Had the privilege of be on a Podcast called B.U.I.L.T D1FF3R3NT. I was able to share my thoughts on coaching and leadership, as well as the influence of my mom and dad had on my life. If your bored give a listen #TUFF https://t.co/tXYlQdlqsg
As an AD, I remind my coaches if your top athlete’s lack of effort is negatively impacting the team more than their ability is contributing, it is time to make a change. Effort is non negotiable. Holding that standard will elevate your team, reinforce your culture, and send a clear message about expectations.
As an AD, I struggle to understand why some parents resist high standards for their kids. Growth doesn’t come from comfort, it comes from being pushed, being coached hard, and being held accountable.
As a dad, I hate seeing my kid disappointed. But I’d rather see him face adversity now than be unprepared later. Learning to handle failure, earn your role, and fight through challenges matters more than any short term result.
Winning matters. Not just on the scoreboard, but in learning how to prepare, compete, and respond when things don’t go your way. That’s what builds someone ready for the real world.

"You can't claim to be the face of the game and then walk off when things don't go your way. These players deserve the spotlight, not a sideline circus."- @MuffetMcGraw

We’ve started the youth basketball season where every team name ends in elite. Play a tournament where refs don’t call anything, zone is played more than not (even though highest levels rarely play it), and a successful weekend is getting a highlight to post on social media
