How are you improving your weaknesses?
Jay Wright (Villanova) was a Culture KING.
Why?
Here are 5 Jay Wright quotes that shed some light💡.
1: “We have a saying that everyone’s role is different, but everyone’s status is the same. It’s a reminder that no matter how bright the spotlight gets, we are all part of something much larger than ourselves.”
- WE > ME
- Be a star in your role
2: “The most important characteristic any of us have is our attitude. It’s a concept that permeates everything you do. We all bring our attitude to every situation.”
- Attitude is everything
- Be an energy giver
3: “We're not complex in what we do X-and-O-wise, but we do spend a lot of time on how we react mentally to every situation.”
- Simple Wins
- Mental toughness
4: “If you think about how good you are as opposed to what the next challenge is going to be, then you’ve already lost. We have to stay humble.”
- Humble wins
- Gratitude matters
5: “After we won in 2016, the goal wasn't to win another [national title]. The goal was to keep our culture strong. We knew that for us, that was the best chance of winning it again. If we tried to win it another way, we weren't going to win it anyway.”
- Culture is Every Day

I understand that players need to improve but the nba is making more money now. The money has to go somewhere, would you rather the owners keep it for themselves? TV deals keep going up so salaries will too.
