[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1350823, member: 7292"] I have coached AAU for a long time and Michael Sr. is very well connected, especially with Nike programs. He used to run a travel program in Midwest for a long time and knows the HS coaches, even prior to shoe companies getting more heavily involved with actively sponsoring AAU teams. He is extremely close with Mokan Elite (Nike) AAU program, founders and coaches, and a prominent figure in the EYBL tour. I know he is also good friends with some prominent DC and Mid-Atlantic coaches (one of them not Nike). So don't assume that he is not connected to AAU, because that is definitely not a correct assumption. [/QUOTE]
