Got a great message today from someone who’s not involved w/the team & watches us on a daily basis.
“I do know what compassion, integrity, & straight love looks like, and you sir, show it most definitely win or lose, mad or happy, you show it.”
Day Made. #UnitedWeStang
Pretty excited to see that the Wall of Fame was updated in the locker-room! I highlighted some of the awesome things I am proud of! Yellow= players I recruited and who played for me. Green = Players who played for me. *’s = All Americans…I know Coach Lister will add some soon!
@coachware This happened to me at USW. Even though i suspended and kicked off players out of the program (grades/drugs/missing or late to team activities/ late to bus trips) my administration (not AD who was supportive) tried to make life tough.
Whenever I have that doubt I didn’t make a difference in one of my players lives.....one of them calls me to ask for advice......I know that god sent a message to both of us to get in touch and my day is so much better. This happened today.
So excited when a former player just face-times me out of the blue to say hello and just chat about life. Love ya Josh. I’ll always be proud to have been your coach. 👊🏼😊

True coaching is not about wins/losses or even championships. It’s about love for your players. It’s about the relationships you develop w/the players you work w/everyday. Creating a bond that lasts the rest of their lives! I’ve heard from quite a few players in the last week!
