Dan Campbell said, " You can’t just say we’re going to believe and not put the work in."
"I think the belief comes from the work you put in and doing all the little things right."
Your self-belief comes from action.
It comes from doing the work.
Many points to be made about in/out, seed line etc.
Biggest takeaway, to me, is that everyone who follows the sport has huge respect and appreciation for @kenpomeroy
The committee: “What’s a Ken Pom?”
New Mexico Ken Pom 23
Duquesne Ken Pom 86
Both 11 seeds.
So many kids need this advice 😤😤

Adam is a glue guy who will do everything it takes to win. He is a fierce competitor and brings a toughness we need. Offensively, Adam can really shoot the 3 and brings an old school game to make his teammates better! Another St. Louis guy joins the Dawgs! @adamlsommer

PLAYERS:
✅Just because you're a FROSH doesn't mean you can't be a leader.
✅Just because you're a SOPH doesn't mean you learned it all last year.
✅Just because you're a JR doesn't mean you get to be on varsity.
✅Just because you're a SR doesn't mean you get to start.
Pretty awesome to have 2 former players coaching today in the state tournament. @scottieati@Garrett_Franken Who also grow up across the street from each other! Good luck to both today!
PLAYERS: Nobody is entitled to playing time. It's earned during your training and practice sessions. Those sessions start now. Find ways to be valuable every day.
