"Nothing is really fun unless it's hard.
Embrace the fact that it's hard.
Never hope that it's easy."
Stop looking for shortcuts.
Lean into the hard part and build the habits that don’t bend or break when it gets tough.

Linebackers:
Move SQUARE.
SHUFFLE = Square shoulders, square hips.
SCRAPE = Square shoulders, turned hips.
Elite Linebackers stay as square as possible for as long as possible.
Leadership isn't complicated.
GREAT Leaders don't...
🚫 show up late
🚫 blame others
🚫 complain
🚫 put others down
GREAT Leaders do...
💯 show up early
💯 take responsibility
💯 find solutions
💯 encourage others
If I was coaching a brand new Linebacker who had never played the position, I’d do this:
1. Teach them how to move like a Linebacker. It’s not just SPRINTING everywhere. It’s shuffling, scraping, shooting, changing directions, shimmying, etc.
2. Teach them where to LOOK. Teach them their read. Teach them how to progress their eyes throughout the play.
3. Teach them how to build a block destruction TOOLBOX. Different types of blocks require different types of block destruction moves.
4. Teach them angles. Teach them leverage. Teach them how to take away space.
5. Teach them how to tackle. Teach them the approach, the point of contact, the finish. Make them confident tacklers.
That’s the foundation.
That’s where I’d start.
Then I’d build from there.
Linebacker cheat codes nobody wants to do:
Late-night film sessions.
Early mornings in the gym.
Field work in the rain.
Extra reps extra reps extra reps.
It’s not complicated.
Following her showing at the US Open, and a solid outing at the National Championships in Spokane, Morgan Maschmann is listed as a wrestler who's stock is on the rise! We would agree.

“Too many kids today are afraid of failure.” - Doug Collins
What happens when kids never learn to fail?
They quit when it gets hard.
Because no one let them practice getting back up.
Shout out to Aubrey Johnson and Andie Gibson who competed at Folkstyle Nationals in Kansas City today. Both Aubrey and Andie came away with All-American honors, finishing 3rd place in their respective weight classes.
Keep chasing competition, girls!

The weight room is the most influential room in a school.
It’s not a place to hang out — it’s a classroom.
A place where habits are built, standards are set, and character is developed.
James Franklin said, "You're going to fall back on your habits."
"If your habits are good and strong, you're going to be very very successful."
Excellence is the habit and the mindset, not the destination.
You are what you consistently do.
