GENO ON HOW SUCCESS HAPPENS
"...If you just want to be average then you do average work.
If you want to be a little bit above average, you do a little more work.
If you want A’s in basketball, you have to do stuff other people aren’t willing to do...“

Championships aren’t built on speeches.
They’re built on habits, repeated over time.
When you talk about standards, you’re setting expectations.
When you live them, you’re building culture.
Grinders WIN.
Who are your Grinders?
- They say “I’ll do it”
- They solve problems
- They get things done
- They weed the garden
- They don’t ever give up
- They do what others can’t do
- They do what others won’t do
Be a Grinder for your TEAM.
How Coaches Build Relationships with Players:

Hold them accountable
Be someone they can trust
Be honest with them
Be compassionate
Believe in them
Encourage growth
Teach life lessons
Support academically & athletically
Listen to them
Appreciate uniqueness
Every team has roles. 🎭
Step 1: Know your role.
Step 2: Embrace your role.
Step 3: Star in your role.
And if you don’t like your current role? That’s fine. Work for the role you want — but do it while starring in the role you have.
That’s how you earn trust, respect, and opportunity.
