LISTEN: Both TCU and Wyoming have JUCO talent on the roster and coaching staff. Jamie Dixon and Sundance Wicks mention bringing their teams back to the junior college experience. @TCUBasketball | @wyo_mbb | @CoachDixon | @CoachSundance | @Midland_College | @NewsWest9Sports

The average midrange shot in college is worth a 28% three. Long twos (15+ ft) sit at 26%, draw the fewest shooting fouls of any two (4%), and have the lowest OREB% of any shot (25%). There's a time and place, but relying on the midrange is minus-EV long term 👇
UNC coach Michael Malone: "We do not want to be a mid-range shooting team. Worst shot in basketball... We want to live at rim, the free-throw line, and get up a lot of threes."

Dan Hurley on UConn’s “Secret Sauce” “From a team standpoint, the secret sauce for us is how hard we practice and how intense the environment is. We try to make our practice sessions chaotic. There are no fouls called. There are no water breaks. It is the most intense, the fastest-paced, and the most stressful thing our players will go through. So when they show up on game night, that’s the secret sauce. On game night, it is a little bit slower and a little bit more comfortable.” 🎥 How Leaders Lead

We've reached the worst-case scenario with the 2022 players: A world where lots of players will be eligible through state-level injunctions, but no national consensus and eligibility for different players being dictated by different states on different schedules. What a mess.
Big news. Class of 2022 athletes who exhausted four years of eligibility this past spring are now ineligible unless they are part of their own lawsuit/injunction. Not much in terms of rationale, but, notably, one of the three judges on the panel would have denied the stay.

Dan Hurley: "We've had the second most amount of players drafted in the last 4,5 years, but we also have National Championships to show for it and Finals appearances to show for it. We don't hang our hats on just getting our guys to the NBA or just getting to championship games. We're able to do both..."

“Why are there no bigs or point guards in the portal?” Because teams looked to the portal for entire rosters the last couple years and now there are no high school players that are being developed Better start getting REAL familiar with JUCO, International and developing HS

The amount of lies being told to college athletes right now by coaches that have absolutely NO CLUE is staggering. Players, piece of advice, if a coach promises you something, get it in writing and signed, at this point may even notarized with the amount of money at stake. Most coaches won’t even be at the school you’re going to have to go to court with to get what was promised to you!
OK IM ONLY GOING TO SAY THIS ONE MORE TIME Yes, your JUCO years still count against you. That was only a blanket for one class of kids. The NCAA has resisted any efforts by the NJCAA to discuss this any further. STOP TELLING PLAYERS THEY DONT COUNT!!!!!

Positionless basketball has confused some young players into thinking roles don’t matter.Roles still matter.A guard should value decision-making.A wing should impact both ends.A big should screen,rebound,protect space,and punish mismatches.Versatility don’t erase responsibility.
