Five sentences that can strengthen Coach-Player relationships:

3. Try this today...
4. How can I help you be at your best?
5. We are counting on you to...

Absolutely!! You can have all the talent in the world but if the coach can’t put it together you’re SOL!

Btw, we had Garza, Murray, Weiskamp, and Bohannon on the same team and didn’t get to the sweet 16. McCollum brings 6 players from Drake and gets us there in his first year at Iowa. Where are all the haters now?

As an AD, I challenge our coaches to separate production from potential. Potential is developed in practice. Production earns playing time on game day. If we want to build a winning program, we have to play the athletes who are helping us succeed right now, while intentionally developing those who can help us next.

As a coach, one of the best things you can say to an athlete is “You can do it. I believe in you!”

The only way your players will really listen to you is if they trust you.
Take the time to get to know each player on your team individually.

COACHES: Whatever you condone in your program is what you should be prepared to own and accept in your program. Don't be surprised when you get the very things you allow. What you accept, permit, reward, allow, or reinforce in your program becomes your culture.

The most valuable player on a team isn't always the player who scores the most.
Sometimes it's the player who brings energy, the player with a high IQ, a versatile skillset. The player w/ mental toughness who keeps the team beating to the same beat.
Valuable doesn't always = pts

And all it takes is one coach that can kill your confidence and love for the game. 😔
