Remember, you can be at different levels for different areas of your program (e.g., Stage 5 in culture, but Stage 1 in X's & O's).Practice the Power of "No": To move toward the "Simplify" stage, look at your current drills or plays. If they don't fall into your core principles, have the courage to remove them.Train for Messiness: If your team freezes without complete instructions, start giving limited information and letting them "figure it out" to build adversity-tested "Jungle Tigers".Seek a Mentor: If you are in the Searching stage, find a coach or a system (like Savvy Basketball) to help you define your path.

In this episode of The Hours, host Mark Cascio sits down with longtime friend and high school coach Travis Uzee (St. Amant High School, Louisiana) to discuss the evolution of his program. Coach Uzee shares his "coaching superpower"—accountability—and how it serves as the bridge to success on both ends of the floor.The conversation dives deep into Uzee’s transition from traditional set plays to SAVI’s conceptual offense and the Lock Left defensive system. Discover how shifting focus from "developing plays" to "developing players" has dramatically increased his team’s skill level and shooting confidence. Whether you are a veteran coach or just starting your conceptual journey, this episode is packed with "in-the-trenches" advice on practice planning, defensive rotations, and building a culture of toughness.🕒 Key Points & Timestamps[0:00] Introduction: Coaching superpowers and the value of in-game feel.[9:15] Shifting to Conceptual Offense: Why Coach Uzee moved away from the Flex and Brad Underwood systems.[12:30] Developing Players vs. Plays: How conceptual basketball has "dramatically" improved team skill and shooting.[16:45] Practice Planning Secrets: Using a "game sandwich" and leaving 15 minutes of space for what the team needs most.[22:10] The Lock Left Journey: Successes and struggles in Year 1 of the Lock Left defense.[25:30] Matching Up in Transition: Advice for coaches implementing Lock Left for the first time.[29:45] Going "Full Psycho": Using disruptive inbound defense to create easy turnovers.📝 Action Items for CoachesLeave Space in Practice Plans: Intentionally leave 15–20 minutes of unplanned space in your schedule. Use this time to address immediate needs (e.g., rebounding or shooting) or end early to leave players with "juice" for the next day.Focus on Accountability: Use campus and program accountability as a direct bridge to on-court discipline.Teach "Matching Up" First: When installing Lock Left, ensure your back-end defenders (Nail and Goalie) understand they must match up with specific threats before finding their zone spots.Implement "Psycho" Inbounds: Increase defensive disruption by having the defender on the inbounder prioritize deflections and physical pressure to force turnovers.

Instead of our usual format, Mark Cascio and Tyler Coston invite you to sit in on a live consulting call with a few members of the SAVI Basketball community.We dive into the real, in-the-moment problems coaches face, dissecting film and providing actionable solutions for a team struggling with isolation offense and needing a clear system for transition defense. This episode focuses on the key concepts of Spacing before Advantage, Advantage before Shot and using "training wheels" to build a conceptual, free-flowing offense. If you're heading into the season and want to transform your offense from random hero-ball to a stacked-action system, this is a must-listen.

Join Mark and Tyler for a special Mailbag episode of The Hours podcast! Celebrating over 600 members in the Savvy Basketball community, they tackle listener-submitted "smart questions" that show effort and application. This episode dives deep into coaching philosophy, from youth development to high-level defensive strategy, emphasizing principles over prescribed plays and function over form.Get ready for an in-depth discussion on how to teach modern basketball, why reacting to your opponent means you've already lost, and how to improve shooting effectively mid-season.💡 Key Points & TimestampsYouth Coaching: Spacing with Non-Shooters (4:12)Crucial Principle: Spacing is for passing, not for shooting at that level.Third graders can shoot from distance, but they need to be taught a system that generates power and functionality over traditional form shooting.Head Coach Problem: Utilizing Capable Assistants (14:38)Recommendation: Ask the assistants to write their own job descriptions and identify their "areas of genius".Example roles: Scouts, running practice sections, shooting coordinator, game subs, driving competitiveness, extra work/gym-opening.Disruptive Defense: Guarding Stagger Screens in Lock Left (19:03)A coach asks how to guard stagger screens in the "Lock Left" defense.The Goal: Disrupt timing by making the ball "go to jail" (forcing the ball handler to the left side/sideline).The 5-Step Savvy Coach Checklist:Why do you care? Focus on what you can do, not what they do.Check the math. Is this action truly hurting you, or did one play just feel bad? (Look at percentage of possessions and points per possession) .Rewind the tape. What happened before the stagger screen that allowed them to run it? (The on-ball defender didn't make the ball go) .Create your problems (e.g., getting better on the wall, rebounding) rather than fixing theirs (stagger screens).Shooting: Function Over Form (44:20)Observation/Fix: Players often have feet that are too narrow and a ball load position (Position 1) that is too high (chin-level), limiting their ability to transfer force from the ground.🎯 Action Items for CoachesRedefine Winning: If you coach youth, evaluate your practice plans. Are you coaching for long-term development or short-term wins? Use the Big/Small/Big perspective.Assign Autonomy to Assistants: Ask your assistant coaches to write their own job descriptions detailing their roles and areas of expertise to give them ownership.Stop Reacting to Opponents: Apply the 5-step checklist. Before defending an opponent's specific action (like staggers), check the math to see if it's a real threat and rewind the tape to see what your team did (or failed to do) to allow the action to happen.Teach Functional Shooting: Do not start with form shooting close to the rim. Adjust foot width and ball position to generate maximum power first. Do not move in if a player can't reach—force the functional adjustment by shooting from the desired range (or even further back).

