Got some good work in this week with my catching coach @Chark_27. Focused on staying under and through the ball when framing and getting my foot down fast when transferring.

Coaching isn’t a hobby. Coaching is a mission. Somewhere in the world, a parent’s praying for someone to show up for their kid. Not just to teach the game, but to lead, to push, to believe in them when it’s hard. Be that coach. The one who shows up, builds up, and never gives up.

[Will Charkowsky @Chark_27]

Love this!

Leave the athlete in a better place than you found it. Lift those up around you with honesty and positivity. Tough love is good at times but caring is ALWAYS good. The power of a positive mindset is LIFE CHANGING!

[Will Charkowsky @Chark_27]

As a coach it’s possible to change lives, easily, for better or for worse. There should a focus on athletic performance but human performance as well. This is when we see the greatest development as athletes and human beings.

@TroyHo72 @DevinWhite__40 @devinwhitefdn Probably not. If I did the cleats would have to go with it. I’d prefer to just hunt for the game used jersey as he was one of my favorite players with the Bucs

[Will Charkowsky @Chark_27]

@DevinWhite__40 you will be missed in Tampa, thank you for the championship and your phenomenal play down the stretch in 2020! Hoping to grab a gamer of yours somehow to hang next to this and your cleats from the 2022 Saints game, same cleats from the painting above!

[Will Charkowsky @Chark_27]

@DevinWhite__40 Hey Devin, glad you got another shot with the Texans! I’m looking for a white Bucs jersey to go with these pieces, any idea where or how I can get one?

Nick Saban is the GOAT of college football.

His success is no accident—it’s a product of relentless standards, a refusal to accept mediocrity, and an intense focus on the process.

Here are 10 Reasons that made Saban the GOAT.

1. STANDARDS - Standards Matter. They set the bar and the Tone. In championship programs, standards are clear and known by all.

"The expectations are what they are here, and we don't run around talking about them."

2. MEDIOCRITY - One of his all-time classic quotes. High achievers separate themselves. You are who you hang with. Hang with the best.

"Mediocre people don’t like high achievers, and high achievers don’t like mediocre people."

3. TWO PAINS - There are two pains in life: discipline and disappointment. It is a simple choice. You choose.

"There are two pains in life. There is the pain of discipline and the pain of disappointment. If you can handle the pain of discipline, then you’ll never have to deal with the pain of disappointment."

4. THE PRESENT - The great teams live in the present, in the now, and they control the controllable.

"What happened yesterday is history. What happens tomorrow is a mystery. What we do today makes a difference."

5. LOSING - The most competitive people hate to lose more than they love to win. Losing is a separator.

"I don't like to lose. I don't expect to lose."

6. RESILIENCE - Resilient Teams WIN. They always find a way!

"One thing about championship teams is that they’re resilient. No matter what is thrown at them, no matter how deep the hole, they find a way to bounce back and overcome adversity."

7. FOCUS - Control YOU.

"Eliminate the clutter and all of the things that are going on outside and focus on the things that you can control with how you go about and take care of your business. Take the other team out of the game and make it all about you and what you do."

8. PROCESS - The best coaches and teams are process-oriented. The process is always the PRIZE.

"Process guarantees success. A good process produces good results."

9. THE HOW - The how matters. A lot. Championship teams do not focus on the "what." They focus on "How" they do things.

"We're not going to talk about what we're going to accomplish. We're going to talk about how we're going to do it."

10. TIMELINESS - Simple but true. Showing up on time is about commitment—every day. Details matter.

"Be on time, because it shows you care."
