"It comes back to growth. How are you making growth a habit? High school and college kids just assume growth is going to happen. But, the growth is all dependent on you. If you're not holding yourself accountable, you're not going to be able to grow the way you need to grow."

“When you allow your children to grow up it’s a direct, direct reflection of your parenting. If you hover over them all the time and they can’t work through problems, they’re going to have some issues. You’ve got to let them work through problems because they’re working through the things you’ve instilled in them,” Dawn Staley Let them learn.

“I feel like there’s always another level. My Dad always told me if you feel like you made it somewhere, start over. There’s challenges but that should make you stronger. Your team needs you, your coach needs you and they just want what’s best for you,” Trey Fort Earn it daily.

“ Character can be one of the biggest components in sports. If you’ve got great character, you’re connected, you’ve got a chance,” Jerrod Calhoun Winning begins with who you are and how you treat everyone around you. Character makes a difference.

“I don’t want you to like me today…..I want you to love me in a couple years.” Coaches would rather push you today than apologize for not preparing you for tomorrow.  Great leaders don’t lower the standard; they raise the person.

“You can win games with talented kids but championships are won with character because adversity hits and good kids fight,” Grant Leonard Grit is what proves that character is for real.

“Comparison is the thief of joy. Thats how you get in trouble, you know saying someone’s better than this player, not better than that player,” Kara Lawson Comparison measures people. Standards measure progress. If you focus on others, you lose sight of your identity.
