This is nice to see. Finally as the new norm? I am glad I got ridiculed by all the older coaches for 10-15 years for bringing this up as a suggestion to what "S&C" actually should be. MOVEMENT also!!!! I was kind. Never wavered or rude. Just stuck to my beliefs.
TM Guys please remember we are OFF this Saturday. Communicate w/one another remind each other, & check in on one another. Let's make sure we cheer on our guys & all those about to hit that mat at the State fairgrounds. Enjoy some well earned down time. Thankful&Grateful.
Gregg Popovich said, “It’s your job to make me play you.”
Playing time is earned.
A victim mindset says…I didn’t play because coach doesn’t like me.
A winning mindset says…I didn’t play because I haven’t earned it yet.
Don’t be a victim.
The silent killers of team culture aren’t dramatic.
They are small. Ignored. Repeated.
- One player always late
- Excuses nobody challenges
- Poor effort that slides unnoticed
- Side conversations during meetings
By the time you see the damage?
Trust is gone.
@RickHaasl Leadership is manipulation- but the best kind of manipulation. Convincing people to what’s best for the team even if it’s uncomfortable for them! The real trick is making them happy to do so! Miss ya Coach, I hope all is well!
TM Guys just about a week away from our 1st Session of 2026 Jan 10th @ 9 am. Please park in the back, proper parking lot or the street. Shorts, t-shirt, sneakers, and plenty of water. Look forward to seeing everyone and meeting the new guys. Thankful&Grateful.
