WIAA needs to put in a shot clock period. Leads to more coaching, cleans up end of games, prepares kids for the next level. It just makes the game better. Cost is minimal. Lets take a step forward.

Two simple things that help take basketball to the next level in WI: 1. Add a shot clock 2. Add a charge circle Would both be absolutely great for the game!

Four improvements I'd like to see to High School Basketball by WIAA: 1. 35 Second Shot Clock 2. 6 or 8 Division 1 Teams at State Tournament 3. Charge Circle 4. Go back to Coaches Voting on Tournament Seeds All of these would improve the game in my Opinion.

Watching NCAA games tonight, I cannot imagine these games without a shot clock. It doesnt call for less coaching, it calls for more. It won't decrease numbers of participants. It may actually increase them. Lets add it to HS games in Wisconsin, it's time.

Shot clocks approved in Illinois. Full implementation in 2026. Now, Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa all with Shot Clocks! If these states can all find a way, so can Wisconsin!

Have heard AAU programs promising 11u-14u players and families, that their program is playing in tournaments with College Coaches present at 11u-14u This is not real. With the portal and 5 years, College Coaches get to 17s in Late April/May. They will not pull up and watch 13u

We beat Monona Grove tonight 70-51 to advance to sectionals for the first team in 19 years. The change from 4 wins in 2018-19 to 18 and a sectional birth in 2020-21 is tremendous. Culture is truly changing!!!

Still astounded that we can run the shot clock flawlessly at AAU events with College students, but we don't think we can find someone to run it at a High School Game. Gameplay is so much better and more fluid. End of games has flow. Comeon Wisconsin lets do better

In a week, the computers will do WIAA seedings for the tournament. I always have preferred in person, coaches voting. Still would. I can deal with computers but would prefer a appeals process to what they calculate. Multiple things not considered that ahould be IMO.

Have never seen a conference as a whole disrespected like the Big 8 by computers. Madison Memorial is in 2nd and gets a #10 seed? In my 5 years coaching here this is the best the Big 8 has been. Let coaches vote, have an appeal process, something has to change.....
