Total #ATTACK trainee 2028 @jillianfirich25 (Central Valley HS) is a great story💯 Would have quit basketball if she hadn’t joined our program in 7th grade🏀 Last year as a sophomore she contributed on Varsity, including a game with a career best 12 points🔥 This year she’s competing for a starter’s role😤 Not something 7th grade Jill would have even thought about🤯 Hard work and the right attitude, in the right environment, pays off. I say it all the time…make sure wherever you train that you’re getting results. Busy work, doesn’t mean quality work🤔 #ATTACK

Total #ATTACK trainees Vivienne (2028) and Jules (2029) Goshen of OLSH HS were in this week for training🏀 Part of a potential State title XC team, they make the time to get their 🏀 work in too😤 They have such high expectations on themselves and were SO mad it took them a long time to make 10 FTs in a row to end training😡 Notice they combined for 76% and were mad🤷🏼‍♂️😂 BIG things coming for these 2 this year💯 #ATTACK

These Total #ATTACK Trainees happened to all cross paths this week at their trainings🏀 Thinking you’re looking at 30 wins minimum (2 teams), maybe 40, and a shot at a combined 1K points🔥 2028’s @ashtyn2212 and @brookecerto (Lincoln Park HS) and 2028 Vivienne and 2029 Jules Goshen (OLSH) are ready for BIG years😤 College coaches take note✍️ #ATTACK #GetBuckets #StrickHoopsFam

This is a 3-point shooting drill I call “Drift, Lift, and Fill”. I like players to slide to windows so they are always shot ready. So they’ll drift to corner, lift from corner, and fill to the top in this drill. Make it your own. Pick the spots in your offense. I do 5 makes at each (30 total) because it fits our 1 hour training sessions. But again, make it your own and do the amount of makes you want. 2028 @DrewH_01 is doing the drill here. He’s in his 2nd year of Total #ATTACK training with us, and will be a 1st time varsity starter. In his fall league game this week he went 5-7 from 3, including the game winning 3 on a play his coach drew up for him🔥 That’s training translating to games🎯 #ATTACK

Officially public news and I am SO happy you’ve found the right fit for YOU @Emily_berger5!! Great person going to a great program #WeAre Will definitely be following along over the next 4 years!! #ATTACK #GetBuckets #StrickHoopsFam

Josh Allen reveals he had zero scholarship offers coming out of high school so he sent 1,000 emails with his highlights attached to every coach in the country, only two responded “The email said something like, Hey, I’m Josh Allen. I’m 6’5”, 220 pounds. I feel like I’d be a great fit for your program. Here’s my Hudl. These are my stats… I literally just went copy, paste, copy, paste and sent it to every single coach I could find an email for.” “I played in a small town called Firebaugh, California. I had zero offers out of high school. I had no preferred walk-ons. A couple Division III schools were trying to give me academic scholarships so I could go play there, but I didn’t want to make my parents pay for me to go somewhere.” “So I went the junior college route. I felt like I was good enough to play, which is obviously why I kept going. I wanted to go to junior college, earn a scholarship and kind of pay my family back for everything they had done for me.” “I also played football, basketball and baseball. I was a three-sport guy, so I didn’t spend my summers going around to every quarterback camp. I got the chance to play different sports, feel different emotions, meet different types of people and learn how to deal with all of it.” “I think that’s something a lot of kids need to continue doing, play more sports. Every sport teaches you something that you can ultimately use later in life.”

Max Strus says making the NBA required him to accept he doesn’t have a bag anymore and that shooting got him on the floor but defense would keep him out there “I don’t have a bag. I used to have a bag back in college, but I don’t anymore because you find what your niche is and you just go at it.” “I knew shooting the basketball was going to get me on the floor, and then I knew playing defense was going to keep me on the floor. I’ll guard the best player. I don’t care. They’re going to score on me because everybody’s that good. You can’t really stop anybody anyway.” “So it’s like, how can I make it as tough as possible on them? I don’t need to shoot the ball. I’m all right. I can do other things that I know are helping the team win. How can I make Donovan Mitchell better? How can I make James Harden better? How can I make Jarrett Allen better?” “If I feel like I haven’t gotten a shot, it’s like, all right, go crash the offensive rebound and get it. I’m not going to sit here and cry to myself about not shooting the ball or not being involved. Make yourself useful.” “My first couple years [in Miami], I don’t think I dribbled the ball once. Come off a handoff and shoot, come off a screen and shoot, and then defend and rebound. That’s all I did.” “As you continue to build more confidence within the team, within the coach, they put you in positions where, all right, now I can do a little bit more.” “You’ve got to have the humbleness to humble yourself to, ‘I’m not that guy anymore. I can’t be that guy anymore.’ But then be ready for the opportunity when it does come, ‘No, I could still be that guy. That’s just not what we need right now. But when we do, I got you.’”

People tell me players playing in the post doesn’t happen anymore🤷🏼‍♂️ Idk, crazy idea, but what if you actually teach/coach post moves? 2028 @rowanwinter43 has been training with us for 4 years🏀 Idk, seems like you can teach/coach post moves and players will do it😉
