Truth in the Trenches
Hosted by Kevin Howell, Founder of The One-Eyed Scout
Truth in the Trenches is a coach-driven series focused on the real dynamics of basketball programs: trust, roles, habits, development, and what actually wins games over time. It’s evaluator-first, scheme-aware, and built for coaches who care about execution more than optics. No fan talk. No highlight bias. Just reality from inside the gym.
Audience: College & serious high-school coaches
Tone: Direct, analytical, uncomfortable when necessary
Lane: Program truth + evaluation logic
