Welcome to Hoop Vision!
UPDATE: As of June 2024, Hoop Vision is no longer active. You can read more about the decision to move on in our announcement newsletter here.
Led by former Division I analytics & video specialist Jordan Sperber, Hoop Vision has grown into a leading voice in the college basketball media landscape, bringing substance and perspective to an industry rife with cliche and tired narrative.
Since the 2019-20 season, Hoop Vision Plus (shortened to HV+), has been a subscription product which includes a premium newsletter, exclusive audio and video, and community features.
With a data-driven, video-heavy approach, Hoop Vision brings you coverage through the eyes of a college basketball coaching staff. Content ranges from scouting threads on Twitter to newsletter deep dives into specific systems and topics, to comprehensive breakdowns of offensive systems on YouTube.
An invaluable resource for coaches/scouts and passionate fans alike, Hoop Vision coverage provides a blend of statistical analysis, video coverage, and insider access to leading coaches and voices in the college basketball community.
Want to get a better feel for Hoop Vision content before subscribing to Hoop Vision Plus? Here’s a quick sampling of some favorites:
A comprehensive playlist of YouTube videos with deep x’s and o’s dives into the major offensive systems used in college hoops
A newsletter examining whether or not offenses should play faster
Far-reaching podcast discussions with media members like Ken Pomeroy and Fran Fraschilla, along with coaches like Jon Scheyer and Niko Medved
Along with all that, a Twitter feed (@hoopvision68) with real-time analysis, scouting threads, and ever-popular research and leaderboards on Division I programs and coaches
