“You get up every day, you’re entitled to nothing.
You could have talent but if you don’t have discipline and you don’t execute, you don’t focus.
What do you get?
Nothing.
Nothing is acceptable but your best,”
-Nick Saban
Winners assume nothing and give everything.

UCONN HC Dan Hurley - Leadership & Culture
- "Leadership and culture have never been more important."
- "Your culture better be on point, your leadership better be on point, you better be the driving force behind your organization every day that you step foot in to that building. And you better set the tone. You better be a tone setter every single day of what you want to reflect in your culture."
- "I keep my players happy because they know that there is very few places in the country, if any, where they're going to get the same level of commitment in terms of time & effort that's going to be in to their career, skill development & personal development."
- "And they know that every day that they're on campus in Storrs CT... That full staff is in the office and we're working towards making them better. I'm not out playing golf in June... I'm in the gym with them, I'm in the weight room with them, I'm in the office with them."
- "I want my players to feel like they're not going to get better service than they're going to get from our staff. And they literally see a person that is trying to kill themselves on the job to help them reach their dreams and goals."
Arizona State LB Coach AJ Cooper - Search & Destroy Tackling Drill
- Put the Linebackers in murky situations close to the LOS
- Footwork to the middle with both Zone and Counter (Cross Over)
- Shoulders square to the LOS
- No crossing feet on contact in the box
Elite Linebackers pursue every play.
But they don’t just “run to the ball”.
They take great angles…
And always keep their leverage.
Effort is important.
But SMART pursuit wins games.
