Education
What sets this apart
Played It. Coached It.
Most trainers have done one or the other. Coach Geary has done both — competing at the collegiate level, training alongside WNBA professionals as a Connecticut Sun practice player, and coaching at the NCAA DIII level with a Skyline Conference championship. That dual lens means every drill and every correction comes from lived experience, not just theory.
Film-First Development
Using the same tools as college programs — Synergy Sports and FastModel — Coach Geary breaks down your game film and training footage the same way a college staff would. You'll learn to identify your tendencies, eliminate bad habits, and understand your game at a level most players never reach. This is real film study, not a highlight reel review.
Collegiate-Grade Scouting
The same scouting report framework used at Mount Saint Mary College gets applied to your development. Coach Geary builds individualized skill progression plans — not generic drills — based on position-specific demands, tendencies, and the actual gaps in your game. Guards and wings, this is where you level up.
A Recruiter's Eye
As the Recruiting Coordinator for an NCAA program, Coach Geary knows exactly what college coaches are looking for — on film, on the court, and in a player's character. That means you're not just getting better at basketball; you're being developed to be seen, evaluated, and recruited. 30+ players placed at the collegiate level and counting — 10+ at the Division I level alone.
Real Mentorship
Sessions at JustAnEmptyGym are built on trust, accountability, and intentional growth. Coach Geary coaches beyond the game — goal-setting, resilience, self-discipline, and the mindset tools players carry into the classroom, workplace, and life. This isn't just skill work. It's development for the whole person.
Network That Opens Doors
With active relationships across Division I, II, and III programs, AAU circuits, and professional environments, Coach Geary connects players to real opportunities. Whether it's a college look, an AAU roster spot, or a conversation with someone who can help — this network is built on years of real work, and it works for you.
