  • APRIL, 2011 BCAM MONTHLY REPORT from the Executive Director Tom Hursey
    APRIL, 2011 BCAM MONTHLY REPORT From the Executive Director Tom Hursey FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: I have just attended the Michigan State finals. What a weekend for basketball junkies. Twelve ball games in 3 days. Big crowds in the Breslin Center. A very successful BCAM Hospitality Room in the MSU Women’s practice gym with over 500 BCAM members, officials and guests in attendance. Two successful half-time events called the Top Shooters Challenge where our top free throw and 3-point shooters shoot-off for the title of champion. My BCAM hat goes off to Nate Hampton and the MHSAA tourney committee for their first-class production of the Girls and Boys State Basketball Championships. BCAM and the MHSAA have been working together for years with the goal of improving high school basketball in Michigan. The cost of the Hospitality Room is split with the MHSAA (not inexpensive). We work together to present the Legends Clinic to youngsters at Hoopfest along with organizing the Top Shooters Challenge. The MHSAA and BCAM have worked hard at improving sportsmanship through our Basketball Officials and Coaches Communication Committee (BOCCC) and our inaugural Top 100 Sportsmanship Award sponsored by the Michigan National Guard. The Reaching Higher Showcase is another joint venture between BCAM and the MHSAA. BCAM might be the only basketball association in the country that has such a great working relationship with their state athletic association. I can’t emphasize enough the importance o f our great sponsors. How can BCAM offer our popular School Special membership incentive? Simple: our sponsors allow this to happen and save coaches and schools a lot of money.

    100 YEARS OF MR. BASKETBALL BCAM Announces 10th and Final Round of “Retro” Mr. Basketball Winners. EAST LANSING, MI, April 1, 2019 - With the completion of the 2018-19 prep basketball season, the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan proudly wraps up their decade-long “Retro” Mr. Basketball project with the announcement of their final six honorees. Over the course of ten seasons, the project has examined the high school court careers of hundreds of the state’s finest. The list of 61 honorees, when combined with the winners of the current ‘Mr. Basketball’ award, first presented following the 1980-81 prep season, totals 100. A contiguous list of Michigan’s ‘Best of the Best’ now dates back to 1920. Noting the amazing pool of talented basketball players produced by the state over the years, past Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan Executive Director Tom Hursey and Michigan High School Athletic Association historian Ron Pesch hatched a plan to replicate the ‘Mr. Basketball’ concept, and apply it to the past. The goal was to name the top high school senior ballplayer for each of the 61 years between 1920 and 1980. To do so, Pesch hit the archives, examined the data, gathered names and assembled biographies, then provided a ballot. BCAM assembled a committee representing all parts of Michigan to examine the information, narrow the field to the best-of-the-best, and then vote for a winner. “All along, the idea was to focus solely on the high school playing careers of these individuals, just like the current award,” said Hursey.

  • La NBA, Deporte De Alto Riesgo
    NBA legends, deporte de alto riesgo… Canastos!!! …que te vas a caer… La NBA, deporte de alto riesgo • Recientemente se ha publicado que al menos el 40% de los jugadores de la NBA tiene problemas psicológicos detectados: depresiones, estrés, crisis de pánico, adicciones…No es de extrañar si tenemos en cuenta que los participantes de este hipercompetitivo mundillo están sometidos a una presión mediática insoportable, y se pasan la vida en aviones y hoteles, jugando hasta 3 partidos a la semana en ciudades separadas por enormes distancias. • En las décadas de los 80 y 90 hubo una epidemia de problemas de salud por la permisiva política de control de drogas de los organizadores ed la competición, con análisis de esteroides y psicoestimulantes avisados con antelación en los que se hacía la vista gorda si alguna estrella cometía algún pecadillo. Es paradigmático el caso de Len Bias, muerto a los 23 años cuando celebraba su elección como nº 2 de los draft por Boston Celtics en una noche desenfrenada de drogas y alcohol. Hay estadísticas que confirman que los jugadores de raza negra y mayor estatura son los más expuestos a morir prematuramente. Las especificidades morfológicas de algunos jugadores de basket también influyen: los más viejos os acordaréis de Vladimir Tkachenko, el acromegálico pivot del TSKA de Moscú que dominaba la pintura de todas las canchas europeas en los 80. Más recientemente Jonathan Jeane, una de las mayores promesas de la NBA ha visto en peligro su carrera por estar afectado por el síndrome de Marfan. • La lista de estrellas retiradas –algunos todavía en activo- muertas en la cincuentena sobre todo por fallos cardíacos es interminable, y no sólo en los que habían descuidado su peso y forma física tras retirarse.

East Lansing, MI, April 7, 2017: Forty years after scoring his last basket at the high school level, Earvin “Magic” Johnson is finally a BCAM Mr. Basketball. “When we began talking about this award, we thought of all the great players who never had the opportunity to win it,” said Al Schaffer, chairman of the Association’s Mr. Basketball committee at the announcement of the Michigan’s Mr. Basketball award back in 1981. “Players like Earvin Johnson, Dave DeBusschere, Chet Walker, Frank Tanana Sr., Mel Peterson, Richie Jordan, Campy Russell and many, many others.” In 2010, the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan launched a decade long program meant to honor those very athletes. The Retro Mr. Basketball award looks back at the state’s top senior prep basketball players for the years 1920 through 1980. This year marks the eighth year of the project, and places the spotlight on the senior athletes for the years that end in seven – 1927, 1937, 1947, 1957, 1967 and 1977. “Those six school years include some of the state’s greatest names,” said BCAM president Tom Hursey. “BCAM was incorporated in the summer of 1976, and first presented the ‘Mr. Basketball’ award in 1981 to Lansing Eastern’s Sam Vincent. Earvin ‘Magic’ Johnson was one of the inspirations for the award. It’s nice to see him honored after all these years.” Members of the Association’s Retro Mr.
