What’s up, internet basketball junkie? Coach Clay Kallam and I recorded a conversation on "Program Management." I released it in my Powerhouse Program Building Skool Community but wanted to share to my email list as a bonus. It's a 72 minute conversation on offseason planning, scheduling, recruiting, conditioning, roster construction, and much more. Coach Kallam started his coaching career in 1970s. I'm no mathematician but I'm impressed by a coaching career spanning 50 YEARS!

What’s up, internet basketball junkie? For Christmas, my significant other did something wildly thoughtful (and slightly dangerous): she had all of my college game film transferred from dusty old VHS tapes into digital format. Which means you are now officially on notice - you will be forced to watch grainy clips of me “getting buckets” in baggy shorts with long hair from 20 years ago. Long hair that peaked in college and has been in the transfer portal ever since. But the best part wasn’t...
