Bill Cowher shares the 3 things he told his 3 daughters - and his 53 players.
"Number one - choices and consequences."
"You can control your choice. But once you make a choice, it controls you...Just understand - with every decision you make, there's a consequence that goes with that."
Your choices and actions matter.
"Number two - it's about the people you surround yourself with."
"Are they people that are purpose-driven? Or are they people that are just trying to feed off of who you are?"
"I want people around me that are purpose-driven. People focused on doing something impactful and meaningful."
"And the third thing - nothing good happens after midnight. Nothing."
Three rules. A lifetime of wisdom.
Your choices control you. Your circle defines you. Your habits protect you.

3. TTU Booster Cody Campbell: We'll pay the buyout for both team's Week 1 opponents so Texas Tech and Texas can play.
Your move, Texas ...

Watching the @NBA All Star game and @TeamUSA at the Winter Olympics, it’s clear that sports — just like music and art — still has the power to bring us together, build community, and remind us of our common humanity.
He’ll ask ur “high school coach”.. not the guru.. not the off campus trainer who’s not there coaching u on Friday nite.. not in meetings/film during the week or on Saturday morning.. not out there when it’s 115.. wake the hell up people
I think Will Campbell is going to be a good pro for a long time fuck short arms. The guy is made of the right stuff. Penei Sewells arms are a half inch long.
Will just needs to learn how to approach rushers with different sets know when to mix in an agressive short set a three step short set and just your traditional vertical set. Have to find a fastball and when in a bind throw it.
This is America. Made up of all different races, creeds, colors, languages, and cultures — one big melting pot. That’s not what weakens us, that’s what makes us the greatest country in the world.” 🇺🇸✊🏾
