Back from NCAA Tournament and had this wonderful gift in my mailbox from @Chip_Pugh, my long time friend and college roommate his first book: “Made to Win.” Excited to read in the coming few weeks.

As the endless swirls of rumors that’s part of this time of the season that the pro drafts and college basketball carousel and portal has become, here’s something to keep in mind that’s applicable to ALL seasons of life:

Casual folks say X is a good job, or Y is a good job, or Z but often there’s not an understanding how important the infrastructure of people really make a good job. You CANNOT be long term successful unless (college) administration or (pro) front office supports you as a coach.

While I appreciate an increased level of interest media & social media has given women’s basketball, I would gently remind those ‘covering’ our game to get educated & fully immerse yourselves in ALL of the context/stories of our wonderful athletes & coaches & not just headlines.

Apparently, the serving size for chips is 10 chips. Listen, I eat 10 chips while deciding if I even want chips.

Leading the Rebs Coach Yo has led No. 14 @OleMissWBB to a 20–5 record, the best start since she took over at Ole Miss, while keeping the Rebels undefeated at home. This marks five consecutive seasons with 20+ wins!

Basketball is what we do, but not who we are. It allows us to express fundamentally our grit, resilience, competitiveness and our ability to foster quality relationships. Sport doesn’t define us but how we ‘do’ sport (not the result) IS a reflection of our character.

To every first responder, lineman and woman, organization, and individual who stepped up — thank you. Your continued work is helping our community recover and rebuild after Winter Storm Fern. Oxford is special because of its people, and together, we are stronger. #HottyToddyStrong

Oxford, MS is a mess!!! These pictures were posted by the City of Oxford and EMA. Over 150 thousand homes without power across Northwest Mississippi. Temps overnight in Oxford will be in the teens. Keep these people in your thoughts and prayers.

For my southern friends experiencing driving in ice or snow for the first time:

One of the fundamental things in coaching and teaching: Don’t give up on people early.

Just a thought: If it happens all the time, perhaps what media calls upsets just because there’s a number by a team’s name, aren’t upsets and it’s just that there are a lot of quality players, teams, and coaches in Women’s Basketball all over the country. #WatchWomensSports
