I texted a coach this morning and asked how the new job was going after about a month. His response was one I’ve heard many times… and lived myself: “Not bad. Some kids pushing back culture wise. Always worried about staff and numbers.” If you go into a program and start making the changes that need to be made, be ready for pushback. That’s normal. My advice to him: Water the good grass. Don’t let the weeds hold you hostage. Too many coaches start looking the other way because they want to keep players and coaches happy. They convince themselves they can slowly change the culture. It doesn’t work that way. Culture doesn’t drift in the right direction. It moves toward the standard you enforce. Stay strong to your principles. The right grass will grow. 🌱🏈 @fastnwide

This is awesome. Clemson baseball has a tradition of players going up in the stands during the 4th inning to shake hands with Veterans. Today, on opening day, the Army baseball team joined in with them @ClemsonBaseball 🤝 @ArmyWP_Baseball

During the biathlon event one contestant knocks the pole out of his competitors hand by accident. He then gives him one of his own to make up for it.