Learn how to be "messy" with high standards and why the preparation and debrief are the most important parts of your coaching week. #SAVIcoach SAVI Basketball 7-Day Free Trial: https://www.skool.com/savi-coach/about🛠️ Action Items for CoachesEvaluate Your Clinics: Next time you attend a clinic, evaluate if it offers extended mentorship/follow-up, allows for interactive engagement, and has a connected, focused curriculum.Hold High Standards for Response: Implement a clear, predetermined consequence (like a technical foul) for poor mistake responses (frustration, eye-rolling) to enforce the "next play" standard in your gym.Apply the Plus-One Debrief: During practice, observe many mistakes but only coach one or two things in the post-activity debrief. Resist the urge to give concurrent feedback or address everything at once.Prioritize Prep and Debrief: Cut practice short by 15 minutes if needed to establish a process where you spend time preparing objectives and debriefing with your staff after every session.Identify 3 Objectives: For your next practice, identify 3 clear, measurable objectives (e.g., "get open in space," "rebounding," "hunting nines") based on your game data, and let your staff (or use the Savvy community) suggest drills to achieve them (631, 636).Simplify and Clarify: Check if your players can articulate your offensive objective in a clear, concise phrase. Also, ensure your players can trigger an action/play with speed and on their own; otherwise, it's a useless play.

We dive into the most effective ways young players can spend their time for maximum personal growth. Leblanc argues that time is a player’s greatest asset, and often, that time is better spent on deliberate individual skill work (like shooting & ball handling), free-play/pick-up games, & expanding basketball knowledge through film, books, and podcasts, rather than the extensive travel and downtime associated with many tournaments.This episode is a masterclass in separating high-impact activities from low-impact participation.

Drawing on their experiences as teachers and coaches, they discuss how to build a program that is truly bigger than any one person. They cover practical strategies like asking better questions, creating a psychologically safe environment, and co-creating your team's culture.

Instead, ask an open-ended question to get them to think about the problem themselves.Use "powerful pauses": After you ask a question, wait longer than you think you should for a response. Give your players time to process and formulate their own answers.Conduct a "thumbs up/thumbs down" check with eyes closed: To get an honest assessment of your team's understanding of a concept, have them close their eyes before giving a thumbs up or down. This removes the influence of peer pressure.Create a space for small groups: Find a way to have your players talk in small groups of 3 or 4 during practice or film sessions. This creates a safe environment for them to share their thoughts and ideas.Note to the EditorJoin the TOC Coach community: https://www.skool.com/toccoach/aboutSAVI Basketball website: https://savicoach.com/homeSAVI Basketball community: https://www.skool.com/savi-coach/aboutNew RDS course: https://savicoach.com/savi-store/product/681b57b47e0d984134dad0faLockLeft course: https://savicoach.com/savi-store/product/681b579168829870711ebc61

In this episode of The Hours Podcast, Mark and Tyler of SAVI Basketball dive into Part 2 of their series on special situations in coaching. They challenge coaches to not only have a pre-determined philosophy for these critical moments but also to actively "test and teach" it to their teams. This episode moves beyond late-game scenarios to cover situations that happen every single game, including pre-game, halftime, and post-game management. They use real-world examples to illustrate how small, well-prepared adjustments can make the difference between a win and a loss, emphasizing the importance of staying true to your team's core principles.Key Points(0:23) Test and Teach Your Philosophy(7:02) Pre-Game Special Situations(12:16) Halftime Management(14:45) Post-Game Routine(17:47) Why Teams Lose Big Leads(20:50) How to Play When You're Down(23:40) When to Call a Timeout(26:51) In-Game SubstitutionsAction Items for Coaches💥Document Your Philosophy: Create a clear, written philosophy for common special situations, including pre-game, halftime, and late-game scenarios.💥Practice with Purpose: Don't just walk through plays.

Are you leaving opportunities on the court? Most coaches are great at preparing for "first-order" situations like transition and half-court offense, but fail to properly train for "second-order" situations that happen frequently but are rarely practiced. In this episode, Tyler and Mark dive deep into two major special situations: free throws and baseline out-of-bounds plays. They challenge traditional coaching methods and provide a fresh perspective on how to turn these moments into a competitive advantage. From developing a proper free-throw routine to intentional fouling, this episode is packed with tips and strategies that will make your team more prepared and more dangerous in every moment of the game.SAVI Basketball Membership: [Link to SAVI Basketball Membership]The Lock Left Course: [Link to Lock Left Course]TOC Coach Membership: [Link to TOC Coach]SAVI Basketball Newsletter: [Link to SAVI Newsletter]
