🚨 Lunch today w/ South Mountain College head🏀coach Dan Nichols. I'm also excited to announce I will be hosting my first of many Area Codes Basketball JUCO 🏀 Jamboree on Sunday October 6, 2024 at South Mountain College (Phoenix, AZ). I've been working on this for 7 months 🙏🏾
I have been fighting the fight in bed & I need to let everyone know I have tested positive for Coronavirus. I don't wish this pain on anyone, I have 6 symptoms 🙏🏽 This is no joke if it wasn't for my hiking/cardio the doctor said I wouldn't be here. Take care of you 😷
I talked to a Nationally Ranked NAIA school and he's called over 20 unsigned players and haven't got a returned call yet. With the portal still with hundreds of players, where do y'all really think you will land? Only a few scholarships still left across the entire board.
BREAKING NEWS 🎤 ARIZONA has Zero restrictions & is back to normal. Restaurants, health clubs. online education, youth/adult sports, barber shops, salons, nightclubs, stripclubs, pro sports & competitive youth/adult basketball which includes practice, leagues & tournaments 👊🏽
NOTE 🏀 players especially on the high school & college level. BODY LANGUAGE goes a long way as a scout that's one of the first things I notice, it can be a killer for your recruiting or earning playing time. Bad Character is a turn off on all levels🕵
I want to thank everyone for the prayers 🙏🏽 and support during my Covid19 recovery. It worked as I'm feeling better but not cleared yet of the virus, hopefully in the next week to 10 days.
Thank you everyone for your prayers, calls & text messages. I'm blessed to be alive after being in a head on collision by a wrong way drunk driver in Phoenix last weekend. PLEASE DON'T DRINK & DRIVE! 🙏🏽
Happy 52 Birthday to me. A friend asked what I want. More laughter, more fun more love, more peace & more love in this world 🌍 I know I won't live another 51.. Don't let me down
#April25th
It's been almost 4 months since I went hiking, since I was diagnosed w/ Coronavirus. It has been a challenge & I had to get over the fear 🙏🏽 I would wake-up saying I can't hike, today I woke up & my mind told me to hit the mountain & take your time. 4 miles later 👊🏽
I ask everyone to please say a prayer for UTEP head coach Rodney Terry. A friend of all of ours in the 🏀 basketball world 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 one of the best individuals you will ever meet.
Not everyone 6'9 or 7 feet is a division I player, some evaluators fall in love with the first date.... Do your homework 🤦🏽♂️ college coaches can lose there job over bad recruiting.
Blessed to be 53 it's my MF BIRTHDAY 🍾 I want to thank everyone for your friendship through the year's. I realize life won't take me another 53 but I'll enjoy life to the fullest each and every day on earth. Life owes me nothing.
Let's all welcome the new

Some don't realize about the first wave of the Coronavirus, but the 2nd wave will hit us hard and fuck us up personally. Take this matter serious and don't rush the come back it ain't about us, it's a 🌎 epidemic. I almost died because of this 🙏🏾
Today was one of the roughest days I've had in year's. My dog Icey passed away peacefully. She just turned 15 year's old July 1🙏🏽 Please say a prayer as she is in a better place, doggy heaven 💔 Icey was half human at times & apart of my family.

Why are there so many NON-BASKETBALL 💻people in the game. Many never touched, nor can they shoot, dribble a ball, teach a drill or demonstrate a play 😨 I say this on every level not because it's the NBA DRAFT day. 👀

Nothing worse than a college coach having to call you because a high School coach doesn't put up any stats on MaxPreps or any team updates. Parents/players do yourselves a favor & talk to your head coach about filling out the information for
@MaxPreps
it's about recruiting
It's unbelievable how a few high school coaches hate on there own players, that can help them WIN games. Especially when they produce in the classroom 🤔 good thing most college coaches read through the bull shit
