Today, let’s take a moment to reflect sincerely on our lives before God. As we seek reconciliation and restitution where necessary (see Matthew 5:23-24; Luke 19:8-10), His mercy and forgiveness will restore us to wholeness. -Daily Bread

After the win over Iowa State, a video circulated of Tennessee participating in the Lord’s Prayer. How has Rick Barnes’ beliefs rubbed off on the team? “I know specifically that one of the reasons I came to Tennessee was because of Rick Barnes and his faith” -Nate Ament

This is what competition should be all about 🏀 At the end of a high-stakes game, Character Coach Randy Graham (Winthrop University) and High Point’s Chase Johnston took a moment to pray together after the Big South Championship. Two opponents. One Faith. Reminding us all that the greatest impact in college basketball goes far beyond the scoreboard. @Cjjj_81 @Sports_Spectrum

We had an SEC assistant buy a courtside seat for one of our conference tournament games to “get ahead” of recruiting on of my kids. Thoughts @GoodmanHoops @jeffborzello @TheFieldOf68
Bryan Hodgson has a message for anyone interested in his USF players 👀 "Any of these clowns that think they’re gonna reach out before the season ends and start sending DMs… I will find you. I’m not like the rest of these coaches. We will have a face-to-face conversation... It may work with other people. It doesn’t work with me. I will find you.”

Goodman makes great points and backs it up w facts. Every person is different, yes they are lumped together but the age and energy level of the guy matters, plus if hiring an ex NBA player he has to answer and explain why he won’t be the others, not an easy answer to explain away
The list of former NBA players/coaches that hasn't been able to get it done in college is LONG. Here's some: Penny Hardaway, Memphis Juwan Howard, Michigan Patrick Ewing, Georgetown Chris Mullin, St. John’s Jerry Stackhouse, Vanderbilt Eddie Jordan, Rutgers Mike Woodson, Indiana Avery Johnson, Alabama Mark Price, Charlotte Isiah Thomas, FIU Mike Dunleavy Jr., Tulane Terry Porter, Portland Donyell Marshall, Central Connecticut State Corliss Williamson, Central Arkansas Clemon Johnson, FAMU Michael Curry, FAU Walter McCarty, Evansville Danny Manning, Wake Forest Aaron McKie, Temple Lindsey Hunter, Mississippi Valley State Juan Dixon, Coppin State

Christmas reminds us that hope isn’t just something the world needs — it’s something each of us needs, too. In the middle of the pressures, the expectations, and the moments we wish we’d handled differently, Christmas tells a deeper story: that grace meets us right where we are. Coach, may this season be a reminder that God’s hope is personal. It covers the world’s brokenness and our own — and it invites us to lead, love, and live from a place of humility and gratitude.

Dwyane Wade shares a 2006 story about Pat Riley forcing the team to build real connections and accountability: “He sat us all down in Chicago and started asking questions about each other. None of us could pass the quiz. We didn’t know families, kids, what someone likes in the morning… He knew right away we had no chance to win until we cared enough to know these intimate things. It took the rest of the year to build that, but we did. That’s why we won. We weren’t the best team that year. We were the most together team when it mattered." (via @DwyaneWade /YT)
