from JAMODI Podcast Hosted by JAMODI Podcast

How do great coaches build teams that win year after year? In Episode 316 of the JAMODI Podcast, Langston University Head Men's Basketball Coach Sam Kohnke shares how he develops winning programs by recruiting competitors, teaching basketball through concepts instead of memorized plays, and creating players who can think and make decisions under pressure. Coach Kohnke discusses: 🏀 Recruiting "dogs" instead of just talent 🏀 Why concepts outperform rigid offensive systems 🏀 Teaching players to make better decisions 🏀 Creating anti-fragile teams that thrive in chaos 🏀 Building trust so players stay bought in 🏀 Developing offensive freedom without losing accountability 🏀 Why defense is black-and-white while offense lives in the gray 🏀 Lessons learned from Grant McCasland, Ross Hodge and Ben McCollum 🏀 Practice design that transfers directly to games 🏀 Leadership, culture, and winning over the long haul If you're a basketball coach looking to build a tougher, smarter, more connected team, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can implement immediately. 🎙️ Just A Matter Of Doing It. 🎧|🎥 JAMODI PODCAST 💪 Powered by: Ballogy | Sideline Interactive | Grip Spritz | Scoreboard Media
