Absolutely agree with the open gym being a free for all and anyone can come. I do attend open gyms to supervise but not instruct. They mostly like to run and it’s not organized ball at all. The players ask for open gyms ALL the time. Maybe they just don’t have another place to shoot around. I feel it’s important to allow the kids to be kids and play other sports too. Baseball interferes with our summer league basketball, but I don’t hold it against the baseball players. I do however hope they work on their basketball skills but realistically understand that likely doesn’t happen. We are a D5 school (D4 the last 2 years with enrollment teetering around 200 students). Next year we drop to D5 again because we went under 200 this year.
