Huge shout out to @uclagymnastics for the video they sent Maddie showing their love & support! She loved it and said Congrats to her favorite team on another title!
I worked with Eric for over ten years at WSU and Mississippi State. After losing their oldest daughter last year and now with his youngest daughter battling cancer, his family has been through more than I can ever imagine. Please help if you can.

Eight years ago today, we lost Tyler.
Behind the strong athlete, was a sweet, thoughtful, kind kid, who was struggling w/ his mental health.
We didn’t see the battles he was carrying quietly inside.
We share Tyler’s story & these photos, not just with sadness, but also purpose, because mental health struggles don’t always look like we expect them to—checking in, listening without judgment& showing up can save lives.
Today & everyday, we hope Tyler’s journey reminds you to never assume someone is okay just because they look strong.
Eight years ago we made a promise to Tyler & our student athletes:
we will keep talking, keep showing up & using Ty’s voice to change & save a life. We know Tyler would be proud.
❤️❤️❤️ #mentalhealth #hope #pleasestay #youmatter #foreverto3

Coach Leach used to say “all sacks are on the quarterback.”
As a player, that used to piss me off — because we all know that's not true. Sometimes the protection breaks down, a back misses a chip, or a tackle gets beat.
But looking back, it was great coaching!
It was about ownership and improving the situation.
If you’re a quarterback and you view every sack as being on YOU, you’ll look for ways to improve it:
-Change the play call.
-Adjust the protection.
-Check the ball down.
-Scramble.
-Throw it away.
But if you shrug it off as “the O-line’s fault,” you give your power away.
You can only improve when THEY do — and that keeps you stagnant.
The same principle applies in other area’s for QB’s.
A receiver drops a ball?
-Take ownership. Ask yourself: Did I have the right pace? Was it a good location? Was it the right read? Did I spend time with him after practice working that route?
A missed signal?
-Take ownership. Did I communicate it clearly? Did I hold an extra signal meeting?
When you take this mindset — “it’s on me” — you stay focused on how you can grow, not on who you can blame.
Now, bring that into your own field.
What are the “sacks” in your business, career, or relationships that you can start taking ownership of today?
Because ownership always leads to improvement — and excuses always lead to stagnation.

Mental health matters.
Stay strong, keep pushin, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I’ve been there almost took my own life, depression is real and it’s hard to get through. Talk, make art, listen to music, let it all out somehow…find your outlet🖤
