do you coach any of your school players on this aau team?

1. I didn't start this convo about aau coaches vs school coaches.  2. I never knocked aau coaches.   I said I see both sides.   so u r going to tell me you take anybody and everybody on an AAU team?  so aau is the same as lil dribbler now?????   There is great coaches both aau and school, but don't come on here and act like you don't have an advantage over school coaches because you can pick and choose from larger mile radius to make your team.

I was referring to your post about school coaches coaching aau....I believe it to be against UIL rules.   come on DOVE.....really   I wouldn't be asking so many questions about him if I was his handler......

When does TEXAS release its dates?

uil rules

I ended up getting it......that's some bad stuff......dang listeria.

and why is that????

I know Rodney plays AAU, but who for???

yes I have a few ties there.  I have many ties.....Nederland, Lumberton, Central, Ozen, LCM, WB, King Middle School, Austin Middle School, Marshall Middle School, Warren, Kountze, EC, HJ, HF, Barbers Hill, La Porte, Lamar, New Orleans,  Metro athletic conference,  I could keep going......

can we get back on topic

Great post ST413

I know there are some great aau coaches who do it for the right reasons.  But don't knock junior high and high school coaches.   school coaches are teaching and coaching the kids that AAU coaches are not cause AAU coaches are only gonna take the kids that are gonna help them win or fit their team philosophy.. am I wrong about that? IM sure there is some kids on teams that more than likely were below cut but coaches let them on cause momma and daddy have good jobs and are willing to pay whatever so there kid can get some exposure.    AAU has a larger pool to pull from.  EX...Local AAU has all of golden triangle and the out skirts while a school coach is only dealt the hand that live within district boundaries.

is he still cocking his head to the side on his jump shots???

sorry .....we need to get back on topic here

Just to throw this in many high school basketball coaches make pennies for the time they put in.  They get paid to teach which isn't that much along with small stipend to coach.    And coaching isn't just about the sport or athletic scholarships, but teaching young men and women about life.  Hard work, dedication, fortitude, etc etc etc.   I know some great junior high and high school coaches who have influenced young men morally and they didn't win a state championship. 

that's why I asked "is it out of context?"

if West Brook can keep the kids they have now then in 2017 will be pretty good.  Aaron Brown out works most.

oh believe me there's thugs in Silsbee....white and black

bullet to the head.....simple and cheap

We could really stop a lot of issues in this country if we just had stricter entry laws.  And when I mean strict I mean high level.  and those that break them receive cruel and unusual punishment.  something the left knows nothing about.    

hard to do when they all call themselves muslim.......which follow the quran.   Again are we taking it out of context???????????????????????

some people are just push overs with no spine intact and expect others to follow suit.   try standing firm for something rather than be a push over.   I don't care muslim, jew, hindu, etc etc etc.  If you go against the Word of God then yes I will stand firm.    If you carry out crimes. I will stand firm against you.  If you commit evilness then I will stand firm against you. Weak minded individuals with no spine is a problem.

I can see both sides, aau has grown a lot since it first started.  lil more watered down now.  Still great talent, but watered down some with players and coaches.

Are we taking it out of context? 

How smart are we???  We re not learning from our past and that goes for a lot of things not just this Cuba thing.   Slowly deteriorating.......       Im so glad I live in the middle of the woods....
