@JacksonDavisTTU One of the most impactful statistics down the stretch in games. Often times, teams that win the offensive rebounding battle the last 4 minutes of a close game, WIN! There are certain games as a coach/fan that come to mind that were lost in the final seconds to rebounding.
@SportPsychTips The best way to grow is from learning by doing. Those that grow the most put themselves in situations where they are more likely to fail and then continue to work to overcome! #keeptrying#growth
“We’re all blessed equally with the ability to have a great attitude. It’s on you. It’s only on you. Attitude is only you."
Nobody else owns your attitude. Not your coach. Not your teammates. Not your situation.
You choose it. You carry it. You control it.
You don't lose games because of missed shots.
You lose games because:
- You didn't box out.
- You gave up second chances.
- You were late to rotate on defense.
Winning starts with effort, not skill.
As a coach it is vital to be honest with your athletes too. The only way for them to know where they stand and to move forward and improve is through honest coaching and constructive feedback.
“When you experience failure you have two options. You can either tell yourself the truth or you can lie to yourself.”
Accountability and humility are two of the biggest factors to being successful

Head coaches: Find an assistant coach who will drop everything to help a player:
- Get more shots up
- Watch film
- Study for a test
- Write a paper
- Do an extra lift
- Or just listen
Your scouting report won’t work if your players don’t feel supported.
Ben McCollum won 4 national titles at Northwest Missouri State.
His biggest lesson came before any of them.
Day one, first practice, he walks in and thinks:
"This is what first place feels like."
Not on the scoreboard. In the room.
First-place people work hard — but it's more than that. There's an edge.
And there's energy.
The guys who didn't make it weren't bad kids. They were just moody. Flat. They took life out of the building.
Culture isn't built by talent.
It's built by people who bring work, edge, and energy every day.
First-place people don't just perform.
They raise the room.
