    I hear you. I'm with you 100%.

    I record horizontal. Those shorts and reels have been edited to vertical to allow for decent quality on Instagram and TikTok.
    Here is the full size horizontal clip from the games.
    Note: YouTube is still processing, so it may not be HD for a few minutes.

    Please for the love of all that is holy ... follow this advice! The two guys that work full time in video know what we are talking about. Unless you're doing a video and only want to watch it on TikTok/Shorts/Reels than by all means keep the phone vertical, but if you want to watch on any other platform and especially if you're sending this video out, than go with the landscape mode!

    HA! My brother sends me video of my nephew playing ball and it's hilarious. I try cutting it together for him and make a little highlight video. But it looks like shit when we try to show the family on the big screen.

    In defense of this way if thinking, Dame has asked me to take pics of him and somebody 3 different things. And he cracks up and calls me out when I don't hold it like a soccer mom. I tell him to "stick to scoring 20,000+ points and the expert will handle the media management!" HA!

    Kait's first HS game in almost a year.

    There was an audible murmur from the crowd when she went to the table to sub in, and a big cheer when she ran onto the court.

    We knew they were going to bring her back slowly. She only got about 3 minutes, but she immediately sparked an 8-0 run her first minute and a half stretch, hit the game tying free throw in the middle of that 8-0 run. Ended up going 3 of 4 from the charity stripe.

    OC never trailed after that.

    The team was noticably more confident and crisp with her on the court.

    The Old Man is pretty proud.

    One of our friends took the pictures, and did an awesome job!

    Did she have an ACL tear? Looks like she's doing a great job! I had a full knee replacement at the end of October so I know what rehab is like BIG TIME!

    Yep. Full ACL tear. She worked her butt off to get back. Basically been a body builder for the last 6 months. Doesn't quite have her explosiveness back yet, but it's getting there.

    That’s fantastic man. What a great feeling to see her back out there. My son was the starting RB his senior year and had a spiral fracture of his tibia and fibula in his first game. Rehabbed and went on to play JC ball.
    My daughter broke her collarbone twice in 4 months…..rehabbed her ass off and was able to get a D1 scholarship. Tell yours to keep grinding! Sky’s the limit for her! Love it!

    Kaitlen played quite a bit more last night, and played very well. She said fighting the brace makes her more tired. But she only has to wear it for another week or so.

    Thanks @THE HCP !

    I've showed her your daughter's social media and that has definitely been a huge source of inspiration.

    Love it brother! Yessir, that social media in today’s recruiting game is SO important. Hope she continues to thrive. Keep the updates coming.

    I met Phat! Last night. Oregon City girls vs Lake Oswego. Was there to see another game…remembered this thread…saw pics from the thread and saw his wife in the stands sitting next to him….figured that must be the guy…Jason Bourne style picked the right person and introduced myself. First S2 member I’ve met. His girl and team looked great- good player and well done Phat!

    She does yes, but I would totally shut her down! Force her to the go left…she wouldn’t be able to handle my defensive pressure! #BAM

    You might be right. Is there a shot clock? It would probably take her at least 30 seconds to dribble around you.
