When I speak to college athletes I tell them 20 years from now you’re not going to wish you would have spent more time on social media or played more Fortnite or partied more. 20 years from now you’ll wish you would have devoted yourself to being the best you can be.

Players: If your coach holds you accountable, you are VERY fortunate. A lot of coaches accept their players doing whatever they want, whenever they want with no consequences. Discipline, responsibility & accountability are life prep! If your coach cares that much, respect it!

If I stop pushing you, if I stop demanding of you, if I stop getting on you, then I probably don't think you have much to offer. – Jon Gruden

Teams with a great culture have a chance.
Teams without one, no matter how good their talent and strategy, will struggle to execute and thrive.
Becasue they can’t survive pressure, change, and adversity.
They flash, fade, then fail.

The future doesn’t belong to teams that create the best strategies.
It belongs to teams that create the best cultures.
Culture is the linchpin to attract talent and execute evolving strategies in a changing competitive environment.
Yes there was an earthquake this morning in Puerto Rico ... all swimmers and divers and coaches slept through it and are safe!
So true! Not being All In for the team only sinks the boat!

Players: Every team has a best player. The great teams best player is also their hardest worker. The best player has an extra responsibility as a leader to show others how to prepare each day. People don’t follow talent, people follow grit & the consistent habits of excellence.

If your coach is being tough on you and demanding consider it a gift. They probably see some things in you that you don't see in yourself.

Doubting yourself is not a reason to back down. It’s an opportunity to step up.
Bants ... take a listen. We will get better as a T.E.A.M. and as individuals. #rollbants

I'm not going to promise you anything. You have to come in, work hard, and earn everything you receive. – Mike Krzyzewski
