Tom Izzo on the state of coaching in CBB:
"I respect the guys that have left. I understand why some of them did. But my boss told me a long time ago, your job is to be a steward of the game. I don't think right now enough coaches are standing up to be stewards of the game"
Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo:
"The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."
Marcus Freeman shares why "leading by example" isn't enough.
"We don't love leaders by example. Because leaders by example are guys that do what they're told to do, they do everything they're asked, right?"
"But they don't say things when their teammates aren't reaching the standard. We can't have that."
Real leadership isn't just performing at the standard. It's protecting the standard.
"We need more leaders. Guys that are willing to hold their teammates accountable because it's gonna make your teammate better."
Accountability isn't about being hard on people. It's about caring enough to not let them settle.
"I wanna make everybody in our organization the best they possibly can be. So if I let you cut corners or I don't say something to you when you're falling under the standard, then I'm not helping push you to the best you can be."
Leading by example is the baseline.
Leading with accountability is the standard.

#Packers HC Matt LaFleur on if the refs got it right by giving him a timeout instead of calling a false start:
"Of course they got it right! 😜"
(🎥 @NFLonFOX)
The fact that so many dumb people on this app are debating the timeout call is funny. Coach called the timeout the second he saw his guy jump. Good play by coach, terrible play by refs. #lionspackers
