Wes Lambert - Founder of Ball Coach AI & Maryville (TN) High School Boys’ Basketball Head Coach

Wes Lambert is the Founder of Ball Coach AI and the Boys’ Basketball Head Coach at Maryville (TN) High School. Ball Coach AI scouts your team and your opponents, builds your playbook, runs your call sheet, and tracks games live, so you walk into every gym already prepared.

On this episode Mike & Wes discuss how Ball Coach AI can make coaching work more organized and efficient. Wes explains how coaches can turn saved plays or even a napkin sketch into searchable diagrams, add coaching notes, and use animated playbooks to help players understand actions in timeouts. He describes opponent scouting and self-scouting that combine statistics with coaches’ observations, including an example where an updated five-guard lineup was caught before a game. In-game stat tracking can flag trends such as six straight empty possessions while practice planning can draw on team stats and previous matchups. The conversation emphasizes that technology should inform, not replace, a coach’s judgment and communication, while freeing more time for players and family.
