHS

Yessir

@gh183654 Especially 20 minutes before the game starts

@thelesserCoachK Untucked shirts reflect poorly on the coach.

When the JV game is a nailbiter and your varsity guys are out of the locker room watching, and the varsity ref comes over and tells you your guys need to tuck their shirts in, well, in poker that would be called a tell

Bitter Bill Polian, who lost 3 SB's in Buffalo and then couldn't beat N.E. in Indy so had the rules changed, decides a 6x Super Bowl winner needs to wait a year to get in the HOF as some sort of penance. Meanwhile, LT, OJ, Jim Brown, Paul Hornung all convicts and in.

Owner of the Titans should be forced to sell just for firing Vrabel. And Cleveland could have promoted him last year. Dopes. We'll take it.

@PhilAPerry Phil, they seem to be playing fair amount of zone. Are you surprised by that?

I'm no expert but why play soft zone today of all days? Lots of room. Easy completions.

100%. CFB has a serious calendar problems. Idiots

@NFLFrascella @nyjetshistory Yes, Belichik and Carroll being out of the league at a combined 150 years old and Shanahan being in the league with zero super bowls definitely proves your point that his way works best.

@nyjetshistory This post is as of today… it has nothing to do with career resumes, it has to do with looking forward… is Bill Belichick still in the league? Pete Carroll? Doug Pederson?

I’ve been preaching this since Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay stormed onto the scene The day of the ‘rah-rah’ head coach in the NFL is DONE If you aren’t a young, sophisticated tactician, you are a dinosaur Mike Tomlin reached the end of the line last night… Pete Carroll is already toast They are faded ghosts of a time gone by There’s a reason why Grant Udinski is now getting head coaching interviews at only THIRTY years old The key to the entire NFL now is having a young, smart, sharp head coach who is willing to evolve every game, every half, every quarter and every play.
