In this episode we chat with long-time youth, high school and college basketball coach Jim Huber.  Jim is Director of Coach & Curriculum Development for Breakthrough Basketball (breakthroughbasketball.com).  He's won many championships as a coach and developed over 50 collegiate players and 10 professional players.  But more importantly, he has focused on impacting the lives of his players by developing life skills and character through sport.  Jim takes a holistic approach to coaching and discusses the importance of moving beyond the physical and positively addressing the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the young athletes he coaches.  We start off with a discussion of the dangers of early sport specialization.
