Coach Johnny

Facts! 💯

I asked Dan Hurley the same question I asked Tom Izzo: why does the media have a problem with coaches coaching players hard? Hurley: "Society has gotten soft in a lot of ways... The real world is tough and cruel... I'm preparing my players for life."

The football community lost a great coach yesterday. Coach Bob Hanna passed away, leaving behind a legacy that impacted players and coaches. His leadership, mentorship, and passion for the game helped shape countless young men both on and off the field. Rest in peace, Coach Hanna

Magic Johnson tells funny story when Pat Riley told him to shoot more and he said ‘did you talk to Kareem?’ “One of the best days is when he said ‘buck, you’re gonna have to score more.’ That means I gotta shoot more then. He said ‘that’s what I’m asking you to do.’ I said ‘did you ask Kareem?’ He said yes. I said ‘okay then.’ Because nothing could happen on our team without permission from Kareem” 💀

On to the next… @irmobasketball

What advice does Mark Pope have for young, aspiring journalists? I’m teaching an upper‑level journalism course at #UK this semester, and on Thursday, I took my class to Pope’s press conference. I asked him what guidance he’d give the next generation of journalists. His answer was worth hearing.

Good luck to @IrmoGirlsBBall in the 1st Round of the Playoffs tonight. Let’s go handle business! #IrmoStrong

Huge congrats to Nick Emmanwori and the Seattle Seahawks on winning Super Bowl LX! From Irmo to the Lombardi stage. Watching you cap off this season with a ring is something special. Your grind and impact don’t go unnoticed. Photo credit: @MikeDugar

This game may not be exciting to some but this film will be studied by every team trying to mimic what this Seahawks Defense is doing. Great defensive football is art!

Wishing our own Nick Emmanwori and the Seattle Seahawks the best of luck tonight in Super Bowl LX! We’re proud to see one of our own on football’s biggest stage. Go make history!

DON’T JOKE WITH THIS PRAYER: Dear God, Remove the fear that keeps me small and replace it with faith that reminds me I was made for more. Amen.
