Brad Stamps is in his 7th season as the Head Boys’ Basketball Coach at his alma mater, Fayetteville High School in Arkansas. Brad’s first job was coaching 8th grade basketball at Woodland Junior High where he worked alongside his mentor and former Fayetteville High School Head Coach Kyle Adams. Stamps later became the head coach at Shiloh Christian where he took a program that had won only one game the year before he arrived and turned it into a 28 game winner and state semifinalist in his final season. Brad also served as the head coach at Springdale High School where he won two conference championships in 6 years and led the team to a state runner-up finish in his fifth year.
Stamps has also had several stints as an assistant coach and brings a unique perspective regarding the relationships, responsibilities, and skill sets needed to succeed as both a head coach and an assistant.
On this episode Mike and Brad discuss what it takes to build a successful high school basketball program in 2026. Brad shares the importance of nurturing relationships within the basketball community, particularly between coaches, players, and their families. He explains how effective coaching transcends just on-court instruction, advocating for a holistic approach that fosters emotional connections and personal growth among athletes. The discussion further explores the structural alignment of high school basketball programs, highlighting the necessity of integrating youth and middle school teams with the high school framework to ensure sustained success. As we delve into Stamps' strategies and philosophies, listeners are afforded a comprehensive perspective on the multifaceted responsibilities of a modern high school basketball coach.
