New 5in5 rule? GO JUCO 🗣️

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

Bad coaches talk too much and too loudly.
Yelling and talking more than actually teaching.
Great coaches have the ability to communicate something complex and make it simple in less words and lower volumes so that the athletes can understand and apply it.

Tuesday Thoughts

Don’t lower your standards personally, professionally, or mentally. It seems all too easy to just go along or settle. Better those around you as you continue to better yourself. You deserve it, and they might need it.

Composing Your New Year Email to College Coaches 📨🥎

A new year is the perfect time to reset, refocus, and re-introduce yourself to college coaches.

If you’re going through the recruiting process, a well-written New Year email isn’t just a greeting — it’s a strategic touchpoint.

Here’s how to approach it the right way 👇

1️⃣ Keep it short and professional
Coaches are busy. Respect their time. One clean, thoughtful email goes a long way.

2️⃣ Reintroduce yourself clearly
Include:
•Grad year
•Position(s)
•Travel/high school team
•GPA
•Link to your skills or highlight video

Assume they don’t remember every detail — help them help you.

3️⃣ Share what’s new
This is the value of the New Year email:
•Physical development or new metrics
•Fall/Winter training progress
•Academic updates
•Upcoming schedule, camps, or events

Progress matters.

4️⃣ Show genuine interest (not desperation)
One sentence about why their program is on your list is enough. Be specific. Be real.

5️⃣ End with purpose
Close with a clear but respectful line:
•“I’d love to stay on your radar this spring.”
•“I look forward to updating you as my season approaches.”

No pressure. Just professionalism.

✨ Remember: recruiting isn’t about one email — it’s about consistent, thoughtful communication over time.
