One of my biggest coaching pet peeves:
“My offense.”
“My play.”
“My program.”
Great coaches say:
“Our offense.”
“Our team.”
“Our program.”
The best leaders don’t build followers.
They build ownership.
Words matter.
NEW: Former @FAUFootball Buddy Howell already has Conference USA, Boca Bowl, and Super Bowl rings. His next mission? Mentoring the next generation of South Florida athletes as both a coach and personal trainer. @BuddyFromMiami

We will be proud to welcome Ron Rivera to the Class of 2026 on October 15 in Rosemont!
A cornerstone of the most dominant defense in @NFL history, Ron Rivera helped the 1985 @ChicagoBears bulldoze their way to a Super Bowl title, and made history doing it.
A linebacker drafted by the Bears in 1984, @RonRivera80 spent all nine of his playing seasons in Chicago and became the first player of Puerto Rican descent to win a Super Bowl when the Bears captured Super Bowl XX. He returned to the city as the Bears' defensive coordinator, earning Assistant Coach of the Year honors in 2005 and helping develop Brian Urlacher into a Defensive Player of the Year en route to Super Bowl XLI. Rivera went on to become a two-time NFL Coach of the Year as a head coach, leading Carolina to Super Bowl 50.
Will we see you at the induction ceremony? Tickets are available now at https://t.co/IfdXrDuqgx

What an accomplishment for our program! The coaching staff, admin, fans and community had so much to do with this but our players are the ones who EARNED this. One of the toughest schedules in the country and transitioned into a new league. Ready for the next challenge ✅📈
