This site is where I document some of what I see while studying college basketball.

I only break down players and teams I’ve scouted in person.

In my work, I attempt to capture the true essence and relevant context of the players and teams I analyze.


December 2025 – College Layup returns

2022-2025 – Live Scouting College Teams and Players nationally

  • I couldn’t stay out of the gym. The pull, desire, and need was always still there. 

2015-2025 – Town Pharmacy

2014-2016 – Volunteer Assistant Coach, United States Merchant Marine Academy (Division III)

  • Assisted in all aspects of the program daily, primarily self and opponent scouting, through words and video. Our staff disbanded upon our Head Coach being hired as an Assistant at Rutgers. 

2013-2014 – College Layup

  • Created CollegeLayup.com in October 2013. It was a private website shared with one NBA front office and one college program for the entirety of the year. 

2009-2013 – NYU / SLAM Magazine / SlamOnline.com

  • During my time as a student at NYU (2009-2013), I was fortunate to get an internship and then a paid position at SLAM Magazine in NYC. I worked there almost full time for nearly four years while in college, gaining exposure to basketball at every level. I was fortunate to cover a lot of high school basketball, summer tournaments, NBA games and more.
