My helper last night as we mounted a TV together ❤️

True story!

Fun story from @CoachDoty on why he and his Houston Christian staff suit up: “I have been a head coach since 2012 and we always wore suits. I liked the professionalism of it and starting as a 28 year old head college basketball coach I felt it was important to look professional on the sideline. After COVID ignited the change in college coaching attire across the industry, we decided we would stand by the tradition of wearing suits for all games. Things changed when my Emporia State team played Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse on November 3, 2021 in front of 16,200 fans. When Bill Self came out about 90 seconds prior to tip, he came over to our bench to welcome us and shake hands. He looked at me funny as I was fully suited and he was in a quarter zip. He smiled and asked, ‘You guys are still wearing those?’ Kansas proceeded to beat our NCAA Division II team 86-60 that evening and I made the decision moving forward that our staff wouldn’t show up as someone’s guest wearing business professional attire while they are casual. As of November 4, 2021 our new dress code was (and still is): *Home Games: Our staff wears suits *Road Games: Our staff produces a scouting report for our opposing coaching staff’s attire.. If they are typically casual then we dress casual (Lulu/chino style pant with a team issued polo, quarter zip, or high-end team branded shirt). If they wear suits, then we wear suits on the road.”

Christian thinks his older brother Calvin is hilarious 😆

🚨 Big man alert 🚨 Everyone’s hunting for size in the portal. We’ve got one who you need to look at. Meet Ahjany Lee (6’9 1/2” on the tape with shoes on). Ahjany just wrapped up two seasons at HCU after beginning his career at the University of St. Thomas (MN) in the Summit League, where he played for one of the best mid-major coaches in the country in Johnny Tauer. Ahjany Lee: • Skilled, mobile big who rebounds, protects the rim, and is a legitimate pick-and-pop threat • Fully recovered from an October 2024 knee injury. Crushed it in the summer and early fall of 2024 and had earned our starting big man spot prior to the injury. Came back in 2025-26 and by the middle part of this season was comfortable, confident, and explosive (see included highlights). • Elite per-minute producer: At St. Thomas as an underclassmen he played 822 minutes across two seasons. He averaged 4.6 PPG, 3.7 RPG, and nearly 1 BPG in just 13.9 MPG (.508 FG / .364 3PT / .802 FT). Play him 28 minutes per game and those numbers are 9.2 PPG, 7.5 RPG, and 2 BPG. • Very intelligent, consistent work ethic, and high character. *Basketball family — Sister is Ayoka Lee who was a star at Kansas State. Coaches: Call me on Ahjany and I’ll let you know everything you need to know. Ahjany can help immediately as a 2nd/3rd big at the D1 level or be a featured piece at an NCAA D2. Hit me up!

H-Town let’s do it. #DawgsUp

We have a second high-level player in the portal who has earned the right to level up. I’ve spent the majority of the last 730 days with Demari Williams. Over his two years at HCU, I’ve watched him develop into exactly the player Arizona State saw when they signed him out of high school. • Slashing wing with a grown-man, Power 5 body • 6’6” (measured with shoes), 220 lbs — not an ounce of fat on him • Dynamic defender who can guard 1-4 • Elite on-ball defender who matched up against our opponent’s #1 scorer each night • Played his best when it mattered most. In 28 Southland Conference games: 10.4 PPG on 90-194 FG (.464), 21-60 from three (.350), and 90-107 FT (.882). • Against Iowa State (12/29/25): 19 PTS (7-13 FG), 5 REB • Good perimeter shooter who can really cut — best 45 and corner cutter I’ve ever coached Off the floor, Demari’s habits are elite. He eats clean, takes great care of his body, works hard in the weight room, and has zero bad habits or vices. Note: Last season we had two double-figure scorers at HCU who entered the portal for revenue opportunities: Julian Mackey (to FIU) and Bryson Dawkins (to YSU). Both were feature players and double-digit scorers at their new schools. Demari is cut from the same cloth and will be great for you. Call or text me with any questions. I’ll give you everything you need to know.

Elijah Brooks played the last two years for us at HCU and is available in the portal. He’s the real deal: • Two-year starter who led our team in scoring (12.3 PPG), finished second in rebounding (4.5 RPG), and led in steals (1.5 SPG) this season. • Switchable defender who can guard 1-4 effectively. • 6’4” PG (6’3” without shoes, 6’4” with shoes. We measure). • American Conference level athlete — plays downhill, explosive vertical athlete with high-level strength and burst. • Extremely high basketball IQ — Elijah initiated our offense from the point, which included seven formations and over 50 sets/variations. • Developed into an elite pick-and-roll player — rarely missed a pocket pass or read. Float game established. • Barkley game (watch the 11/27/24 game vs. NAU for the full Barkley bag including 29 PTS on 13-19 FG). Most teams run a double at him and are forced to play in rotation. • Elite cutter off the ball • Game-changer in transition with his speed and vision • Career 189/381 (.496 FG%) — all at the NCAA Division I level • Broke his hand this season, but it’s fully healed with no restrictions. He’s been working out daily in our gym and is 100% ready to go. There will be no issue with the medical hardship as we have x-rays, documents, and info from doctors, specialists and surgeons. He appeared in 8 game, all in the first semester. Call me with any questions. I’ll tell you everything you need to know. Note: Last season we had two high level players at HCU enter the portal for enhanced revenue opportunities: Julian Mackey (to FIU) and Bryson Dawkins (to YSU). Both were double-figure scorers who absolutely crushed it at their next school. Elijah is cut from the same cloth and will do the same for you. Hit me up!

After a great conversation with @CoachDoty and staff , I’m blessed and excited to announce my commitment to play Division I basketball at Houston Christian University. Ready to get to work. @HCUHoops #Committed #D1

Blessed and thankful for the journey ahead #Dawgsup @HCUHoops @CoachDoty @CoachLavery @SliceAgentRaab

100% COMMITTED #gohuskies

Let’s do it🤘🏻#GODDID #committed @chrishynes3_ @HCUHoops @CoachDoty @CoachLavery

One of the most enjoyable things about coaching is seeing young men improve. These guys have maximized their opportunities at HCU. Some of them have more than tripled their averages and production from their previous Division I.

Happy Easter Husky Nation!
