Mike Leach shares a must-listen postgame message on resilience, adversity, and failure.
"Nothing is really, really, really fun unless it's hard. Nothing is really fun unless it's hard."
"We've got to embrace that things are gonna be hard. We've got to embrace to be excited when things are hard."
Successful people don't fear obstacles - they embrace them.
"You gotta embrace to be excited about it being hard and playing extremely hard."
"Even if you get way up on somebody, you want to be as hard as you possibly can because you're pushing yourself. And all of a sudden you're making great plays, you're doing things that you've never done before."
Growth requires discomfort. You have to be willing to look bad before you get better.
Then he ended with one line:
"Embrace the fact that it's hard. Never hope that it's easy."
If you only chase what's easy, you'll never become great.
Embrace the hard because that is where growth, success, and character are built.

Rick Pitino has signed a new deal with St. John’s, sources confirm to ESPN. The deal includes an additional year through the 2029-30 season and a significant increase in pay to make him the Big East’s second highest paid coach.
I’ve watched Mitch Barnhart in action on and off for the past 20+ years. Lately, I’ve been privileged to see him lead up close in my role as a Champions Blue, LLC governor.
He made a tremendous impact on our athletic programs. The man bleeds blue and fostered a culture of competitiveness across the entire department. He also made a tremendous impact in the lives of the athletes, staff, & administrators that he led. I have no doubt he will continue making a lasting impact on students in his new role.
Mitch is one of the best to ever do it, and he leaves the athletic department well-positioned for what promises to be an exciting next chapter. 🔵⚪️
“If you want to be happy for an hour eat a steak if you want to be happy for a day go play golf. If you wanna be happy for a week go take a vacation, but if you wanna be happy for a lifetime, put your faith in Jesus Christ.”
