Lately, I have been seeing some funny post throughout social media and messages boards from AAU coaches about high school boys and girls basketball programs and High School coaches about AAU coaches. Its quite comical to me and it seems there is some pure jelly and hatin going on. You are comparing apples to oranges and I called it passive aggressive hating on both sides.

 

The usual AAU whining sessions are as follows:

 

1) I taught my AAU kid more than their high school coach did in a whole season, and in one or two practices.

2) My AAU kid came back out of shape when they are with their high school team.

3) High School Coaches dont have the best interest of the kid at heart.

4) College Coaches only see kids in AAU events and in Exposure Events

5) The AAU coach got them the offer not the High School Coach

6) The High school coach only wants plays, we want players

7) The High School Coach Sits in a Zone and We press and play man to man

 

The Usual High School Coaches Whining Sessions are as follows:

1) AAU is nothing more than street ball

2) AAU coaches dont play defense

3) AAU coaches dont practice more than two days a week and act like they are really working a kid hard

4) AAU coaches handpick their players

5) AAU coaches are taking kids money to go on trips

6) AAU coaches make some kids pay and not others

7) AAU coaches dont play zone because they dont have to with a recruited team.

 

I am putting my two cents into this and you can take it for what its worth or telling me to stick it where the sun dont shine, regardless I don't really care. I just want all people that have the "Kids Best Interest at Heart to think of the message that is being sent. You are not doing what is in the kids best interest when you talk bad one way or another.

 

Im going to present FACTS and OPINIONS to each Statement

 

Fact 1

Let me remind you AAU teams are "recruited" teams, once again AAU teams are "recruited" teams, once again AAU teams are "recruited" teams, and one last time AAU teams are "recruited" teams. Now I am not blinded to the fact that several high school teams recruit, but the majority dont.

 

OPINION

It would be nice if that same AAU coach that talks crap would like to take on depth chart players number 6-20 on any teams roster, however most are only looking for each teams "top dogs".

 

If AAU programs want to take bench players from high school teams, and JV players and make some JV varsity AAU teams let me know and I will be happy to pass the word around. Just let me know I get the word throughout the whole commonwealth that your AAU program is going to work with the same personnel the high school teams has too. Since there are miracle workers out there I am sure their will be numerous takers. I'm being dead serious send me your info and I will send emails to every high school program in the state and tell them you have room for their role and JV players in your AAU program.

 

 

FACT 2

High School Coaches may be around their players on the court over 400 days in a 4 year period and even more if they are teachers (700 plus).

 

OPINION Nobody gives a crap who feels entitled that they helped a kid earn a scholarship, so why not try get both the AAU and High School coach together at their signing, if they are fortunate enough to get a scholarship (no matter what level).

 

FACT

 

AAU teams will have more college coaches and scouts watching than high school games.

College Coaches want to see the best players play against the best players and usually that is what happens when a recruited AAU team forms. This also only makes sense , because the college teams and scouts have their season going on simultaneously during the high school season.

 

 

Regardless,

 

Sack up and quit acting like whiny school kids!!!!!

There are great guys and scumbags in both. There are great coaches and guys who couldn't coach pee wee basketball in both.
