I partially agree with this perspective. Yes, let them play, but it's important to analyze their performance afterward. The key question is: what’s the goal? Are we playing just for fun, or are we aiming for college or professional levels? If the goal is college or pro, then discussing their play becomes essential. They need to be prepared for the scrutiny they’ll face from coaches, who will provide direct feedback. I also share concerns about the overly dogmatic approach many parents take, which often involves yelling and criticizing their child’s performance. Instead of that, it’s crucial to foster constructive communication. For instance, ask questions like, “What were you thinking when you took that shot?” or “Why were you positioned in the corner?” Encouraging thoughtful dialogue is key! We are NOT here to BABY these kids. The beauty of SPORTS is its a DIRECT reflection of LIFE! Lets attack it as such!

Youth sports and the parents it attracts are garbage

facts it is the dads

My son is 16months, hes already doing pull ups, latters, pushup, and treadmill.

Recording part of a game is very important so that they can actually see for themselves

I appreciate your guidance. It's helped a lot in my improvement as a basketball dad and as a dad period.

coach Its me Ali i know im not on the team but thats EXAXTLY what my dad keep saying about this team

BEST Coachhhhh🎉🎉🎉

I was at this game. I remember Lincoln was in the stands celebrating my cousin went to Kimball at the time I was at Atwell. That was the craziest sports event I had ever witnessed.

Good vid coach

Love your videos. Well thought out.

Appreciate making the vid coach. It was helpful. I was laughing when you were mentioning that someone may have a talent in typing. Ali

Hey coach great channel , have a son now who’s 8 we live in the DMV super competitive basketball environment. Everything you saying are facts starting the spring season many parents pulling they kids over playing time.

Coach Tex is a wonderful coach. He has a great rapport with his players. He has an amazing work ethics. His team has a strong bond and they play as a TEAM! He pushes the kids to improve their game and pays attention to the players weaknesses & strengths. Based on his observations, he works with the payers individually. He offers private lessons to help players meet their goals. He also has a summer camp. He only takes limited amount of players in his camp to be able teach and develop b-ball skills.

Wow! I remember being there. The energy was intense the last few minutes of the game. Crazy ending

Very Good information 👌🏾

That 2002 class was lit for DFW. D-Will, Bosh, Horton, B-Hop, and Wright.

Yo this is Ali coach Tex the goated coach

Yo

Hi I’m a new kid on your fifth grade select very excited😅😊😊

Thanks for breakdown. I started watching your videos. Real informational. Thank you.

How much basketball training is too much? Should they take months off throughout the year? I have a 10 year old son who started to take basketball serious in March 2023

Lot of parents need to watch this! I see so little of parents interested in development if the team isn't winning every game/tournament

Thanks for the breakdown

Hi coach Cooper

Good word, Coach! I always made the team because of my height, but I wish I had you as a coach when I was my son's age. I never learned to handle the ball and shoot except in the paint.

Do you got the 2003 Dunbar vs Beaumont ozen championship game

Class of 02 Dunbar Alum. This was my senior year. We should’ve had a rematch against Lincoln for the state championship but lost to Kendrick Perkins and Beaumont Ozen by 2 in the semi final. This squad was stacked tho

Awesome 👍 great video

I was on that Ellison Team. I started on that Team. I have known Zach since we was kids. Had alot of Battles him doing from Austin n I was From Killeen. AAU! Thank you for putting this up just seeing this. My kids and my niece n nephew all play Basketball n I want to show them that this. Once again thank you brotha!!!

Uh oh uh oh 🙌🏾 💪🏾💪🏾 Dunbar alum

They should’ve won state in 02 but they came back in 03 won State

Great info

that number 3# aint no joke

Good information. A lot of the things I didn't know.

We had just beaten a gigantic Mt.Zion team. Kimball had more than we thought. No weak spots. They could all hoop. #34 didn’t kill us in the stat sheet, but made all the right plays. Some of those calls tho 🥴 Score was 20-11, fouls at 9-4.

Hi Tex Julie’s gk

Did London play his senior year?

What happened to chris jackson from dunbar?

When the legend Coach Robert Hughes steps on your court,you better beware of the High Flying Wildcats!! #Stop6ix

I saw this colony team play 1 time and it was evident that deron should have gotten the accolades bracy got. He was just better

I remember this team I don’t remember the game but I remember that fw Dunbar team
