@DavidEickholt Also do a deep dive into whether or not their offensive production increases this year from wins as well as points scored

@DavidEickholt They don’t anymore, they are now a gun offense coastal Carolina type offense.

Army's top two wide receivers have a total of 458 receiving yards this season. Cade McNamara has a total of 459 passing yards this season. Army typically runs triple-option/wishbone style offense.

I too was confused by “Vision and Mission” statements . . . UNTIL I discovered the brilliantly clarifying description by Jim Collins in BE 2.0. Vision and Mission Statements are less than worthless the way most organizations write them. 1) No discernible difference between Vision or Mission. 2) An excess of fancy words to say nothing of substance or value. 3) A distracting waste of time that no one references, doesn't direct front line decision-making, and are garbled word salad that sounds indistinguishable from any other org's vision and mission statement. Jim Collins finally made it make sense (paraphrased): Purpose = "Our North Star, why we exist, always move towards but never attained." Mission = "the specific mountain we are climbing: a bold, compelling, audacious goal with a clear finish line and specific time frame." Vision = "the net combo of our Purpose + Mission + Core Beliefs" That made it click for me in a practical, business-value way: • Here's our North Star we must stay directionally pointed toward (Purpose) • Here's the mountain we're climbing and when we need to reach the summit (Mission) • That's our Vision. Do you want to follow that North Star and climb that Mountain, then the next Mountain, then the next, with us? Only problem is, this description makes most Vision and Mission Statements look EVEN WORSE by comparison, but at least now I don't discard the exercise altogether. Only the poorly written, distracting, value-diminishing ones.

Identify your STANDARDS. How you show up matters. Standard over feelings. - @continuedfight via @jongordon11 #ThePositiveSummit

Dream. Plan. Do. Review. = How you accomplish any goal. - @jonacuff via @jongordon11 's #ThePositiveSummit

Character is the cornerstone of trust. Before you can lead others, you must first manage yourself. The credibility of a leader begins with the integrity of the leader. Your culture cannot become what you are not. If it’s not happening in you, it won’t happen through you.

@coachmatsumoto I think in football: team and team identity, it’s special and important, but sometimes can be isolated to a season of time. When Kids, coaches, and administrations and organizations are invested in all phases - mental, physical, spiritual across all levels it becomes a program

@coachmatsumoto Team: a unit that works towards a goal, the team largely sacrifice for the goals of the team over a season. Program: multilevel, multi directional, multi purpose system of doing things. Programs serve and sacrifice and develop across the spectrum of the organization needs.

What are some main differences between a team and a program?
