Testimonials about the program and its director include a statement from Mike Vandegarde, a 15-year NBA scout, former Texas State coach, and former pro player, who describes sending players to Chris Corbett and continuing to recommend players to him. Another testimonial states, “We learned more in two training sessions than we had in a whole season of select basketball.” A third testimonial from Mark Acres, a 7-year NBA veteran with the Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic, describes Chris Corbett’s approach as based on dedication and focus and notes that any player or program would benefit from having Chris involved in player development and reaching for higher standards.
