How do you actually develop better shooters—not just players who shoot well in drills?

NBA shooting coach Dave Love returns to the JAMODI Podcast for his second appearance to dive deep into shooting development, skill acquisition, and how coaches can build practices that transfer to games.

Dave breaks shooters into four different levels—weak, below average, above average, and elite—and explains why each should be trained differently. He introduces the concept of periodization for shooting, discusses movement coordination and skill adaptability, and explains why making 9 out of 10 shots in a drill may actually mean the drill isn't challenging enough.

We also break down one of my own high school shooting workouts, with Dave offering practical ways to improve it.

In this episode:

🏀 The four levels of shooters 🎯 Why every shooter shouldn't train the same way 🧠 Periodization for shooting development 🔵 Movement coordination vs. skill adaptability 🟢 Building game-representative shooting workouts 📈 The challenge-point principle ⚖️ Why balance matters in shooting development ❌ Why making more shots in practice isn't always better 🏀 Moving beyond stationary spot shooting 🔥 Creating practice that actually transfers to games 🎯 How high school coaches can individualize shooting development 💡 Why every drill needs a specific purpose 🏆 Developing shooters patiently over time

Dave also shares a powerful idea that runs throughout the conversation: developing a shooter requires persistent patience. Coaches aren't simply teaching players to shoot better—they're developing skills and habits that take time to change.

What does it really take to build a championship program?

Coach Emund Prichett joins the JAMODI Podcast to share the journey of building Mansfield Summit basketball—from going 1–14 in district during his first season to developing a program capable of competing for championships.

Coach Prichett opens up about the difficult early years, the mistakes that helped him grow as a coach and person, and the decision to stop focusing on expectations and start focusing on getting better every single day.

The conversation goes far beyond wins and losses. Coach Prichett discusses building relationships before demanding results, creating a culture players believe in, holding athletes accountable without losing connection, handling transfers, developing players in the spring, allowing teams to develop their own personality, and creating an environment where sacrifice matters more than individual statistics.

He also shares a powerful philosophy on playing time: every player is needed for all 32 minutes—whether they are on the floor or contributing energy, focus, and support from the bench.

In this episode:

🏀 Building Mansfield Summit from the ground up📈 Why growth matters more than expectations🏆 Preparing for championships long before March🤝 Capturing a player's heart before their mind💪 Creating accountability and consistent standards🔄 Handling transfers and player movement🎯 Developing individual players during the offseason🧠 Learning when to loosen up as a head coach🙌 Why sacrifice separates winning teams⏱️ The "32 Minutes" philosophy🔥 Why culture and identity create consistency❤️ Building relationships that go beyond basketball

Tony Miller, head men’s basketball coach at Bob Jones University and host of the A Quick Timeout Podcast, joins the JAMODI Podcast for Episode 321.

Four years after his first appearance on the podcast, Coach Miller returns to discuss what he has learned since moving into the head coaching chair and the responsibility that comes with leading an entire program.

Tony shares why successful programs must be person-development centric, not simply player-development centric, and explains how Bob Jones University has built its program around three core values: Character, Competitiveness, and Connectedness.

We also dive into developing assistant coaches beyond X’s and O’s, creating transformational relationships with players, involving family in your program, building confidence through freedom, and designing practices that teach players how to think rather than simply telling them what to do.

Coach Miller also shares practical ideas for end-of-game situations, conceptual offense, shot selection, player meetings, giving effective feedback, and creating a culture that shows up every day—not just on a T-shirt or poster.

Topics include:

• Transitioning from assistant coach to head coach

• Running and managing an entire basketball program

• Person development vs. player development

• Character, Competitiveness & Connectedness

• Standards vs. rules

• Developing assistant coaches

• Building transformational relationships

• Creating a family atmosphere

• Giving players freedom within structure

• Teaching players to think and problem-solve

• End-of-game situations

• Giving better feedback

• Shot selection

• Conceptual offense and decision-making

• Creating a culture players want to be part of
