This is the AAU conversation everyone has been waiting for.
On Keep It A Buck Episode 88, we sit down with the founders and coaches of TNE (Team New England) AAU Basketball to clear up the biggest misconceptions surrounding AAU hoops.
Is AAU really just a money grab for program owners?
Is travel basketball overpriced and overrated?
Does AAU actually help player development—or hurt it?
And who is AAU REALLY for?
Instead of outside opinions and internet narratives, we go straight to the source. The TNE coaches break down:
• 💰 Where AAU money actually goes
• 🚌 The truth about travel costs
• 🏀 Skill level gaps & competition myths
• 🎯 The real purpose AAU serves for players and families
• 📈 What parents SHOULD be paying attention to (and what they shouldn’t)
No sugarcoating. No fake outrage. Just real answers from people who live this every day.
Whether you’re a parent, player, coach, or just tired of the AAU debate being all noise and no facts—this episode is a MUST WATCH.
