@FiredCoaches 6:00am practice…kid missed but was at school for 1st period at 8:00am. Asked him why he wasn’t at practice and he said he had a doctors appt he forgot about…we asked what time his doctor appointment was at and he said “I’m not sure exactly, whatever time practice was at”
Not the news we wanted to wake up to this morning. Big Coop had such a huge impact on so many people. It was a blessing to be a small part of your short life down here. They will love that infectious smile upstairs. Love you and rest easy. #FOREVER77
I texted a coach this morning and asked how the new job was going after about a month.
His response was one I’ve heard many times… and lived myself:
“Not bad. Some kids pushing back culture wise. Always worried about staff and numbers.”
If you go into a program and start making the changes that need to be made, be ready for pushback.
That’s normal.
My advice to him:
Water the good grass.
Don’t let the weeds hold you hostage.
Too many coaches start looking the other way because they want to keep players and coaches happy.
They convince themselves they can slowly change the culture.
It doesn’t work that way. Culture doesn’t drift in the right direction. It moves toward the standard you enforce.
Stay strong to your principles.
The right grass will grow. 🌱🏈
