It was a joy to engage with these students athletes over the past season. I'm happy to see them gain some well-earned recognition. As strong as they were on the field, they were equally strong off the field and away from games for this team.

Projected top NFL draft pick, @UCLAFootball edge rusher, Laiatu Latu @laiatu_latu, talking about rugby making him a better athlete and player! (Check @ 1:10 in) "I would tell anyone growing up, play rugby"

@JJWatt @barstoolsports Three steps into the first hit. Clearly a flag. It was a flag yesterday for Mahomes, it's a flag today. The inconsistency is absolutely pathetic. We understand you think every hit on a QB is legal, but defending that no call is shallow.

[Thomas Lyons @tlyons3]

@barstoolsports @NFL @NFLOfficiating the #NFL    doesn't care about consistency in officiating, the officials clearly don't either. Mahomes takes a two hand tag yesterday, it is #Roughingthepasser?? Tonight, Stafford takes a double late hit, one to the head and nothing?!?

[Andrew Ryland @ADRCoachDev]

Really good clip.

[Thomas Lyons @tlyons3]

Proud of the steady work to improve, the perseverance in the face of adversity, the leadership displayed and the contributions these young men made to the St. John's program this season!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Success requires discipline, and discipline requires self-denial. In order to succeed in the long term, you often need to deny yourself pleasure and comfort in the short term.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Giannis is outstanding: “There’s no failure in sports. There’s good days, bad days, some days you are able to be successful, some days you are not, some days it is your turn, some days it’s not. That’s what sports is about. You don’t always win.”

[Thomas Lyons @tlyons3]

Proud to support the rugby team at my alma mater! And proud the school has supported the growth and funding of this team for the long haul!

@willcarling This is the position he choose for the "tackle" - he turned and stuck himself into the path of the runner. Watch the video, it is very clear.

[Thomas Lyons @tlyons3]

@willcarling He didn't need to avoid the collision. He needed to accept the collision, like a soak tackle, he could have simply gotten run into. Instead he turned and stuck in a shoulder, hip and elbow. His decision, not a "reaction", not a play for the ball that resulted in a collision.

You play your best when you have fun. The more you enjoy the moment, the easier it is to enter the zone!

[Daniel Abrahams @DanAbrahams77]

Grassroots coaches are the real psychological geniuses. Not the pros. Not the ones who make the headlines or the ones who make the big bucks…

The grassroots coach is the greatest of psychologist…

Encourage players to be intentional during training, make sure the players understand the why and the proper how,

[Daniel Abrahams @DanAbrahams77]

Practicing your sport more intelligently is often wiser than practicing your sport harder.

How?

-pick specific mini areas to improve (isolate!)
-self-reflect during practice on these areas (meta-cognition)
-gain coach feedback for these areas
-utilise imagery daily
-patience
