My 9 year old has been part of a wonderful program, Girls on the Run (@GOTRI), where 3rd-5th grade girls run twice a week after school and learn valuable life lessons.

She is participating in her first 5k (!!!) race in May and is fundraising for the organization. Her goal is to raise $500, so if anyone would like to donate, you can do so here: https://t.co/VXtb5QllGT

Walmart giving bonuses & stock grants to store managers, boosting total annual pay for the best staff to $400,000. No degree needed. The typical store has 300+ staff & $100m in revenue - interesting data points relative to athletics departments. https://t.co/kRqhSpXW6s via @WSJ

"Oddly, things get better when you accept the worst-case outcome and focus on improving it.

Worrying about what might happen comes at the expense of improving the outcome."

It's hard to imagine anyone who drips positivity more than Chris Ayres.”

With more than a billion dollars in new revenue expected from #CFP expanded playoff, actions and decisions are needed now to support the health, safety, education, and success of #NCAA college athletes. The Knight Commission presented projections from @CLAconnect at #NACDA23 that show compensation for just 11 football coaches at numerous #FBS public schools significantly exceeds institutional support for all student athletes in all sports.
