Ep 1995 Is Your Practice Setup Costing You Twenty Minutes Every Day?
https://teachhoops.com/
Today's episode of the 5 Minute Basketball Coaching Podcast comes to you from teachhoops.com, the coaching platform built to hand you the plan instead of making you invent one every night. Coach opens with a topic that sounds boring and quietly decides your season: how you set up practice before players ever touch the floor. Baskets, balls, cones, groups, who is where, and

Ep 1994 Do Your Players Actually Know What a Good Shot Is?
https://teachhoops.com/
This episode is presented by teachhoops.com, where coaches get the systems and drills that turn ideas into habits. Shot selection is one of those things coaches complain about constantly and teach almost never. We yell "bad shot" after it goes up, then move on without ever defining what a good shot actually is. Coach makes the case that shot selection is a teachable skill,

Ep 1993 Practice Time, Practice Length, and Getting More From Both
https://teachhoops.com/
Brought to you by teachhoops.com, a platform built by a coach for coaches who want their limited gym time to count. Practice time is the one resource every coach wishes they had more of, and the one most coaches quietly waste. This episode takes an honest look at how long practice should be at different levels, how to break that time into pieces, and what to cut when the c

Ep 1992 How Do You Teach So It Actually Sticks?
https://teachhoops.com/
This episode of the 5 Minute Basketball Coaching Podcast is supported by teachhoops.com, where the whole idea is teaching coaches how to teach. Most coaching content tells you what to run. This one is about how you deliver it. Two coaches can install the exact same offense and get completely different results, and the difference is almost always the teaching method.
Coach

Ep 1991 Why Do So Few Teams Screen Well, and How Do You Fix It?
https://teachhoops.com/
This one is brought to you by teachhoops.com, where coaches find the teaching progressions that make hard skills coachable. Screening is one of the most valuable and least taught skills in basketball. Every team runs ball screens. Very few teams set good ones. Coach calls it an art because good screening is equal parts technique, timing, and willingness, and all three have

Ep 1990. Are You Talking Too Much to Be Heard?
https://teachhoops.com/
If the play breaks down and five heads turn to the bench, that is not a basketball problem. That is a coaching habit. This episode is about moving from the sage on the stage to the guide on the side, and building players who can think when the gym gets loud.
What we cover:
Handing players real decisions, and why ownership is a muscle that has to be loaded
Trading

Ep 1989 What Would Make Your Practice Better Tomorrow?
https://teachhoops.com/
Brought to you by teachhoops.com, the platform that hands coaches a better practice instead of a longer to do list. This episode is about improving practice without changing your schedule, your roster, or your facility. Most coaches assume a better practice requires more of something. Coach makes the case that it usually requires better use of what you already have.
The f

Ep 1988 Are You Using Your Timeouts or Just Spending Them?
https://teachhoops.com/
This episode is presented by teachhoops.com, where coaches sharpen the game management skills that decide close games. Timeouts are one of the few in game resources a coach fully controls, and they get burned constantly on frustration rather than strategy. Coach breaks down when a timeout is genuinely the right call, when it is a waste, and how to make the sixty seconds co

Ep 1987 Is Your Practice Too Complicated to Work?
https://teachhoops.com/
Supported by teachhoops.com, a resource built on the idea that clarity beats complexity. This short episode is a reminder most coaches need at least once a season. Complexity feels like coaching. Multiple offenses, several defenses, dozens of drills, and a new wrinkle every week all look like hard work. What they usually produce is a team that does many things poorly and n

Ep 1986 What Are You Measuring If It Is Not the Scoreboard?
https://teachhoops.com/
Summer is over, the banners are hung, and this episode asks an uncomfortable question: did you win because you taught something, or because you found something? One of those lasts. One of those disappears the moment everybody else grows.
What we cover:
The bamboo mindset and why root systems never show up on a December scoreboard
Choosing success metrics before th

Ep 1985 What Does Winning Actually Look Like for Your Team This Season?
What Does Winning Actually Look Like for Your Team This Season?
Why defining success before the first tip changes how your whole season feels
If you don't define winning, the scoreboard will define it for you, and the scoreboard is a brutal boss. In this episode Coach Collins pushes coaches to decide what a successful season means before the first practice, so the team has something to compete f

Ep 1984 Can Every Player on Your Team Repeat Your Vision Back to You?
https://teachhoops.com/
Can Every Player on Your Team Repeat Your Vision Back to You?
How to make your message simple enough that it actually sticks
A vision your players can't repeat is just a speech you gave in October. This episode is about boiling your message down and then saying it far more often than feels comfortable, until it becomes the language of your program.
What we cover
Shr

Ep 1983 Are These Three Mistakes Quietly Wasting Your Practice Time?
https://teachhoops.com/
Are These Three Mistakes Quietly Wasting Your Practice Time?
The common habits that eat reps, energy, and player attention
Most wasted practice time comes from a handful of repeatable errors, and almost every coach makes at least one of them. Coach Collins names the three biggest offenders and gives a fix for each.
Mistake 1: Talking too much
Long explanations kill reps

