Synergys new Player Tracking data is unreal. If a program isn’t taking advantage of this, you’re falling behind faster than you can imagine.
"Flood Opposite" As the video below shows, Coach Underwood talks about the importance of flooding the opposite side on the offensive glass. @SynergySST New Player Tracking backs it up: Illinois ranks No. 1 in the country at recovering its own missed 3s and sends 4 players to the glass more than any other team.

If I got in my car right now and started heading West, I would eventually get to California. However, if I sat down and planned, I would get there faster with less problems and confusion… Heading into the final stretch of the season, plan how you will arrive at your destination.

".. If you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain will grow and which will not, speak then to me.(Banquo in "Macbeth) = We should coach to our player's potential and not coach them as they currently are.

I love this so much
“It slows down when you’re prepared & speeds up when you’re unprepared.” Getting deliberate in how we prepare physically & mentally can increase our consistency.
