“DAD, HOW GOOD WAS THE ENDING OF THE #STEELERS - #CARDINALS SUPER BOWL XLIII…?” ONE OF THE THREE GREATEST GAMES IN FOOTBALL HISTORY:

“Administrations win championships. Coaches win games… if you’re not totally into it and they’re not committed, you’re not winning. You just can’t.” True at the high school level as well… x.com/slancehoops/st…

Tom Izzo shares an uncomfortable truth about earning your spot. "You play real good, you start. You don't play as good, you work your way back in." "That's the American way - except America has gotten soft." You don't get what you want in life - you get what you earn. It starts with showing up and earning it every single day. No shortcuts...Just hard work. (🎥@CBBonFOX )

Charles Barkley on coaches that coach their guys hard “Parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."

Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo: "The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."

Parents: The ONLY thing that you should say to your child after a game is... "I love watching you play". Let them do any other talking

A coach who holds you accountable sees more in you than you currently see in yourself. That is not mean. That is a gift.

1989 was a great year. One of the Toledo City Schools that closed later. This school had a “pretty good” player. Actually several!

We need more coaches like this in sports. This man could coach my son any day of the week. He’s raising MEN, he doesn’t have time for bitches.

As an AD, I have learned that supportive families who truly understand the value of athletics are essential to the culture of a program. Their encouragement, perspective, and belief in the bigger picture must always be louder than the negativity.

Say it with me now. A coach holding you to a standard is not being mean.

The best assistant coaches do three things well: 1. Support the head coach publicly 2. Challenge the head coach privately 3. Serve the players daily Loyalty doesn’t mean silence. It means alignment and trust.

Great Assistants Coaches: 1. Have loyalty 2. Share their voice 3. Bring positive energy 4. Stay poised & composed 5. Are committed and put in the time 6. Do the little things to help the team 7. Have positive relationships with all players

Loyal assistant coaches matter more than most people realize. They support the vision. They protect the culture. They tell you the truth. Great programs aren’t built by one coach. They’re built by a loyal staff that pulls in the same direction.
