Attended Mercyhurst’s Last Chance Football Camp last night! I’m thankful for the opportunity to work with the coaching staff and learn new techniques from @CoachWaring.

🚀 Even if you are a Spread coach, you should highly consider installing Rocket in your offense
✅ Pitch is caught 3 Yards outside the Tackle
✅ Don’t have to block anyone from 3 Tech Back
✅ Gets your fastest athletes to the most spacious part of the Field
Anywho… Here’s 2 Minutes of Rocket Sweep 🧹

The Offensive Line doesn’t need any other position to be good. Every other position needs the Offensive Line to be good.
The most important position group in football.
Matt Rhule (@CoachMattRhule) is widely regarded as one of the best builders of culture in the world.
Much of his philosophy with @HuskerFootball was shaped by his experience as a walk-on at Penn State, where he learned three foundational truths:
1. "Everything Matters".
2. Every person deserves to be held to championship standards.
3. The most important investment you can make is in the person, not the player:
🏆 Championship standards only stick when they apply to everyone. The moment the rules bend for one person, the culture begins to break for everyone. The fastest way to erode trust in a team is to be selective with accountability. If the star player can skip the line, arrive late, or ignore details that would get someone else corrected, the message is clear: talent earns exemption. When no one is above the standard and no one is beneath it, trust deepens, entitlement disappears, and discipline becomes a shared identity rather than just a set of rules imposed by coaches.
🪣 Every player carries water for the program. The star may score the points, but the walk-on who dives on the floor in practice also helps build the habits that win championships. The star may finish the play, but the walk-on helps build the foundation that makes the play possible. When a team understands that every person carries water, no role feels small, and everyone takes OWNERSHIP of the mission.
🫡 Holding every person to the same standard is one of the highest forms of respect. It tells your best players they are not above the team, and it tells your role players they are essential to it. It will take everyone to win a championship, and just one person to mess it up.
The most disciplined teams transform accountability into a shared promise: we will honor each other enough to demand the best from everyone, regardless of role, situation, or title.
Curt Cignetti shares a universal truth about habits and consequences.
"In life - you got freedom of choice, but not freedom of consequence."
"First you form your habits, then your habits form you."
Every choice and action you take compounds. The small decisions you make daily - preparation, work ethic, and how you respond - those become your habits.
And over time, those habits become your identity.
You're free to choose. But the consequences of those choices aren't optional.
Your habits are shaping who you become.

John Harbaugh shares what servant leadership really looks like.
"Everybody wants to be out in front and make a difference that way. But not everybody understands what leadership is."
"Leadership is serving other people. Helping other people accomplish what they want to accomplish. Making a difference in their lives."
Then he broke down what that actually looks like:
"Sometimes it's just listening."
"Sometimes it's just being there for somebody when they're having a tough day."
"Sometimes it's just asking them how they're doing." The core of servant leadership is wanting to see others at their best. Sometimes it just means being consistent.
You don't need a title to lead - you just need to care enough to show up for others.
"To make a difference in somebody's lives, you gotta get outside yourself a little bit."
"And it's not a hard thing to do to make a difference in somebody's lives."
Great leaders believe they serve the team.
• They care.
• They develop others.
• They believe in others.
Coaches: Want a secret to success?
LOVE YOUR ATHLETES.
Show them everyday.a smile, high 5 or a pat on the back is all it takes most days.
The most respected coaches don't try to get athletes to respect them. They create a respectful environment by showing respect, trust & love
