Camp is getting close! Hope to see you there!

@EastynWilkie Congratulations. I’m very proud of you

Such an amazing accomplishment! This year was filled with tons of growth, and I can’t wait to see what next year holds in store for me!

Bill Walsh coached Joe Montana and Steve Young. He invented the West Coast offense. Won 3 Super Bowls. But he changed football forever through the systems and leadership he created. Here's him explaining the 4 most powerful words in leadership: (📌Bookmark this)

The summer before Kobe's 81-point game, he made 1,000 shots per day. Not just any shots - specific game shots. Corner jumpers. Post moves. Off-screens. 45 minutes on the same exact shot until it was reflex. Here's the full Mamba Training Mentality: (📌Bookmark this)

Proud of Tahlie today! We are heading back to state! She broke her own regional meet record from last year by 2 3/4 inches throwing 17-8.75. #proudcoach

Yep

Brad Stevens was asked about his non-negotiables in sports and life. He named 3 things. Simple. Clear. They had nothing to do with winning and everything to do with why people loved playing for him. Here's what he said and how you can use it: (📌Bookmark for later)

Cori Close (@CoachCoriClose) shares a must-listen message on what it takes to be special. "Do you want special? Then you better get used to hard." "Tell me one person in this life, in any area of life, that did something special that didn't embrace hard. That didn't embrace the adversity." Success is earned in the struggle. "It's the people who embrace hard. Perseverance. All of those things that need to happen." Then she got honest about her own leadership: "Get ready to push that. Get ready to take that on for your players first so that they can see the role modeling of someone who faces hard, who embraces hard." Leaders go first. You can't ask your team to embrace hard if you're not willing to do it yourself. You have to be willing to embrace adversity. Adversity isn't a roadblock - it's the path. (🎥 USA Basketball)

🚍 Who are you letting on your bus? Coach K shared one of the best pieces of advice he ever received… ❤️ Straight from his mom The people you surround yourself with will take you places you’d never reach alone — good or bad Your circle either opens doors… or slams them shut forever Most people are stuck because of who they keep around them…

You don’t have to be a star to get recruited — but you do have to be a leader. College coaches are clocking your engagement, your energy, and how you treat your teammates on film long before they look at your stat line. Find ways to lead from wherever you are on that roster.

Every training camp I had at Washington State University, Coach Leach would share the same story. The story of two kids. The rich kid and the poor kid. The rich kid has two choices. He can become spoiled, entitled, lazy, and expect everything to be handed to him because he has been given more. Or he can take every advantage of what he has been given—resources, coaching, opportunities—and use it to become even better. The poor kid has two choices too. He can say, “I never had a chance. Nobody gave me anything. The world is against me.” He can feel sorry for himself and use it as an excuse. Or he can say, “I may not have what they have, but I am going to outwork everybody.” He can become tougher, more driven, and more relentless than everybody else. It was a powerful message in a locker room full of people from different backgrounds, different families, and different life experiences. Some guys came from wealth. Some came from almost nothing. Some had every opportunity. Others had to fight for every inch. But despite all of those differences, everybody still had the same choice. You can take ownership and use what you have as fuel. Or you can become victim-minded. You can look for excuses, blame your circumstances, become entitled, and convince yourself that because of what you have—or because of what you do not have—you cannot become what you want to be. It is not about how you start. It is about what you choose to do with how you start. The rich kid can waste what he has been given or use it to build something greater. The poor kid can use his circumstances as an excuse or as fuel. In the end, greatness does not come from starting with more or less. It comes from which person inside of you that you choose to feed.

Kirby Smart doesn’t talk about winning - he talks about his non-negotiables. A masterclass on standards, toughness, and relentless effort. (📌Bookmark for later)

John Wooden shares a mindset that we all need to adopt every day. "Yesterday is gone. That'll never change. Tomorrow is yet to be." "How can you affect tomorrow? By today. That's the only possible way." "I tried to get each player to make each day his masterpiece." Don't get caught up in the past or worry about the future - make today your masterpiece. Then he shared advice he gave to certain players: "You've gotta put the past out. Good or bad, it's past - it'll never change. The only way you can affect the future is what you do today." You can't change yesterday. You can't control tomorrow. You only have today. Then he recited a poem by Vivian Larimore that he loved: "I've shut the door on yesterday, its sorrows and mistakes. I've locked within its gloomy walls past failures and heartaches." "And now I throw the key away to seek another room and furnish it with hopes and smiles and every springtime bloom." "I've shut the door on yesterday and thrown the key away. Tomorrow holds no fears for me, for I have found today." "Today is the day that counts. It's today." The present moment is the only place where you can truly make a difference. Don't carry yesterday's failures or worry about the unknown. Focus on what you can control.

30 years ago I was the starting QB at Utah State University. My senior year I got benched. For the next 15 years I walked around feeling like a certified loser. Then I read this quote from Pat Summitt: 'Winning is fun… Sure. But winning is not the point. Wanting to win is the point. Not giving up is the point. Never letting up is the point. Never being satisfied with what you’ve done is the point.' It snapped me out of it. If you’re still carrying a sports setback, a benching, a missed opportunity, or any “I’m not enough” story… this is your permission slip to drop it. The game isn’t over. Your story is not yet written. You are still a work in progress. The point is you keep wanting it. You keep getting up. And you listen to that quiet voice that says, "I will try again tomorrow."

🥹❤️ WOW! Couldn’t be more proud. Congrats @roriiiharmonnn ! Next stop, THE WNBA!
