As an AD, one of the biggest challenges is understanding what athletes and parents truly want. Everyone says they want to win, but too often the communication I receive is centered around why practice is being missed, why workouts can’t happen, or why the commitment isn’t possible.
Winning is rarely about what happens on game day, it’s built in the unseen hours of preparation, consistency, and sacrifice. You cannot claim to want success while consistently avoiding the work required to achieve it.
Too often, “we want to win” really means “we want the rewards of winning without the discomfort of earning it.” When that gap exists, the blame often shifts to the coach instead of the habits.
Great programs are built when athletes, parents, and coaches all align in understanding that commitment comes before results. Wanting to win and being willing to do what it takes to win are two very different things.
So much goes into being a head coach that no one will ever understand. Celebrate the little victories and ignore the outside noise! Do right by kids and everything will fall into place!
The Costs of Leadership: Kirby Smart
1. You will make hard decisions that negatively affect people.
2. You will be disliked despite your best attempts to do the best for the most.
3. You will be misunderstood & won't have the chance to defend yourself.

🚨 ELON MUSK: “IF TRUMP WINS, THE EPSTEIN LIST IS GONNA BECOME PUBLIC”
Every Epstein puppet donated to Kamala Harris. They were DESPERATE to prevent a Trump victory.
@elonmusk had hope like the rest of us.
If the FBI refuses to investigate, the swamp is deeper than we assumed.
If you’re in a leadership position remember to thank those under you and praise them when they’re doing a great job. Too often leaders only interact with subordinates when something goes wrong
