Steve Sarkisian said it perfectly:
“That’s how losers think… Winners win.”
Winning is a mindset.
You can play not to lose.
Or you can play to win.
There is a HUGE difference.
As coaches, we have to intentionally build a team that expects to attack. 🏆
Nick Saban shares an universal truth about resilience and overcoming adversity.
"You gotta have resiliency. You gotta be able to overcome adversity."
"There can be no great victories in life unless you can overcome adversity."
"You gotta be able to overcome it."
The problem? Too many people come up without experiencing difficult circumstances. They've never had it tough. So when adversity hits, they don't know how to respond.
"You're not gonna be the best player on your team when you go in. You gotta stay focused on the process of what you need to do to become that."
That's the gap. Talent gets you in the door, resilience keeps you there.
Focus on what you can control and focus on getting better

The ultimate double play: excellence on the field AND in the classroom. 🎓🥎

UCLA Coach Cori Close challenges the belief that demanding, championship level leadership requires intimidation or humiliation:
“Winning the championship has given some credibility that you can coach in this way.”
“I don’t think you have to demean people. I don’t think you have to make it about you. It doesn’t have to be transactional. I really think that it makes you more competitive, not less.”
“People are like, ‘Oh, that’s soft. You can’t win that way.’ When you’re really committed to somebody’s long-term development, it makes you want to compete like crazy.”
“I’ll dive for every loose ball. I’ll go after every rebound. I’ll sit lower in my stance.”
“I’ll do anything because of the way I care about the person on my right and on my left.”
“It should make you more of a fierce competitor to be driven by genuine relationships and genuine shared excellence.”
“Do your job is going to happen a lot more with people who are committed, who care, and who have a shared commitment to excellence.”
“The best lessons are caught, not taught.”
