🏀💯 This past Saturday’s victory over Wayne County marked Head Men’s Basketball Coach Kyle Vanover’s 100th win with Edison State! Congrats, coach! Your leadership, dedication, and passion have built something truly special.
"I have never been afraid to fail.
Young people today, we got to put our arms around them, because kids are afraid to fail.
And they look at it as failure instead of a way to grow."
Failure isn't the enemy-fear is.
Failure isn't final—it's the foundation for future success.
"You can become great on talent alone.
But you can't become the champion you're capable of without working on the fundamentals.
Don't deceive yourself about what the game requires.
Be about practice."
@PaulRabil from 'The Way of the Champion
GREAT Leaders don’t…
🚫 show up late…
🚫 blame others…
🚫 complain…
🚫 put others down…
GREAT Leaders do…
💯 show up early…
💯 take responsibility…
💯 find solutions…
💯 encourage others…
Be Great…
Talent only opens the door to play at the next level.
Once the door is open, what do coaches really look for?
- Character
- Leadership
- Eye Contact
- Humbleness
- Coachability
- Body Language
- How you treat your coach
- How you treat your teammates
Control the controllable.

Top 3 priorities for developing skill with E+R=O:
1. Execute E+R=O well.
2. Execute E+R=O well in increasingly difficult settings with higher stakes.
3. Execute E+R=O well with speed.
IMO Braxton Miller is one of the most important Buckeyes in program history. He was the dynamic leader and player Ohio State needed at a young age between Tressel and Urban that kept the lights on at OSU. He is now displaying the same leadership in the community off the field 🌰
