This is absolutely TERRIFIC from @TheDaily_Coach
He/She is called “Coach.”
"It is a difficult job, and there is no clear way to succeed. One cannot copy another who is a winner for there seems to be some subtle, secret chemistry of personality that enables a person to lead successfully and no one really knows what it is. Those who have succeeded and those who have failed represent all kinds — young and old. Inexperienced and experienced, hard and soft, tough and gentle, good natured and foul tempered, proud and profane, articulate and inarticulate, even dedicated and casual. Some are smarter than others, but intelligence is not enough. All want to win, some want to win more than others, and just winning is often not enough. Losers almost always get fired, but winners get fired too.
He/she is out in the open being judged publicly almost every day or night for six, seven or eight months a year by those who may or may not be qualified to judge them. And every victory and every defeat is recorded constantly in print or on the air and periodically totaled up.
A coach has no place to hide. He/she cannot just let the job go for a while or do a bad job and assume no one will notice, as most of us can.
A coach cannot satisfy everyone. Seldom can the coach even satisfy very many. Rarely can the coach satisfy themselves.
If a coach wins once, they must win the next time too.
Coaches plot victories, suffer defeats, and endure criticism from within and without. They neglect their families, travel endlessly and live alone in a spotlight surround by others. Theirs may be the worst profession — unreasonably demanding, and insecure and full of unrelenting pressures. Why do they put up with it. Why do they do it?
Having seen them hired and hailed as geniuses at gaudy partying like press conferences and having seen them fired with pat phrases such as 'fool' or 'incompetent.' I have wondered about them. Having seen them exultant in victory and depressed by defeat. I have sympathized with them. Having seen some broken by the job and others die from it, one is moved to admire them and hope that someday the world will learn to understand them."
Millard South just won a Nebraska State Championship 49-0 last week.
They’re less than an hour away from Lincoln.
They had 17 kids sign to play college football.
Zero signed with the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Nebraska is 0-27 in top 25 games since 2016. It has been 2,926 days since their last ranked win.
Matt Rhule is 2-20 against top 25 opponents in his head coaching career.
Should've kept Bo Pelini.
