Nick Saban referred to him as the Alabama "Head" Coach because he worked with players to reprogram their brains for success and performance.
He is Dr. Kevin Elko. In 2022, he was asked, "What's the one trait that all champions have?"
His answer was ONE word.
He said, "They're UNBREAKABLE."
He said, “You can't break them. They're unbreakable. They have a vision of themselves. They have a concept they believe about themselves and they'll do anything to protect it."
How do they get this way? They do 2 things:
1. They believe in themselves - Self-belief and self-confidence comes from within. Top performers have a vision of themselves, what they want, and they work to become that vision. He said, "They'll protect that vision. You won't crack them." Their drive and belief allow them to choose resilience even when challenges and obstacles get in their way.
2. They take ownership of themselves - They take ownership of their attitude, effort, and mindset through the standard that they set. It's important to create a standard and live to that standard because you build good habits from that standard. He said, “When your habits are powerful and they are effective, you start to win now. If you don't develop habits intentionally, you will develop the bad ones.”. Champions take ownership of their attitude, effort, and mindset.
“A good coach inspires, a great coach teaches habit.” - Dr. Kevin Elko

Before, we talked about what the @WBCBaseball could become. Now we can marvel with gratitude and pride at what it *is*. May the magic of this tournament remain with us in the season ahead — and sustain us until the baseball world gathers once again. 🌎 @MLB@MLBNetwork
Baseball was invented near London in the 18th century.
@GB_Baseball is 3 outs away from the greatest victory in the 250+ years since.
Bottom of the 8th: Great Britain 7, Colombia 3.
@MLBNetwork@MLBEurope@MLBONFOX
To add one more historic feat, @GB_Baseball's win over Colombia is the first time that any European country has ever beaten any South American country in the #WorldBaseballClassic. Since 2006, all against @FEVEBEISBOL, Italy is 0-5, and the Netherlands and Spain are 0-1. #WBC2023
What is Minor League Baseball?
It’s the place where the fans don’t know the players names, but still want their autograph.
It’s the place for first jobs for teenagers, first career jobs for college grads, and last jobs for retired people.
Thanks to NCAA every baseball player eligible for this years draft has leverage. There is no “senior sign.” Interested to see how MLB front offices attempt to drive down draft costs in this scenario.
