Episodes
  • Ep 144 Are Your X’s and O’s Making Players Better or Just Keeping Coaches Busy?
    May 14 2026
    https://teachhoops.com/ Are your X’s and O’s actually helping your players, or are they just making the game more complicated? In this episode, Coach Collins talks about one of the biggest mistakes coaches make in the offseason: adding more instead of teaching better. This episode is about the difference between having a system and overwhelming your team with too much. Coach Collins breaks down why good X’s and O’s should fit your personnel, be teachable, and build confidence. He also digs into why execution, clarity, and repetition usually matter more than having a huge playbook. For coaches heading into the offseason and thinking about what to install, this is a reminder that the goal is not to impress other coaches on the whiteboard. The goal is to help players play free, play fast, and play well when the pressure hits. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Ep 143 Are You Building a Team That Can Handle Hard Conversations?
    May 7 2026
    https://teachhoops.com/ Are you building a team that can actually handle hard conversations? In this episode, Coach Collins talks about one of the biggest leadership jobs of early May: bringing clarity to players and the program before summer begins. This is the time of year when coaches can either plant truth or plant confusion. Honest conversations about habits, body language, toughness, commitment, leadership, and trust can shape an entire offseason. Avoiding those conversations might feel easier in the moment, but it often creates bigger problems once the season starts again. Coach Collins breaks down why great leaders do not use honesty to tear players down, but to call them up. He talks about how correction, belief, listening, and clarity all work together to build buy-in and move a program forward. This episode is a reminder that great teams are not built on skill alone. They are built on truth, trust, and standards. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Ep 142 Who Is Leading Your Program When Coaches Aren’t in the Room?
    Apr 30 2026
    https://teachhoops.com/ Who is really leading your program when the coaches are not in the room? In this episode, Coach Collins talks about one of the biggest leadership questions of the offseason and why the end of April is the perfect time for coaches to examine it. This is the stretch of the year when the season is over, the emotion has settled, and attention starts to shift toward summer. That makes it one of the most important times to evaluate whether your culture is truly strong or whether it only works when adults are watching. Coach Collins breaks down why real leadership shows up in open gyms, group chats, workouts, locker rooms, and all the moments that never make the stat sheet. He also digs into the difference between loud players and true leaders, why leadership has to be taught on purpose, and how coaches can create real ownership instead of fake ownership. This episode is about building a program where standards are carried by players, not just enforced by coaches. For coaches planning their offseason, this is a strong reminder that summer leadership does not happen by accident. It has to be identified, taught, and grown now. If you want a program that is deeper, stronger, and more player-driven next season, this episode will help point you in the right direction. Learn more about your ad choices.