Ep 1982 Is Your Practice Competitive Enough to Prepare Players for Game Pressure?
https://teachhoops.com/
Is Your Practice Competitive Enough to Prepare Players for Game Pressure?
Building daily competition so game situations feel familiar instead of new
Players don't rise to the occasion in games. They fall back to the level of competition they practiced at. This episode covers how to build real competition into nearly everything you do in the gym.
What we cover
Puttin

Ep 1981 Does Your Practice Have Games In It, Or Just Drills?
https://teachhoops.com/
Your practice looks beautiful. Everybody is moving, nobody is standing around, the whistle is on time, and the assistant with the clipboard is happy. And then the game starts and your team cannot make a read to save its life. That gap between a clean practice and a confused team is what this episode is about.
Coach Collins breaks down the shift from block drills to games

Ep 1980 What Are the Five Attributes Every Great Rebounder Has?
https://teachhoops.com/
Title: What Are the Five Attributes Every Great Rebounder Has?
Subtitle: Why the best rebounders on the floor are rarely the tallest players in the gym
Show Notes
Every coach says they want a team that rebounds. Very few actually teach it. In this episode we break down the five attributes that show up in every great rebounder, and how to build each one in players who do

Ep 1979 What Should Your Basketball Team Be Doing Before Practice Even Starts?
https://teachhoops.com/
Title: What Should Your Basketball Team Be Doing Before Practice Even Starts?
Subtitle: How the ten minutes before the whistle shape everything that follows
Show Notes
Most coaches think practice begins when they blow the whistle. It doesn't. The habits players build walking into the gym, grabbing a ball, and getting shots up set the tone for the entire sessio

Ep 1978 Are You Letting One Game Define Your Season?
https://teachhoops.com/
How quickly can one basketball game become an entire story in an athlete’s mind?
A player has a great opening night and thinks, “This is finally my year.” Another struggles and immediately thinks, “Here we go again.” A player gets fewer minutes than expected and decides the coach no longer believes in them. A teammate has a breakout game and suddenly someone else begins w

Ep 1977 Coach Collins Art of Coaching Lessons
https://teachhoops.com/
In this episode of Coach Unplugged, we're diving deep into the world of coaching success with insights from legendary coach Steve Collins, who has led teams to 3 state championships and a record 14 consecutive conference wins.

Ep 1975 How Do You Build Real Confidence in Your Players?
https://teachhoops.com/
How Do You Build Real Confidence in Your Players?
Subtitle: Why confidence is built in practice, not handed out in pep talks
Show Notes
Every coach has said it. "Just be confident." It has never once worked. Confidence is not a mood you talk a player into. It is a byproduct of evidence. In this episode we break down where confidence actually comes from and how you engin

Ep. 1974 What Should Your Preseason Philosophy Actually Be?
https://teachhoops.com/
Title: What Should Your Preseason Philosophy Actually Be?
Subtitle: Deciding what preseason is for before you ever blow the first whistle
Show Notes
Most coaches script their preseason before they ever define it. Drills get picked, days get filled, and three weeks later the team is tired but not better. Philosophy comes first. Once you know what preseason is FOR in yo

Ep 1973 How Do You Evaluate and Assess Your Preseason?
https://teachhoops.com/
Title: How Do You Evaluate and Assess Your Preseason?
Subtitle: A simple framework for measuring what actually got better before the first game tips off
Show Notes
Preseason flies by, and most coaches judge it by feel. Did practice look sharp? Did the team seem to click? Feel is a bad measuring stick. In this episode we break down how to assess preseason with evidence i

Ep 1972 Building Culture Preseason: Are You Setting the Standard or Just Hoping for One?
Visit https://teachhoops.com/
Culture does not show up on its own in December. It gets built in the quiet weeks when nobody is watching, when there is no scoreboard and no crowd. In this episode we talk about what preseason culture work actually looks like, how to define standards your players can repeat back to you, and why the loudest speech you give in October is worth less than what you toler

Ep 1971 Is Effort a Talent Problem or a Coaching Problem?
https://teachhoops.com/
My kids do not play hard. It might be the oldest complaint in coaching, and in this episode Coach Collins argues that most coaches are diagnosing it wrong. When a team does not play hard, we tend to treat it like a character problem. That kid is lazy. This group is soft. But playing hard is not a personality trait. It is a standard, and standards have to be taught, defined

Ep 1966 Where am I today?
Long Show Notes
https://teachhoops.com/
Where does real improvement begin? Most athletes immediately think about more workouts, more shots, more film, more confidence, or becoming mentally tougher. But in this episode, Coach Collins argues that development starts somewhere much simpler and much more difficult: seeing yourself honestly.
This episode takes a deep dive into self-awareness and why

In this episode, Coach breaks down why teachhoops.com was built and why basketball coaches need more than random drills, plays, clips, and opinions. The modern coach does not suffer from a lack of information. The real problem is knowing what fits, what to use, when to use it, and how to

Ep 1963 The Hidden Hustle Stat: Building a Defense Around Deflections
https://teachhoops.com/
The box score says your team played great defense. Two blocks, four steals, plenty of highlights. So why did you give up 68 points? In this episode we tear into one of the most common lies in basketball: the idea that blocks and steals measure defensive quality. They don't. More often than not, they measure gambling, and gambling gets you beat.

