Facts.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Your path is your path. Don't compare it to others. Everyone's timeline, obstacles, and triumphs are different. Just keep looking forward.

Self-esteem drives performance.
Very few outperform how they feel about themselves.
Confidence and self-esteem are different.
Build the person - improve the player.

R.A.P.
Recognition.
Appreciation.
Praise.
Praise must be earned.
Critique must teach.

Create an environment where people grow.
Nobody is immune to tough days.

First Wednesday in June means it’s the first week of Robert Graves Metro BR 7 on 7 for 2026! Good luck to all these athletes participating and thanks to all of the schools for being part of the league this year! #RG7on7

The Curt Cignetti College Football 27 cover looks like the poster for a 1994 Disney movie in which a recently divorced NFL head coach decides to coach an underachieving high school team of misfits as a way to reconnect with his son who's grown distant after his parents split up.

[Dexter Thurber @CoachFDT]

Can’t wait. Really looking forward to this season!

Referbished SKC is a huge benefit for the state - I’m excited about this

[Justin @ProPelsTalk]

“You are talking between 400-600 million dollars for every NBA owner. That Money should go towards a massive renovation on the Smoothie King Center. I do know they are talking.”

@FletcherWDSU gives us an update on the SKC renovations

[New Orleans Saints @Saints]

Carrying the spirit of New Orleans on the field for 60 years 💎

[Michael Detillier @MikeDetillier]

41 years ago today.
Tom Benson buys the New Orleans Saints from John Mecom, Jr. in 1985.

Under Mecom’s ownership the Saints never posted a winning season.

Benson buying the team and bringing in Jim Finks, Jim Mora and later on Sean Payton-the franchise dramatically changed.

Coach O is ALL THE WAY back! @OldRowLSU

Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport is receiving $10.9 million in federal funding for major terminal and baggage system upgrades.

This investment will modernize airport operations, improve efficiency, and enhance the travel experience for residents and visitors alike.

@Tidux No - keep in mind moving the XBOX ship to go multi platform isn’t just a turn of a knob to reverse - they most likely have contracts and all where at this point in development they can’t just walk. Give them a chance - internet game community can be unrealistic

[Dexter Thurber @CoachFDT]

@JezCorden Absolutely- she’s kicking ass but this is a long race. Some of this stuff is in motion long before she stepped into the role. You can’t over analyze every little thing . Keep it up @asha_shar ! You are doing great things with XBOX already!

[Justin @ProPelsTalk]

Love what Head Coach Jamahl Mosley just said about his 4 non negotiables

1.) being on time on and off the court
2.) outwork
3.) how you present yourself to your teammates
4.) Accountability and honest conversation

Accountability has been missing from this franchise

[Dexter Thurber @CoachFDT]

@snowlikejonn I’m intrigued by it!

[Dexter Thurber @CoachFDT]

How many of you have walked past this on game day not knowing what it was? Pretty cool reminder of our history!

Behind the Student Union on LSU’s campus, there is a grove of oak trees —each one planted to honor a courageous student from the Ole War Skule who made the ultimate sacrifice in the defense of freedom during World War I. #MemorialDay 🇺🇸

It’s Memorial Day, and we pause to remember and honor the brave U.S. military personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the Armed Forces.
