[You're Hired, Coach @Yourehiredcoach]

Coach: You are not your record. Your best coaching job may not be the year you won league/district/state.

It’s more likely the year you shifted a culture, had half your team as new starters, replaced a once-in-a-lifetime senior class.

Don’t ever judge yourself by Ws or Ls.

[Wright Ward @CoachWWard]

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

“Most of us want adversity to go really quickly. Like okay it will be tough for a half a day and then we’re done. This is what life is about. You don’t get to control the length of adversity. All you get to do is control your attitude and your focus and just work to change it,” Kara Lawson

[Wright Ward @CoachWWard]

This is accurate

[Todd Wolfson @CoachWolfson]

Former Players:

Home for thanksgiving?
You have no idea how much it means to us coaches when you come back to practice to say hello. Coaches will forever be connected to our players; for life.
Go see your former coaches more often!

[Wright Ward @CoachWWard]

Nailed it.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

If you want to understand real coaching…

Watch Brad Underwood explain it in 90 seconds.

This is why we coach.
This is what matters.
This is the job.

Coaching GOLD. 🥇

This may not stay visible for long, but this was the open for the @TexasFootball - @GeorgiaFootball game. We knew ABC was going to use it, but we didn’t know where or when or how much. That was pretty dang cool, and Dad would be humbled and honored. - CD Jr.

Don’t complain about your role.
Dominate it.

Be so good they can’t ignore you. 💥
🎥 Watch the full clip for the mindset that separates starters from spectators.

Coaches AND players often underestimate how important rest - mental & physical - is! That time to get away from it. Know your team, read your season, tune into the vibe, and it’s pretty easy to tell when closing shop for a few days CAN BE exactly what you need!

[Tony Holler @pntrack]

Brilliant

51 years ago today we had the first quarterback ejection during a game in NFL History.

Vikings' Fran Tarkenton scores a TD and is tripped by Patriots CB Ron Bolton. Fran then fires the ball at Bolton's head.

Both players were ejected after a big fight.