Soccer Fans Waited 106 Minutes for One Goal. You Can't Handle a 45 Second Possession?
Spain just won the World Cup 1-0 with the only goal coming in the 106th minute, and over a billion people called it a masterpiece. Meanwhile, if a high school team holds the ball for 45 seconds, the gym loses its mind and the shot clock debate explodes all over again.

Ep 1949 Are Your Players Competing for Minutes or Chasing Their Potential?
https://teachhoops.com/
This episode is brought to you by TeachHoops.com, the online community where coaches stop feeling
like they're alone on a coaching island and start swapping ideas with peers who get it. In this episode,
we tackle one of the most corrosive dynamics in any locker room: players who compete against each
other for spots on the depth chart instead of competing against their own

Ep 1948 Maximize the Minutes: Auditing the Activity Density of Your Gym
https://teachhoops.com/
If you audit a standard, average basketball practice, you will witness a massive amount of invisible time leaking out of the gym. You will see a coach blow the whistle, call the players over, and lean against a wall for seven minutes lecturing about a new entry action while twelve athletes stand completely still, watching their physical core temperatures drop. Then, they s

Ep 1947 Bringing Energy to Practice Everyday
https://teachhoops.com/
If you walk into a basketball facility in the dead of winter on a freezing Tuesday afternoon in January, you can instantly feel the energy deficit. Lungs are heavy, legs are burning from a multi-game weekend stretch, and the gym is completely quiet. In a typical basketball program, the head coach reacts to this quiet atmosphere by pacing the baseline and screaming at the t

Ep 1946 What the Absolute Best Coaches Do Differently
https://teachhoops.com/
If you study the vast majority of athletic programs, you will see coaches who are entirely consumed by the physical mechanics of the game. They spend hours pacing the sideline, drawing up intricate tactical screens, and micro-managing their athletes' every step with a joystick mentality. They believe that winning is a direct product of holding the loudest whistle or hoardi

Ep 1944 The Strategy of the Stoppage: Mastering Timeout Management
https://teachhoops.com/
If you watch a mediocre basketball game, you will frequently see timeouts used as emotional panic buttons. A coach watches their team turn the ball over twice in a row, loses their composure on the baseline, and burns a 60-second stoppage just to scream at their players about effort. The players stand in a loose semi-circle, hang their heads through their physical exhaust,

Ep 1943 The 6 Winning Words: The Ultimate Anchor for a Program's Culture
https://teachhoops.com/
If you track the daily vocabulary echoing off the walls of a mediocre gym, you will hear a chaotic flood of reactive noise. Coaches scream directives every three seconds, players whisper excuses through their fatigue, and the entire ecosystem operates in a state of emotional volatility.
In a level 4 championship program, communication is treated as a premium currency. You

https://teachhoops.com/
If you are tired of traditional man-to-man coverage getting picked apart by elite individual creators, but you also hate how a passive 2-3 zone lets good shooting teams sit on the perimeter and hunt rhythm jumpers, it is time to step into the "Truth Room." You need a defensive system that offers the structural safety net of a zone with the aggressive, high-pressure account

Ep 1941 The Levels of Basketball Mastery: Which Question Defines Your Program?
https://teachhoops.com/
If you are evaluating your basketball program at the end of a week, a month, or a season, the absolute biggest trap you can fall into is measuring your success solely by the trailing indicator on the scoreboard. The scoreboard lies. Instead, true program builders look at a much deeper, more revealing metric: The Levels of Mastery.
Where does your team truly live when the

If your players are sitting in the locker room twenty minutes before a high-stakes game staring silently at their phones, listening to separate playlists on their headphones, or casually joking around about non-basketball topics, you have a massive culture leak.

When you step into a head coaching seat—whether it's your first year or your second time around—the most critical decisions you make happen before you ever draw up a baseline out-of-bounds play. You have to build your defensive and offensive shield, which means assembling a staff that features diverse tactical lenses and behavioral strengths.

https://teachhoops.com/
A playbook means absolutely nothing if the human beings running the actions don't trust each other or are checked out mentally. While the head coach has to keep an eye on the entire program, The Mediator—your Player Relations Lead and Energy Coordinator—is locked directly into the pulse of the locker room.

https://teachhoops.com/
We have all walked into a gym where a two-hour practice felt like a slow, disorganized lecture.
