“Once you get to the 2nd or 3rd quarter of a game, motivation is gone.
What’s sustainable? Inspiration.
Built on two qualities: love and ownership”
- Urban Meyer
The two kinds of sudden change:
1. The kind that appears out of nowhere.
2. The kind that's been building and expanding and you're only now noticing it.
Critical E+R=O lesson:
"Earn through your response what is denied by your circumstances."
• Circumstances insert friction, barriers, and adversity between you and the outcomes you want. This is the way life is and always will be.
• If you depend on favorable circumstances, you will lose.
• When circumstances are not in your favor, your response must be better and more skilled--good enough to overcome the circumstances--or you will lose.
• When you fail to earn the outcome you want, don't blame the circumstances. You had a chance to earn the outcome you wanted by responding better to those circumstances, but you didn’t. Figure out why and do better next time.
• Meet every challenge, problem, or limitation in your circumstances--no matter how inconvenient or unfair--with discipline in your response.
Get your boys into football and watch the transformation!
Football uniquely challenges boys in ways that boys need but rarely get in today’s society.
We need football because it provides an environment where boys can become young men, and young men can become grown men.
Get in the weight room with your teammates and experience some shared pain. If you are lifting on your own, or with your Dad/uncle/trainer, show up for testing day and show the progress you’ve made. Every situation is different but results don’t lie.
‼️Don’t say in October that your coach didn’t give you a shot.
💪You get your shot every single day in the weight room, on the track, and in practice.
👉You have 220 days until the first game.
🔑That means you have 220 shots to get on the field.
⁉️What will you do with them?

The UNH Football family mourns the loss of former Wildcat Chris Jeannot '12. Chris was a dedicated teammate and a valued member of our program. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who knew him. Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat.
Who do I trust?
I trust the kid who’s nice to his parents, takes school seriously, and respects his teammates.
Because that kid has high character, and high character doesn’t take days off.
