"When talent meets talent, talent is no longer enough.
Now it's about character.
Now it's about preparation.
Now it's about consistency.
Now it's about who is relentless -who wants it the most." @inkyjohnson

Talent is required, but habits and character divide good from great.

"You build confidence by doing really hard things over and over, because that's your intent.
That's your focus.
The game honors toughness."-Brad Stevens

Toughness isn't doing it once.
Toughness is doing it every day, because 'every day is the right way'.

"Every team trains.
Every team lifts.
Every team conditions.
Every team practices.

It's not that you do those things.
It's at what standards you do those things that make the difference." @janssenleader

“Mediocre people don’t like high achievers. High achievers don’t like mediocre people. If everybody doesn’t buy into the same principles and values at the same high standard, you’re never going to be successful. Get the right guys on the bus and get the wrong guys off,” Nick Saban

To perform well under pressure, you need to forget about winning and losing, and just focus on giving your best effort and having fun in the present moment!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The best way to impress a coach is by being an unselfish team player. If you always put your team first, your coach will take notice and reward you!

As a captain, you are the heart and soul of your team. When your teammates are lacking motivation or confidence, you need to inspire them with your words and actions!

[Kevin DeShazo @KevinDeShazo]

When you're part of a team, it's no longer about you. It's about the team. Don’t let your ego cause you to view every decision/interaction as being about you, your wants and needs and expectations. Align your vision with the team’s vision.

Be about the team. Humility is the way.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

You can’t be negative after making mistakes in games, but you can’t be indifferent either. Be motivated to correct your mistakes and play better, but stay calm and positive at the same time.

[Zak Blair @coachzblair10]

Players: You WILL fail. A lot. Don't get used to it, but don't allow it to ruin the next opportunity. You can get recruited off of how you fail. Coaches will have you for 4yr they want to see you fail & see who you are! How do you respond? Do you fold? Or do you adjust & compete?

[Next Level Baseball @nextlevelbb]

Upperclassman-Your job is to be a leader! Help the younger guys! Your role is NOT, I repeat NOT to be the cool guy that makes the underclassman's lives miserable. Represent yourself, your parents, your coaches, and your program the RIGHT WAY!
