Couple days late on this one.... But for those of you that use 30 minutes in each set, how in the world do your players improve at all?! I took over a terrible team, just started with them. And I'm changing O&D. I'm prepared to have rough seasons, no biggie.
But with 25 minutes in each set, there's already not many minutes to spread around for growth. Isn't the rule of thumb that 7 holds steady in the cores, and 3 in PER/LP? Using those numbers, if you want growth, i would expect the bottom line to be 8 min and 4 for PER/LP. If you have a freshman with 10 in study hall, you got a bunch of 9's down the page. Barely any double digit practice categories.
Am I wrong on the minimums? Or do you just accept that your players aren't going to improve much that season when using 30 min or more for you O/D sets?
Please correct me if my rules are harmful: i don’t practice skills that are under 20 points and I don’t put in study hall minutes unless a kid is borderline after midterms. Leaves plenty of time left for core skills and O/D
I agree with the under 20 part, roughly. But study hall i always keep at10 the freshman year and decrease accordingly. I usually end up with smart players, and maybe I use just a feeeeew too many study hall minutes. Not much tho. But I'd rather do that, than have a player sit out for grades just cuz i was 2 minutes short on study hall. That would me horrible
