Athlete: Coach… I think I want to quit.
Coach: Okay. Then let’s talk about why.
Athlete: I’m tired. All the early mornings, the pain, the pressure. Sometimes I wake up and wonder what I’m even doing this for.
Coach: That’s not quitting. That’s being human. Doubt shows up when you’re close to something that matters.
Athlete: But I’m not even sure I’m good enough. I look around and see people stronger, faster… happier.
Coach: Comparison is a liar. It shows you everyone’s surface but hides their struggle. You don’t need to be better than them. You need to be better than yesterday.
Athlete: What if I never win? What if I give everything and still fall short?
Coach: Then you’ll walk away with something most never touch—truth. The kind you only find when you’ve emptied yourself for something bigger than comfort.
Athlete: So… you think I should keep going?
Coach: I think you already know the answer. You wouldn’t be having this conversation if you truly wanted to stop. You just want someone to remind you that it’s worth it.
Athlete: It hurts, Coach. Some days, it really hurts.
Coach: Good. That means you care. And nothing worth having comes without pain. Now breathe. You’ve made it through every hard day so far.
Most quit before the breakthrough!
Don’t be like most!

Football is won (or lost) in the details.
Missed blocks. Poor footwork. A dropped ball on 3rd and short.
Players don't lose games because they didn't try hard enough.
They lose because their habits in practice weren't game-time ready.
Arizona Cardinals OL Coach Justin Frye - Spot Progression (Drop Back Pass)
- "The rush starts at the spot. You're going to lose the rush, when you're trying to read what the rush is. You need to set to the spot & that's where the rush/fight starts."
- Set to that spot, strike, climb and glue. We want to stay body on body.
Hell yeah I’m going to fight against public taxpayer funds going towards private schools.
5.3 million Texas students, especially rural kids and poor kids, shouldn’t be getting screwed over so a handful of wealthy families can get a discount on their tuition.
