    How to Teach Decision Making

    Why do players struggle to execute in games what they can do in practice? The answer isn't more reps, it's understanding the difference between recognition, decision-making, and execution. 📧 Get weekly coaching insights in our newsletter:: https://savi.beehiiv.com/ Tyler sits down with Kyle Koszuta, a former Division I basketball player turned professional pickleball athlete, to break down what he's learned about skill development by going from never playing pickleball to pro in 15 months. Kyle shares the three-step framework (recognize, decide, execute) that's transforming how he trains, and how it applies directly to basketball coaching. You'll learn why most players think their problem is execution when it's actually recognition, how to coach aggressive mistakes vs. bad mistakes, and why your press break fails even though you've practiced it 100 times.

    A Simple Tool for a Better Practice

    In this episode of The Hours, Tyler and Mark break down one of the most powerful yet underutilized coaching tools. The best coaches don't just demonstrate perfect execution—they show corrections in real-time, create contrast between wrong and right, and let their athletes see the learning process unfold. This builds buy-in, accelerates learning, and creates a culture where mistakes become opportunities.

    The Best Way to Start Practice

    Your filter into practice might be killing your gym before you even blow the whistle. Most coaches walk in scanning for mistakes. That means your players feel like they're failing before they even start. In this episode, we break down the 6-to-1 encouragement ratio—why it matters, how to implement it, and what changes when you commit to looking for the good first. This isn't about being soft. It's about being smart with how you coach.

    How to Get Players to Learn Faster

    Coaches talk too much. Players learn too little. This episode fixes that. In this episode of The Hours, Mark Cassio and Tyler Coston break down one of the most powerful (and misunderstood) teaching tools in coaching: The Plus One Principle. If you’ve ever: Overloaded your players with feedbackWatched practice look good but games fall apartFelt like you’re “teaching” but players aren’t improvingThis conversation is for you. The Plus One Principle is simple: 👉 Teach one thing 👉 Let players apply it 👉 Then — and only then — plus one We unpack: Why most coaches try to build the entire house at onceThe three most common teaching mistakes coaches makeHow simplicity actually speeds up learningHow to use Plus One in practice, player development, film, and shootingWhy “intangibles” are not soft — they’re trainable skillsThis isn’t about running better drills. It’s about becoming a better teacher of the game. Our mission is clear: We’re here to push back against traditional, toxic coaching and help coaches create environments where players actually learn. If you’re a youth coach, high school coach, college coach, or pro — this applies to you. 🔗 Want more support?

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.

  7. Why We Stopped Running Plays and Started Developing Players

    Why We Stopped Running Plays and Started Developing Players

    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 Coaches Leave 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.
