Dan Campbell said, " You can’t just say we’re going to believe and not put the work in."
"I think the belief comes from the work you put in and doing all the little things right."
Your self-belief comes from action and doing the work.

ATHLETES: As you start your fall sports season, ask yourself...
What role can you bring to your team that will help your team succeed?
Here is one thing you can do...
Be a Spark Plug for your TEAM.
How do you do it?
Here are 6 Ways...
1: BE VERBAL
Winning teams Communicate on the court or field! “A quiet gym is a losing gym.” Be verbal. Talk for your teammates. Communication is contagious. It builds energy and Fuels a team!
2: TOUCHES, HIGH-FIVES, FIST BUMPS
The NBA once did a study on “touches.” Steve Nash led the NBA in “touches”…239 per game. He was the MVP. His team WON. In the NBA…Winning teams had the MOST Touches! Spark your team with Positive touches.
3: BE AN ENERGY GIVER
Winning teams have energy givers. They bring Positive Energy to every practice and every game. These players are critical to team success. Be an energy giver and be a Spark Plug for your team!
4: ➕ BODY LANGUAGE
Body Language Screams! Make eye contact. Sit up. Be alert. Nod in affirmation. Smile. Be confident. Positive body language creates positive energy! It is Contagious!
5: CHALLENGE A TEAMMATE
Sometimes, your teammates are not bringing the spark. They may not be playing Hard! Sometimes they need to be challenged. Leaders Challenge when needed. Be this Leader!
6: MAKE A HUSTLE PLAY
Want to get your team going? Dive for a loose ball! Take a charge! Make an extra pass! Set a great screen! Make a hustle play. Hustle plays are selfless. They show the team what is needed to win. They bring a SPARK!

Summer AAU/Club is great but there is something special about student-athletes competing against rival schools, in front of a crowd of community members, friends, and family, after attending classes all day, while playing alongside teammates who are also their classmates.
We are happy to say that we are doing Mini Cougar Camp again! We love to share our passion for the game with our mini's, please share the post to get the word out! @SouthBooster@SouthCougars@salina_southvb
It’s what we do, we wait for stuff to get easier.
It will never get easier.
What happens is you handle hard better.
So make yourself a person that handles hard well.
Because if you have a meaningful pursuit in life it will never be easy

Powerful stuff from Tang today on recent Tomlin suspension.
"The bible is very clear that the greatest form of love is discipline... I'm thankful that God made me in a way that I'm not afraid of confrontation and I'm not afraid of holding people accountable."
